Message-ID: <4C169610.5020907@dlasys.net> (raw)

     I am trying to digest some things in the carl9170 firmware.

     Many routines are coded to look like interrupt handlers, but the 
code seems to be entirely polled ?
     Am I correct there ? If so do you know if the AR9170-fw code or 
something else might show an example of interrupt handling for the 
AR9170. I must have tx complete interrupts.

     Next there are remarks throught the driver and firmware regarding 
cookies.
     I think a cookie is a u8 that uniquely identifies a packet - is 
that correct ?
     In the firmware there is a remark somewhere that suguests that the 
cookie AND something else are needed - is that correct or is the cookie 
sufficient ?

     Thank you.
