Setting fields within Tx Descriptor #87

Open willtop opened 8 years ago

willtop commented 8 years ago

To specify certain behaviors of the adapter, I would need to set the Tx Descriptor fields. I am wondering if that would be done within driver or firmware code? Reading into the code suggests both the driver and the firmware are assigning values to descriptor fields.

There are certain redundancy within ath9k driver and open-ath9k-firmware code. If both of them try to assign a value to certain Tx descriptor field, which one would make it effective?
