From: Vivek Natarajan Date: Wed, 25 Nov 2009 06:31:54 +0000 (+0530) Subject: ath9k: Ensure a fair beacon distribution in IBSS mode. X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=94db29368a658b13a088db87c7b0bf59b1a7492d;p=linux-beck.git ath9k: Ensure a fair beacon distribution in IBSS mode. Update the beacon queue parameters with best effort queue parameters for IBSS mode. This reduces the number of beacons generated by ath9k and ensures a fair beacon distribution when there are multiple IBSS stations. Also CWmin is quadrupled to achieve the expected percentage of distribution. Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan Signed-off-by: John W.
