RATE_CONTROL_SEND_LO(9) Rate control interface RATE_CONTROL_SEND_LO(9)NAMErate_control_send_low - helper for drivers for management/no-ack frames
SYNOPSIS
bool rate_control_send_low(struct ieee80211_sta * sta, void * priv_sta,
struct ieee80211_tx_rate_control * txrc);
ARGUMENTS
sta
struct ieee80211_sta pointer to the target destination. Note that
this may be null.
priv_sta
private rate control structure. This may be null.
txrc
rate control information we sholud populate for mac80211.
DESCRIPTION
Rate control algorithms that agree to use the lowest rate to send
management frames and NO_ACK data with the respective hw retries should
use this in the beginning of their mac80211 get_rate callback. If true
is returned the rate control can simply return. If false is returned we
guarantee that sta and sta and priv_sta is not null.
Rate control algorithms wishing to do more intelligent selection of
rate for multicast/broadcast frames may choose to not use this.
