Subject: [PATCH 1/9] rt2x00: Support hardware RTS and CTS-to-self frames
Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2008 18:59:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200804211859.48443.IvDoorn@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200804211858.46659.IvDoorn@gmail.com>
If the driver has set the set_rts_threshold() callback function
to mac80211 it is capable of generating RTS and CTS-to-self frames
inside the hardware and rt2x00lib doesn't have to create them
in software.
Only rt2800pci and rt2800usb support this feature.
