From 4a6d105fb27769361a81edf55432f6a11ce8ba9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Fietkau Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2017 16:16:07 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: don't handle filtered frames within a BA session commit 890030d3c425f49abaa4acf60e20f288b599f980 upstream. When running a BA session, the driver (or the hardware) already takes care of retransmitting failed frames, since it has to keep the receiver reorder window in sync. Adding another layer of retransmit around that does not improve anything. In fact, it can only lead to some strong reordering with huge latency.
