From 7dd43d356e739ea0fbeb832722fec36ba4e47540 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Ott Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2013 04:00:55 +0000 Subject: mac802154: Do not try to resend failed packets When ops->xmit() fails, drop the packet. Devices which support hardware ack and retry (which include all devices currently supported by mainline), will automatically retry sending the packet (in the hardware) up to 3 times, per the 802.15.4 spec. There is no need, and it is incorrect to try to do it in mac802154. Signed-off-by: Alan Ott Signed-off-by: David S.
