Re: [PATCH 1/2] mac80211: add flag to indicate HW only Tx-agg support

Hi,

When this flag is set, Tx aggregations will not be initiated even
if the hardware supports A-MPDU aggregation in general. This flag
is required for devices supporting (partial) software Rx-aggregation.
Is the hardware unable to do TX aggregation?
Or is it just not implemented?
Or is it entirely done in hw?

Instead of cluttering mac80211 with hw flags you could also just disallow tx
aggregation sessions in the ampdu_action callback in the driver.
