Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [RFCv2 1/6] cfg80211: export expected throughput through get_station()
Date: Sun, 30 Mar 2014 22:34:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1396211704-4677-2-git-send-email-antonio@meshcoding.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1396211704-4677-1-git-send-email-antonio@meshcoding.com>

From: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@open-mesh.com>

Users may need information about the expected throughput
towards a given peer computed by the RC algorithm.
Export such value through the get_station() API.

This information is useful to the batman-adv module which
will use it for its new metric computation.
