From: Felix Fietkau Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 22:32:12 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: add flag to indicate missing/inaccurate tx A-MPDU length Some hardware (e.g. MediaTek MT7603) cannot report A-MPDU length in tx status information. Add support for a flag to indicate that, to allow minstrel_ht to use a fixed value in its internal calculation (which gives better results than just defaulting to 1).
