[PATCH] ath9k: Modify LED blinking pattern during wifi activity.

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

 



Some vendors require the LED to be ON always irrespective of any
radio activity. Introducing a module parameter to enable this,
so that one can choose between always on or led blink during
activity.
