From: Johannes Berg Date: Fri, 3 May 2013 09:16:15 +0000 (+0200) Subject: iwlwifi: mvm: give client MACs time to synchronise during restart X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=016d27e13b08416988fa06013f66e94fa195244a;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git iwlwifi: mvm: give client MACs time to synchronise during restart When firmware restart happens, the timers are obviously reset and the new firmware has no synchronisation with the AP as we program timings to the pre-restart values. The firmware should attempt to synchronise by itself, but in multi-channel scenarios this isn't easy, particularly since it has to try to keep service quality up for other MACs. To make it more reliable, give each client MAC some time to catch beacons when restarting or resuming. Service quality was impacted anyway (or in resume doesn't really matter much.)
