Re: [ath5k-devel] mac80211 and kernel 3.8.13 1/2 speed as with madwifi and kernel 2.6.23 and bad respons time
What is the rate control algorithm used by your mac80211? Try use minstrel perhaps.

It seems that I'm using already minstrel. I have found the following in the kernel configuration file CONFIG_MAC80211=m CONFIG_MAC80211_HAS_RC=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_PID=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL_HT=y # CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID is not set CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_MINSTREL=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT=minstrel_ht CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=y CONFIG_MAC80211_LEDS=y # CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS is not set # CONFIG_MAC80211_MESSAGE_TRACING is not set # CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU is not set I have not found in the wireless documentation how to enable other algo? Is there a module parameter for MAC80211 ? On 09/17/2013 12:32 PM, Yeoh Chun-Yeow wrote: What is the rate control algorithm used by your mac80211? Try use minstrel perhaps.

... I think you should start doing some more in-depth system profiling to see where that CPU is actually being used. Saying ksoftirqd is only a little helpful. See if it's handling way too much interrupts, or whether there's lots of card error conditions, or the TX/RX queues are being too frequently checkeed, or ... -adiran ___ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
[ath5k-devel] need documentation about ath5k
Hello, I very new to Linux wireless kernel. I have to build a wireless test-bed using atheros card. First thing I want to do is switch channel of operation dynamically based upon received signal strength. There are many *.c files inside /driver/net/wireless/ath/ath5k directory. It seems very tough for me to find out the particular file to look for specific code. Could you please tell me which file to look for channel switching code. Is there any document that can tell me the purpose of each file in the directory? Thanks and Regards, Suman Bhunia ___ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
