[PATCH] mac80211: Reset the power save timer from master_start_xmit.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When a null data frame is generated from mac80211,  it goes through
master_start_xmit and not through  subif_start_xmit. Hence for the
power save timer to be triggered while sending this null data frame
also, the timer has to be reset from master_start_xmit.
