Subject: [PATCH 01/11] iwlwifi: W/A for the TSF correction in IBSS
Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2008 17:25:00 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1219915510-3647-2-git-send-email-yi.zhu@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1219915510-3647-1-git-send-email-yi.zhu@intel.com>
From: Assaf Krauss <assaf.krauss@intel.com>
This patch is a W/A for the TSF sync issue, in which the ucode's timestamp
is constantly a little behind incoming beacons' timestamps (in IBSS cells).
The W/A simply stops the driver from declaring it has a reliable TSF value.
