The following commit has been merged in the batman-adv/next branch: commit bdd37bed619b2445b2a04f398a7fe34b1e416172 Author: Amitkumar Karwar akarwar@marvell.com Date: Fri Aug 3 18:06:04 2012 -0700
mwifiex: improve scan delay logic during Tx traffic
Earlier scan command was postponed by 20msec multiple times to give preference to Tx traffic until we find empty wmm queue.
There is a corner case in which wmm queue becomes empty immediately after processing the packet(before 20msec) and there may be next packet coming after some time. In this case we should not resume scan operation.
We will use new flag to check Tx traffic and resume scan operation only if there is no traffic for 200msec.
