Define buggy. This patch disables carrier sensing on PHY by forcing the RX_CLEAR signal to always be high (that means the PHY always reports the channel as idle, e.g. allowing you to transmit all the way ignoring any other users -some people use that for DoS attacks/testing/research etc-) and virtual carrier sensing on MAC by telling the PCU to ignore it. It does what's supposed to and as Felix told you it effectively kills RX (until you switch them back on). What did you expect from such a patch/approach ? -- GPG ID: 0xEE878588 As you read this post global entropy rises.
