[PATCH 36/40] wl12xx: enable AP advanced functionality

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

 



From: Arik Nemtsov <arik@xxxxxxxxxx>

This adjusts FW TX block allocation for connected stations in PS.
Firmware congestion is measured in allocated packets instead of blocks.

Allow a link in PS to queue up to 2 packets to the FW.
