Using the software based channel scan mechanism from mac80211 keeps us offline for 10-15 second, we should instead issue a start_scan/end_scan on each channel reducing this time. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@linaro.org> --- With this implementation I see a reduction of throughput for about 1-2 seconds with iperf while scanning, so the improvement is clear. The problem with the implementation is that ieee80211_rx_status must specify the correct band for the core to not drop the beacons. I have searched for indications in the incoming data, but am not able to find anything useful, so this currently rely on shared state (scan_freq/scan_band) that gets updated during scan. If anyone familiar with this hardware have any suggestions on how to better deal with this I would appreciate the feedback. drivers/net/wireless/ath/wcn36xx/main.c | 62 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------ drivers/net/wireless/ath/wcn36xx/smd.c | 8 ++-- drivers/net/wireless/ath/wcn36xx/smd.h | 4 +- drivers/net/wireless/ath/wcn36xx/txrx.c | 19 ++++++--- drivers/net/wireless/ath/wcn36xx/wcn36xx.h | 9 +++++ 5 files changed, 79 insertions(+), 23 deletions(-)
