ah->noise is maintained globally and not per-channel. This is updated in the reset() routine after the NF history has been filled for the *current channel*, just before switching to the new channel. There is no need to do it inside getnf(), since ah->noise must contain a value for the new channel.

The commits, "ath9k: Fix regression in channelwidth switch at the same channel" "ath9k: Fix invalid noisefloor reading due to channel update" attempted to fix noisefloor calibration when a channel switch happens due to HT20/HT40 bandwidth change. This is causing invalid readings resulting in messages like: "ath: phy16: NF[0] (-45) > MAX (-95), correcting to MAX". This results in an incorrect noise being used initially for reporting the signal level of received packets, until NF calibration is done and the history buffer is updated via the ANI timer, which happens much later. When a bandwidth change happens, it is appropriate to reset the internal history data for the channel. Do this correctly in the reset() routine by checking the "chanmode" variable.

When b43 gets build into the kernel and it should use bcma we have to ensure that bcma was also build into the kernel and not as a module. In this patch this is also done for SSB, although you can not build b43 without ssb support for now.

All known ar7010+ar* device and current FW support STBC TX. This patch make use of it and suggest to send STBC if peer support it. I use wort "suggest" since currenly we have separate rate controller in FW which will make decision based on rate and hardware.

The CAB (Content after Beacon) queue is used for beacon-triggered transmission of buffered multicast frames. If lots of multicast frames were buffered and this queue fills up, it drowns out all regular traffic. To limit the damage that buffered traffic can do, try to limit the queued data to becaon_interval / 8. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

This data is redundant, the value can be computed from the desc_size and winfo_size fields of the TX queues.
