* ath9k: Remove dead code in rate controlVasanthakumar Thiagarajan2009-07-241-159/+4
| | | | | | | | | ath9k rate control is based on only PER (packet error rate), remove unused code which was intented to do rssi based rate selection. Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| | | | | | | | | | After the cleanup we just use get_rate as a wrapper, skip the wrapper. Cc: Derek Smithies <derek@indranet.co.nz> Cc: Chittajit Mitra <Chittajit.Mitra@Atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211: add helper for management / no-ack frame rate decisionLuis R. Rodriguez2009-07-241-13/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All current rate control algorithms agree to send management and no-ack frames at the lowest rate. They also agree to do this when sta and the private rate control data is NULL. We add a hlper to mac80211 for this and simplify the rate control algorithm code. Developers wishing to make enhancements to rate control algorithms are for broadcast/multicast can opt to not use this in their gate_rate() mac80211 callback.

* ath9k: remove unnecessary IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK checksLuis R. Rodriguez2009-07-241-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | We check for this condition early on in our mac80211 get_rate() callback ath_get_rate(), so remove this check later down the path.

| | | | | | | | | | | This is just calling another helper, so just use the other helper directly. This should make it clear that when do not find the next rate we stick to the current one.

* ath9k: remove unused min rate calculation codeLuis R. Rodriguez2009-07-241-24/+9
| | | | | | | | | | This is not used, and when we need to get the lowest rate we should simply use mac80211's own rate_lowest_index(sband, sta).

* ath9k: cleanup try count for MRR in rate controlLuis R. Rodriguez2009-07-241-9/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This has no functional change and just cleans up the code to be more legible and removes a useless variable for Multi Rate Retry. For regular frames we use 2 retries for MRR segments [0-2]. For the last MRR segment [3] we use 4. MRR[0] = 2 MRR[1] = 2 MRR[2] = 2 MRR[3] = 4 Cc: Derek Smithies <derek@indranet.co.nz> Cc: Chittajit Mitra <Chittajit.Mitra@Atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

* ath9k: downgrade assert in rc.c for invalid rateLuis R. Rodriguez2009-07-241-4/+12

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On x86 this allows us to do the following small savings: shave off 23 % off of the module's data, and shave off 6 % off of the module's text. We save 456 bytes, for those counting. $ size ath9k.ko text data bss dec hex filename 250794 3628 1600 256022 3e816 ath9k.ko $ size ath9k-old.ko text data bss dec hex filename 239114 15308 1600 256022 3e816 ath9k-old.ko $ du -b ath9k.ko 4034244 ath9k.ko $ du -b ath9k-old.ko 4033788 ath9k-old.ko Signed-off-by: Luis R.
