[PATCH] ath9k: fix rate control tx status handling for A-MPDU

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

 



Currently the rate control tx status update gets called for every
subframe of an A-MPDU, and ath9k marks the frame with the relevant
status update with an internal flag. This not suitable for rate control
algorithms using the standard mac80211 rate control API, so fix this by
using IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU for marking the correct frames that
should be processed.
