Not sure. But there isn't a per-descriptor table in the driver. There's
a per-station table, that *can* be used in similar ways, but

Thomas, Dave, Adrian, Johannes,
Thanks for comments and encouragement. I bought the TP-Link TL-WA901ND
access point and TP-Link TL-WDN4800 PCIe card. Had no problem getting
them talking to each other with ath9k, and the rate table contains 52
entries, so plenty to start out with.

Perhaps. However, existing rate control is *very* tightly coupled to
the driver, and it'd be fairly pointless to disentangl
hiya,
there's a tplink RTL81xx 11ac NIC that's growing linux and freebsd
support. I believe it's software rate controllable.
The intel 7260 and later parts also allow user controllable rate
control and provide transmit completion feedback, but I don't know
whether it's enough for your needs.

Maybe something that's usable with brcmsmac? Not sure I'd recommend
buying Broadcom NICs though at this poin
Hi Johannes,
Thanks for the pointers.

Hi all,
I've been thinking about rate control a bit lately. I've written up
some of my thoughts in a blog post
(http://www.openias.org/bayesian-wifi-rate-control), but very briefly
put I'd like to build a rate control algorithm based on Bayesian
statistical inference, possibly by modeling the rate
