From 2f91a96799d155d56a0663dbe00fc45c6721a763 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Wunderlich Date: Mon, 3 Dec 2012 22:21:30 +0100 Subject: mac80211: adapt slot time in IBSS mode In 5GHz/802.11a, we are allowed to use short slot times. Doing this may increases performance by 20% for legacy connections (54 MBit/s). I can confirm this in my tests (27% more throughput using iperf), and also have a small positive effect (5% more throughput) for HT rates, tested on 1 stream.

This regression was fixed by commit be03d4a45c09ee5100d3aaaedd087f19bc20d01 "rt2x00: Don't let mac80211 send a BAR when an AMPDU subframe fails". But the latter commit caused yet another problem reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42828#c22 After long discussion in this thread: http://mid.gmane.org/20121018075615.GA18212@redhat.com and testing various alternative solutions, which failed on one or other setup, we have no other good fix for the issues like just revert both mentioned earlier commits. To do not affect other hardware which benefit from commit f0425beda4d404a6e751439b562100b902ba9c98, instead of reverting it, introduce flag that when used will restore mac80211 behaviour before the commit.

Mesh Peering Open and other frames (WLAN_CATEGORY_SELF_PROTECTED) are valid mesh peering frames even if received from a yet unknown station; the STA entry will be created in mesh_peer_init later. The problem didn't occur previously since both STAs receive each other's beacons which created the STA entry. However, this causes an unnecessary delay and beacons might not be received if either node is in PS mode.
