      iwlwifi: correct 6000 EEPROM regulatory address · f2fa1b01
      Shanyu Zhao 提交于
      For 6000 series, the 2.4G HT40 band regulatory settings address in EEPROM
      was off by 2.
      
      Before the fix, you'll see this in dmesg:
      [79535.788877] ieee80211 phy8: U iwl_mod_ht40_chan_info HT40 Ch. 7 [2.4GHz]
      WIDE (0x61 0dBm): Ad-Hoc not supported
      [79535.788880] ieee80211 phy8: U iwl_mod_ht40_chan_info HT40 Ch. 11 [2.4GHz]
      WIDE (0x61 0dBm): Ad-Hoc not supported
      
      And after the fix:
      [91132.688706] ieee80211 phy14: U iwl_mod_ht40_chan_info HT40 Ch. 7 [2.4GHz]
      IBSS ACTIVE WIDE (0x6f 0dBm): Ad-Hoc supported

      iwlwifi: Use RTS/CTS as the preferred protection mechanism for 6000 series · 73871f71
      Wey-Yi Guy 提交于
      When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection
      mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field
      in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use
      protection.
      
      The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3:
      Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the
      BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT
      stations in a 20 MHz BSS
      Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or
      secondary channels
      Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one
      20 MHz HT station is associated.
      Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS.
      
      When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the
      Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or
      CTS-to-Self.
      
      By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less
      overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better
      protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in
      highly-congested environment.
      
      For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the
      recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.
