Hi, I was wondering what the meaning of this line of code in mesh_hwmp.c in function airtime_link_metric_get is: estimated_retx = ((1 << (2 * ARITH_SHIFT)) / (s_unit - err)); The computation is : 1 / ( 1 - error rate ) Does the variable name imply "estimated retransmissions" ? Also the err variable is calculated as a moving average based on the ACK of every frame tx. It is my understanding that err should be error rate (no.of bit errors per second). How then can a moving average be considered as errors *per second* ? thanks, Joel -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
