Subject: [PATCH 3.14 08/19] mac80211: minstrel_ht: set default tx aggregation timeout to 0
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2016 10:52:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160314175029.806163090@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160314175029.541742468@linuxfoundation.org>

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org>

commit 7a36b930e6ed4702c866dc74a5ad07318a57c688 upstream.

The value 5000 was put here with the addition of the timeout field to
ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session. It was originally added in mac80211 to
save resources for drivers like iwlwifi, which only supports a limited
number of concurrent aggregation sessions.

Since iwlwifi does not use minstrel_ht and other drivers don't need
this, 0 is a better default - especially since there have been
recent reports of aggregation setup related issues reproduced with
ath9k. This should improve stability without causing any adverse
effects.
