From f89d1bc4271153ac7864051778c0f2443e5cf2cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Fietkau Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2013 14:18:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: use software queueing for multicast traffic Create a per-vif dummy node entry for keeping the multicast software queues. This helps in setups with a lot of mulitcast traffic that could otherwise potentially drown out unicast traffic to stations. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W.
