[PATCH] ath9k_hw: Update IFS parameters properly

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

 



Configure IFS parameters read from chip in case of
full rate channel and non-AR9287 v1.3+. And also
read the ack and cts timeouts from chip and increase the
timeout when coverage class is defined. For half/Quarter
rate channel, IFS values needs to be reconfigured.
This patch removes the 2GHz workaround done for
acktimeout(64 us) because of reading acktime from chip.
The mentioned IFS parameters for AR9287 v1.3+ was
verified in HT40 2-chanin mode.
