Subject: [PATCH 3/3] iw: Add antenna set/get
Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 17:27:51 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100512082751.26746.43302.stgit@tt-desk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100512082516.26746.19520.stgit@tt-desk>

Add commands to set and get the antenna configuration. The antenna
configuration is defined as a bitmap of 8 antennas. When multiple antennas are
selected the driver may use diversity. Also the driver may reject antenna
configurations it cannot support.
