+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: reduce the need to sample slower
+ rates
+
+In order to more gracefully be able to fall back to lower rates without too
+much throughput fluctuations, initialize all untested rates below tested ones
+to the maximum probabilty of higher rates.
+Usually this leads to untested lower rates getting initialized with a
+probability value of 100%, making them better candidates for fallback without
+having to rely on random probing

+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: significantly redesign the rate
+ probing strategy
+
+The biggest flaw in current minstrel_ht is the fact that it needs way too
+many probing packets to be able to quickly find the best rate.
+Depending on the wifi hardware and operating mode, this can significantly
+reduce throughput when not operating at the highest available data rate.
+
+In order to be able to significantly reduce the amount of rate sampling,
+we need a much smarter selection of probing rates.
+
+The new approach introduced by this patch maintains a limited set of
+available rates to be tested during a statistics window.
+
+They are split into distinct categories:
+- MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_INC - incremental rate upgrade:
+ Pick the next rate group and find the first rate that is faster than
+ the current max. throughput rate
+- MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_JUMP - random testing of higher rates:
+ Pick a random rate from the next group that is faster than the current
+ max throughput rate. This allows faster adaptation when the link changes
+ significantly
+- MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_SLOW - test a rate between max_prob, max_tp2 and
+ max_tp in order to reduce the gap between them
+
+In order to prioritize sampling, every 6 attempts are split into 3x INC,
+2x JUMP, 1x SLOW.
+
+Available rates are checked and refilled on every stats window update.
+
+With this approach, we finally get a very small delta in throughput when
+comparing setting the optimal data rate as a fixed rate vs normal rate
+control operation.

+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: remove sample rate switching code for
+ constrained devices
+
+This was added to mitigate the effects of too much sampling on devices that
+use a static global fallback table instead of configurable multi-rate retry.
+Now that the sampling algorithm is improved, this code path no longer performs
+any better than the standard probing on affected devices.
