[PATCH 1/2] mac80211: make ieee80211_send_bar available for drivers

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

 



To properly maintain the peer's block ack window, the driver needs to be
able to control the new starting sequence number that is sent along with
the BlockAckReq frame.
