[PATCH 0/2] mac80211: stable fixes for UDP packet loss when enabling power save

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

 



Here's a few stable fixes for mac80211/ath9k which have already
been merged upstream. We forgot to add the stable tag on them
so sending these out manually. The patches address an issue of packet
loss when going into power save mode.

The patches in this series apply to the latest 2.6.33.y but for
your convenience I have also backported the patches to the latest
2.6.32.y kernel.

The 2.6.33.y patches can be found here:

The 2.6.32.y patches can be found here:
