3 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Shrink the size of ack_frame_id to make room for
6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
7 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
9 To implement airtime queue limiting, we need to keep a running account of
10 the estimated airtime of all skbs queued into the device. Do to this
11 correctly, we need to store the airtime estimate into the skb so we can
12 decrease the outstanding balance when the skb is freed. This means that the
13 time estimate must be stored somewhere that will survive for the lifetime
16 To get this, decrease the size of the ack_frame_id field to 6 bits, and
17 lower the size of the ID space accordingly. This leaves 10 bits for use for
18 tx_time_est, which is enough to store a maximum of 4096 us, if we shift the
19 values so they become units of 4us.
