From 0ab337032a0dfcd5f2527d3306d3deeba5f95b59 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2010 10:21:42 +0200 Subject: mac80211: make TX aggregation start/stop request async When the driver or rate control requests starting or stopping an aggregation session, that currently causes a direct callback into the driver, which could potentially cause locking problems. Also, the functions need to be callable from contexts that cannot sleep, and thus will interfere with making the ampdu_action callback sleeping. To address these issues, add a new work item for each station that will process any start or stop requests out of line. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
