This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ath10k: fix max antenna gain unit to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ath10k-fix-max-antenna-gain-unit.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 35e9459e97d404dc4caf480dc8baa4002958b1f4 Author: Sven Eckelmann <seckelmann@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jun 11 19:21:31 2019 +0200 ath10k: fix max antenna gain unit [ Upstream commit 0a491167fe0cf9f26062462de2a8688b96125d48 ] Most of the txpower for the ath10k firmware is stored as twicepower (0.5 dB steps). This isn't the case for max_antenna_gain - which is still expected by the firmware as dB. The firmware is converting it from dB to the internal (twicepower) representation when it calculates the limits of a channel. This can be seen in tpc_stats when configuring "12" as max_antenna_gain. Instead of the expected 12 (6 dB), the tpc_stats shows 24 (12 dB). Tested on QCA9888 and IPQ4019 with firmware 10.4-3.5.3-00057.
