Of course, I could be looking for the wrong thing...

i think even though the patches are ready for submission,
I think the testing them proved to be very challenging, where there
does not seems to be consistent improvement(if not decrease)
in throughput.  I can be wrong.


Does the current ath9k code support beam-forming?

no. hopefully we can support them(yet we need some considerable
amount of time to test  i suppose).

Can you post the latest patch series for this?

And maybe we can make the functionality configurable by debugfs
so that we can test it out easily?

Are there any particular test cases that would help verify the
patches?

Thanks,
Ben
