No, but on tx_completion we could do something like this: airtime = CB(skb)->tx_time ?: CB(skb)->tx_time_est; ieee80211_report_airtime(sta, airtime); That way, if the driver sets the tx_time field to something the firmware reports, we'll use that, and otherwise we'd fall back to the estimate. Of course, there would need to be a way for the driver to opt out of this, for drivers that report out of band airtime like ath10k does :) -Toke
