No, I really did mean implementing the entire PS logic in the driver, instead of having mac80211 do it. > If it advertise HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS it works fine. > so may be we should queue those frames and send it to > HW once it is out of powersave? We could, but I *really* don't want to patch over the messy and broken powersave code in mac80211 now. I really do think that the only way out of this mess is to implement powersave entirely outside of mac80211; perhaps mac80211 could provide helpers for it, but tying it into the MLME implementation and having all the PS-Poll stuff be global etc. is simply wrong today. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
