If I can just get a coherent patch set that I can build, I will gladly join you on the testing ath9k in particular... can probably do ath10k, too - and do a bit of code review... this week. it's very exciting watching all this activity...
but I confess that I've totally lost track of what set of trees and patchwork I should try to pull from. wireless-drivers-next? ath10k? wireless-next? net-next? toke and I have a ton of x86 platforms available to test on.... Avery - which patches did you use??? on top of what? In terms of "smoothing" codel... I emphatically do not think codel in it's current form is "ready" for wireless, at the very least the target should not be much lower than 20ms in your 2 station tests. There is another bit in codel where the algo "turns off" with only a single MTU's worth of packets outstanding, which could get bumped to the ideal size of the aggregate. "ideal" kind of being a variable based on a ton of other factors... the underlying code needs to be striving successfully for per-station airtime fairness for this to work at all, and the driver/card interface nearly as tight as BQL is for the fq portion to behave sanely. I'd configure codel at a higher target and try to observe what is going on at the fq level til that got saner. There are so many other variables and things left unaccounted for, as yet. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
