Commit Message

Muna Sinada Jan. 6, 2022, 11:43 p.m. UTC
Add necessary functions and attributes to receive updated MU-EDCA
parameters from driver and send to user space, where management
frame are updated to reflect latest parameters.

The updated parameters from driver are part of an AP mode feature
where firmware determines better MU-EDCA parameters based on channel
conditions. The updated parameters are used and reported to user space
to reflect in AP management frames. These dynamic parameter updates
are offloaded to firmware for better user experience, thus details on
algorithm are not provided. This is a driver specific feature, thus
no IEEE80211 spec references.
