yep. there's also a per station one that only a parser could love. Example:

./kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/netdev:wlp2s0/stations/04:f0:21:1f:36:e2/airtime

I'm getting on a plane to florida in a few hours, but I'm packing a
ubntlite with me (as a gift for mom). Sounds like no more debugging
required....

It sounds like we are on the verge of breaking out the eggnog, and
raising a glass... (but I'd like a few more testers first - got a c7
anyone?)

A merry bloat-free christmas to all, and to all, a good firmware!
