[RFC 2/2] iwlwifi: use maximum aggregation size

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Use the values from the peer to set up the ucode
for the right maximum number of subframes in an
aggregate. Since the ucode only tracks this per
station, use the minimum across all aggregation
sessions with this peer.
