From 5572a95b4b5768187652a346356e39e7542ca6e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Greear Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2014 16:22:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ath10k: apply chainmask settings to vdev on creation It appears it takes more than just setting the hardware's chainmask to make things work well. Without this patch, a vdev would only use 1x1 rates when chainmask was set to 0x3. Setting the 'nss' (number of spatial streams) on the vdev helps the firmware's rate-control algorithm work properly.
