From 375177bf35efc08e1bd37bbda4cc0c8cc4db8500 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vivek Natarajan Date: Tue, 9 Feb 2010 14:50:28 +0530 Subject: mac80211: Retry null data frame for power save. Even if the null data frame is not acked by the AP, mac80211 goes into power save. This might lead to loss of frames from the AP. Prevent this by restarting dynamic_ps_timer when ack is not received for null data frames. Cc: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan Signed-off-by: John W.
