From c3e5d7181afb66657393066bccce0956fab09ab3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emmanuel Grumbach Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2013 10:20:36 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: audit single frames from AGG queue in RS The rate scaling won't treat the information in a frame with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set if IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU is cleared. But all the frames coming from an AGG tx queue have IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set, and IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU is set only if the frame was sent in an AMPDU. This means that all the data in frames in AGG tx queues that aren't sent as an AMPDU is thrown away. This is even more harmful when in bad link conditions, the frames are sent in an AMPDU and then finally sent as single frame. So a lot of failures weren't reported and the rate scaling got stuck in high rates leading to very poor connectivity. Fix that by clearing IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU when the frame isn't part of an AMPDU. This bug was introduced by 2eb81a40aa521035ff9c8c8309e482dff523f8c9 iwlwifi: don't clear CTL_AMPDU on frame status This fix basically reverts the aforementioned commit.
