[PATCH v3 02/12] ath9k: validate rx antenna settings

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

 



Many chips are not able to deal with non-consecutive rx antenna selections
and respond with calibration errors, reset errors, etc.
When an antenna is selected as a tx antenna, also flag it for rx to avoid
chip issues.
