Ok, that sounds interesting.

With the chainmask stuff, it turns out it was bad to set it through
debugfs... Can diversity be enabled/disabled through debugfs
without worry?

Thanks,

1 = Enable, 0 = Disable. :)

Diversity is used to select which antenna to receive on based on RSSI.
(See antenna.c)

I'll send a v2 with various checks to allow tweaking diversity
only when the chipset supports it etc. :)

Can you document what the various settings mean?

Also, what is the difference between antenna diversity
and selecting the tx/rx chainmask?

Thanks,
