- Isolate PCF code in Madwifi
- port it to the ath9k if possible
- do lots of testing
- send patches for review.

Hi Oleksij,

   Thanks for your reply. I am new to the linux wireless.
Does ath9k has support for PCF implementation ? I couldn't find any
reference about PCF in ath9k.

Do you mean porting madwifi code to ath9k is straight forward ?.
Please give some link or guideliness.

Regards,
Arul.

In long term it is preferable to extend upstream version of the driver
(ath9k) aaand upstream you patches as well.

ath9k has big developer community and good testing coverage.

Madwifi porting to Ath9k

2017-07-23 Thread Arul jothi
Hi,

  I have AR7161 based board which is using customized madwifi driver
with PCF implementation.
I need to port the driver to new board based on AR9344.
What should be the approach I should take

1.   Build Madwifi with current AR9344 Openwrt build

2.   Implement PCF with current Ath9k driver.


Please advise which approach I should take. Can someone help me with
some clue on that.
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Arul.
