Well, that function doesn't exist in this patch... > What would be more favourable then? I guess you can tell I'm not in a good mood today. I think any use of get_tsf() for operation is a complete waste of time, there's no way you can get the timings correct. You could be preempted, and suddenly sleep for a few tens or hundreds milliseconds, so none of this makes any sense... To properly do it you have to do calculations in relative times and let the device apply them. johannes _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.open80211s.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel
