Subject: adding ba_policy member in drv_ampdu_action op - request information
Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:10:59 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <95cd69900bf76c0024d3a0838ed38d30@posedge.com> (raw)

Hi,

presently in code, the block ack policy is not sent by mac80211 to the 
lower level driver via the ampdu_action callback.

The mac80211 while transmitting a block ack (ADDBA)request, hardcodes 
the block ack methodology to immediate block ack.

on the receive side, the delayed block ack bit is checked along-with 
the capability of the receiver station to support delayed block ack. 
even if the station supports delayed block ack, mac80211 does not send 
the ba_policy down to the driver.

should ba_policy be sent to the driver so that lower level drivers can 
take a call as to send block ack response in a delayed manner at its 
convenience?

looking forward to some information
thanks in advance
Vivek
