- Store the previous and current rate set in the driver + the TSF value at the time of the switch. - Use the tx status TSF value to determine which rate set needs to be used as reference. - Report only short or long GI rates for a single status event, not a mix. - The hardware reports the last used rate index. Use it along with the retry count to figure out what rate was used for the first attempt. - Use the same retry count value for all rate slots to make this calculation work. - Derive the probe rate from the current rateset instead of the skb cb - Do not wait for a status report for the probe frame before removing the probe rate from the rate table. Do it immediately after it was referenced in a tx status report. - Use the first half of the first rate retry budget for the probe rate in order to avoid using too many retries on that rate - Switch from lower rates to higher rates more conservatively - enable hardware rate up/down selection Reviewed-by: Ryder Lee <ryder.lee@mediatek.com> Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
