This also makes it possible to ensure all TXQs' deficits are increased in the case where the rotation in may_transmit is not effective because TXQs are not scheduled in round-robin order by the hardware. As part of this, bring back the flag that marks a TXQ as throttled. - Rename ieee80211_schedule_txq() to ieee80211_return_txq() and add a check of empty TXQs inside it, so the driver can just call it unconditionally. - Add a call to ieee80211_sta_register_airtime() from the existing tx_status path if tx_time is set in the tx_info status field. - Reorder the patches to the cfg80211 airtime changes come before the changes to mac80211. I didn't port over Kan's "airtime queue limits" stuff yet, partly because I ran out of time, and partly because I wasn't use if he wanted to do it himself :) -Toke --- Toke Høiland-Jørgensen (4): mac80211: Add TXQ scheduling API cfg80211: Add airtime statistics and settings mac80211: Add airtime accounting and scheduling to TXQs ath9k: Switch to mac80211 TXQ scheduling and airtime APIs drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k.h | 14 -- drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/debug.c | 3 drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/debug.h | 8 - drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/debug_sta.c | 54 ------ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/init.c | 3 drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c | 9 - drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c | 244 ++++++++-------------------- include/net/cfg80211.h | 10 + include/net/mac80211.h | 114 +++++++++++++ include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h | 15 ++ net/mac80211/agg-tx.c | 2 net/mac80211/cfg.c | 3 net/mac80211/debugfs.c | 3 net/mac80211/debugfs_sta.c | 51 ++++++ net/mac80211/driver-ops.h | 9 + net/mac80211/ieee80211_i.h | 12 + net/mac80211/main.c | 6 + net/mac80211/sta_info.c | 51 ++++++ net/mac80211/sta_info.h | 13 + net/mac80211/status.c | 6 + net/mac80211/tx.c | 134 +++++++++++++++ net/mac80211/util.c | 55 ++++++ net/wireless/nl80211.c | 29 +++ 23 files changed, 575 insertions(+), 273 deletions(-) X-Clacks-Overhead: GNU Terry Pratchett
