Subject: [PATCH v4 2/2] mac80211: Support ht-cap over-rides.
Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2011 13:10:40 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1320437440-6463-2-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1320437440-6463-1-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com>
From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
This implements ht-cap over-rides for mac80211 drivers.
HT may be disabled, making an /a/b/g/n station act like an
a/b/g station. HT40 may be disabled forcing the station to
be HT20 even if the AP and local hardware support HT40.
MAX-AMSDU may be disabled.
AMPDU-Density may be increased.
AMPDU-Factor may be decreased.
This has been successfully tested with ath9k using patched
wpa_supplicant and iw.
