[PATCH 1/3] cfg80211: Separate available antennas for RX and TX

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

 



As has been pointed out by Daniel Halperin some devices (e.g. Intel IWL5100)
can only TX from a subset of RX antennas, so use separate availability masks
for RX and TX.
