Subject: [PATCH] ath5k: Update EEPROM code
Date: Sun, 21 Dec 2008 04:47:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081221024739.GA13665@makis> (raw)
*Read misc2...6 values from eeprom since we want to use them (fixes wrong power calibration info offset on RF2413+ chips)
*Initialize num_piers to 0 for RF2413 chips (note that we read 2GHz frequency piers while
reading mode sections, we have to ignore them -usualy they are 0xff anyway but during
my tests i got a 1 on b mode with no data- and use the newer eemap.
*Add some more comments (please forgive my poor English ;-( ) and some minor code cleanup
*Tested on 2425 and 2112 and has the same data with ath_info (i wrote some debug code
on debug.c to print everything like ath_info but i haven't tested it yet on 5111 and it's
full of > 80 col lines, if anyone wants to play with it let me know).
