Subject: [PATCH 05/12] ath5k: Stop queues only for NF calibration
Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 18:40:07 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100512094007.6575.34837.stgit@tt-desk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100512093947.6575.99595.stgit@tt-desk>
As far as we know, only NF calibration interferes with RX/TX so we can
leave the queues enabled for the other calibrations.
BTW: Stopping the queues is not enough for avoiding transmissions, since there
might be packets in the queue + beacons are also sent regularly! But i leave it
like this until we have a better solution (stopping TX DMA?).
