Err, this cannot possibly be sufficient. mac80211 already *has* this functionality built into it, so you need to tie the two together, and if you need to offload it to the device then you need to also bypass the mac80211 implementation. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Store the low ack threshold configured by user in BSS config. This will be used by driver for triggering low ack event whenever the station is not ACKing the number of frames mentioned in threshold.
