[PATCH for-4.9 0/2] wlcore performance improvement fixes

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

 



Hi Greg,

Please consider following wlcore performance fixes for linux-4.9.y.

These wlcore patches add a functionality in which the firmware is able
to notify the driver that the aggregation window size must be changed,
and in turn the driver will notify mac80211. Here is the original
submission: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg153522.html

We run into a performance issue recently on android-4.9 and earlier
kernels with AOSP on Hikey(using wl1835 module). Here is the bug
report: https://bugs.96boards.org/show_bug.cgi?id=497. These two
patches fix this performance regression.

Maxim Altshul (2):
  wlcore: Pass win_size taken from ieee80211_sta to FW
  wlcore: Add RX_BA_WIN_SIZE_CHANGE_EVENT event
