[PATCH 1/3] ath9k_hw: fix potential spurious tx error bit interpretation

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

 



According to documentation, AR_ExcessiveRetries, AR_Filtered and
AR_FIFOUnderrun are only valid if AR_FrmXmitOK is clear.

Not checking this might result in suboptimal FIFO settings, unnecessary
retransmissions, or other connectivity issues.
