This bug was introduced by the following commit Author: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Apr 15 17:38:46 2010 -0400 ath9k: Remove ATH9K_TX_SW_ABORTED and introduce a bool for this purpose Wrong buffer is checked for bf_tx_aborted field in ath_tx_num_badfrms(), this may result in a rate scaling with wrong feedback (number of unacked frames in this case). It is the last one in the chain of buffers for an aggregate frame that should be checked. Also it misses the initialization of this field in the buffer, this may lead to a situation where we stop the sw retransmission of failed subframes associated to this buffer.
