[PATCH 4/4] ath9k: Move PS wakeup/restore calls from isr to tasklet

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

 



From: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@xxxxxxxxxxx>

We do not need to do this in ath_isr() and it looks like the modified
version ends up being more stable as far as being able receive beacon
frames is concerned. Furthermore, this reduces need to move between
AWAKE and NETWORK SLEEP states when processing some unrelated
interrupts.
