On power management of ath5k

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

 



Hi All,

I encountered problems when I tried to enable power saving mode with
PS-POLL (ath5k with last kernel from git 2.6.33).
I saw from the linux wireless' website that this mode can be enabled
by iwconfig,
but the command (wireless-tools version 29 on my machine) always gives
an error about invalid parameters.

So I traced ath5k's code and found ath5k_hw_enable_pspoll() is called
only when aid is not 0. Is this the place where
a STA can enable/disable PS-POLL based power saving? I thought that
there should be some code to force outgoing
packets to have power management bit set, but I couldn't locate the
code. Any suggestions on how I can make this mode work?

Thank you for your time,

Jun
