Subject: [Patch] mac80211: add rts-cts for dynamic SMPS stations
Date: Mon, 15 Apr 2013 12:03:05 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <516B9F21.2080304@posedge.com> (raw)

Checking whether dynamic SMPS is enabled at the receiver station for
which packet is intended to be transmitted. Enable RTS
protection for multi-stream rates for such packets.
