From e6a9854b05c1a6af1308fe2b8c68f35abf28a3ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2008 12:40:02 +0200 Subject: mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control API So after the previous changes we were still unhappy with how convoluted the API is and decided to make things simpler for everybody. This completely changes the rate control API, now taking into account 802.11n with MCS rates and more control, most drivers don't support that though.
