[PATCH v2 00/10] wl12xx: AP-mode per link PSM

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

 



This patchset introduces per-link PSM for AP-mode. The PS status of each
link is updated from FW.
The wl12xx concept of PSM is different from the mac80211 one - some data
must remain in FW for a link in PSM since the TIM is updated automatically
by FW. An exported function to manually toggle PSM in mac80211 is added
to bridge this gap.

We set up a skb-queue per link which allows for a cleaner link
disconnection and prepares the code for regulating each link separately.

v1->2: Changed mac80211 PS state change exported functions

A few other AP-mode related small bug fixes and enchancements are included.

  wl12xx: fix potential race condition with TX queue watermark
  wl12xx: AP-mode - fix race condition on sta connection
  wl12xx: AP-mode - TX queue per link in AC
  mac80211: do not calc frame duration when using HW rate-control
  wl12xx: report invalid TX rate when returning non-TX-ed skbs
  mac80211: add HW flag for disabling auto link-PS in AP mode
  wl12xx: AP-mode - support HW based link PS monitoring
  wl12xx: AP mode - fix bug in cleanup of wl1271_op_sta_add()
  wl12xx: AP-mode - count free FW TX blocks per link
  wl12xx: AP-mode - management of links in PS-mode
