[shafi] Its good to maintain the extended stats variable and retain the two different functions to update rx_duration. a) extended peer stats supported - mainly for 10.4 b) extender peer stats not supported - for 10.2 > > [0] > Cc: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan > Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter > --- > drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.h | 2 -- > drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/debug.c | 17 -------------- > drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/debugfs_sta.c | 32 ++----------------------- > drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/wmi.c | 34 ++++++++++++++++++++------- > 4 files changed, 28 insertions(+), 57 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.h b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.h > index 09ff8b8a6441..3fffbbb18c25 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.h > +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.h > @@ -268,11 +268,9 @@ struct ath10k_fw_stats_pdev { > };

[shafi] Yes i am bit concerned about this change making 10.4 to update over the existing peer_stats structure, the idea is to maintain uniformity between the structures shared between ath10k and its corresponding to avoid confusion/ bugs in the future. Kindly let me know your thoughts, feel free to correct me if any of my analysis is incorrect. thank you ! regards, shafi
