Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] mac80211: minstrel_ht: set A-MSDU tx limits based on selected max_prob_rate
Date: Thu,  3 Mar 2016 22:59:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457042341-72716-2-git-send-email-nbd@openwrt.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1457042341-72716-1-git-send-email-nbd@openwrt.org>

Prevents excessive A-MSDU aggregation at low data rates or bad
conditions.
