From 10275a53c5ed0ddc826449d6df052bb41a1fcbce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vivek Natarajan Date: Thu, 11 Mar 2010 13:10:03 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Retry null data frame for power save commit 375177bf35efc08e1bd37bbda4cc0c8cc4db8500 upstream. 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. Linville Signed-off-by: Luis R.
