[PATCH 0/5] v3 HT support for mesh

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

 



This patchset adds basic HT support for mesh nodes. We avoid the question of
how to negotiate channel types, by simply disallowing peering with mismatched
HT modes.

Many thanks to Luis Rodriguez for his assistance, and Ashok Nagarajan for
co-authoring this patchset.

v2: 
	Remove outdated BA comments (Christian)

v3:
	Guido R. Hiertz was kind enough to point out:

	"IEEE 802.11s-2011 states that mesh STAs use the default EDCA parameter
	set only. Clause 9.1.3.1 in 802.11s-2011 reads: "When communicating
	within a BSS, the EDCA parameters used are […] from the default values
	for the parameters […] when the STA is a mesh STA." Thus, all mesh STAs
	use the same (default) EDCA parameter set."

	So resubmitting without the WMM patches.
