From 12977154e7cb4d72b1295f009a040c56a7e05d90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Cahill, Ben M" Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2006 02:58:02 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] ipw2200: Set a meaningful silence threshold value Set a meaningful silence threshold value (replacing our previous "0" default), which gets rid of the gratuitous "Link deterioration" notifications that we've been receiving from firmware. This notification feature tells the driver information to help it determine when to pre-emptively restart the firmware/ucode in anticipation of firmware errors! But since setting this new threshold, I haven't seen any such notifications. At least it keeps the logs a little less busy. Signed-off-by: Cahill, Ben M Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi Signed-off-by: John W.
