I suggest that you use the mac80211 layer. Check out the wireless-dev branch of Linux from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-dev.git using git. Enable bcm43xx_mac80211 driver. The rate control algorithm for mac80211 can be found in net/mac80211/rc80211_simple.c. I would suggest that you try to port ONOE and AMRR algorithms from MadWifi to the API used by rc80211_simple.c. The "Sample" algorithm has some Atheros specific parts and cannot be ported as is. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
