··· 1 1 This is a list of things that need to be done to get this driver out of the 2 2 staging directory. 3 3 4 - - The HIF API is not yet clean enough. 5 - 6 - - The code that check the corectness of received message (in rx_helper()) can 7 - be improved. See: 8 - https://lore.kernel.org/driverdev-devel/2302785.6C7ODC2LYm@pc-42/ 9 - 10 4 - As suggested by Felix, rate control could be improved following this idea: 11 5 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/3099559.gv3Q75KnN1@pc-42/ 12 - 13 - - Feature called "secure link" should be either developed (using kernel 14 - crypto API) or dropped. 15 - 16 - - The device allows to filter multicast traffic. The code to support these 17 - filters exists in the driver but it is disabled because it has never been 18 - tested. 19 - 20 - - In wfx_cmd_send(), "async" allow to send command without waiting the reply. 21 - It may help in some situation, but it is not yet used. In add, it may cause 22 - some trouble: 23 - https://lore.kernel.org/driverdev-devel/alpine.DEB.2.21.1910041317381.2992@hadrien/ 24 - So, fix it (by replacing the mutex with a semaphore) or drop it. 25 6
