Subject: [RFC] mac80211: ignore PSM bit of reordered frames
Date: Sun, 26 Dec 2010 20:56:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1PWwiD-0003TF-Oo@debian64.daheim> (raw)
This patch tackles one of the problems of my
reorder release timer patch from August.
<http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg57214.html>
=>
What if the reorder release triggers and ap_sta_ps_end
(called by ieee80211_rx_h_sta_process) accidentally clears
the WLAN_STA_PS_STA flag, because 100ms ago - when the STA
was still active - frames were put into the reorder buffer.
Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com>
---
Alternatively, we could flush the per-tid STA reorder buffer
content in ap_sta_ps_start, so the buffer is empty.
