Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: don't apply flow control on management frames
|
|
|
|
In some cases (depending on the driver, but it's true e.g. for
|
|
iwlwifi) we're using an internal TXQ for management packets,
|
|
mostly to simplify the code and to have a place to queue them.
|
|
However, it appears that in certain cases we can confuse the
|
|
code and management frames are dropped, which is certainly not
|
|
what we want.
|
|
|
|
Short-circuit the processing of management frames. To keep the
|
|
impact minimal, only put them on the frags queue and check the
|
|
tid == management only for doing that and to skip the airtime
|
|
fairness checks, if applicable.
