[PATCH v2] ath6kl: Implement support for power parameter control from userspace

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

 



In order to allow user space based control of power parameters, we use
available debugfs infrastructure. With these features user can control
power consumption by adjusting various sleep/wake up related parameters.
The feature has been added for testing purposes. All 5 parameters are
mandatory in correct order. They have to be written to the power_params
file. These are:

1) idle_period
2) no_of_pspoll
3) dtim_policy
4) tx_wakeup_policy
5) no_tx_to_wakeup

Example:

echo "200 1 0 1 1" > power_params
