[PATCH] mac80211: init rate-control for TDLS sta when supp-rates are known

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

 



Initialize rate control algorithms only when supported rates are known
for a TDLS peer sta. Direct Tx between peers is not allowed before the
link is enabled. In turn, this only occurs after a change_station()
call that sets supported rates.
