[PATCH v3 2/2] mac80211: fix mesh airtime link metric estimating

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

 



Airtime link metric estimation was broken in HT mesh, use
cfg80211_calculate_bitrate to get the right rate value.

Also factor out tx rate copying from sta_set_sinfo().

v2:
factor out rate copying (Johannes)

v3:
just factor out tx rate copying (Johannes)
