This patch modify d80211 to add SIOCSIWRATE and SIOCGIWRATE commands. this patch almost does the same thing as in PRISM2_HOSTAPD_SET_RATE_SETS.I don't think I would like to get this applied since this seems to be changing the design on how the per-STA TX rate limiting is done in a way that does not match the original design and no justification has been given for that change so far. Some comments below.
I agree with Jouni. We definitely want similar feature but it needs to be carefully designed (and no, we are not limited by the limitations of WE). I'm not going to apply the patch. Jiri -- Jiri Benc SUSE Labs
