After all packets are transmitted the driver has to call ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe. IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_FLUSH stop TX aggregation and flush all packets, called when the station is removed. There's no need or reason to call ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe in this case as mac80211 assumes the session is gone and removes the station. IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_FLUSH_CONT called when TX aggregation is stopped but the driver hasn't called ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe yet and now the connection is dropped and the station will be removed. Drivers should clean up and drop remaining packets when this is called. IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL TX aggregation has become operationalDESCRIPTIONThese flags are used with the ampdu_action callback in struct ieee80211_ops to indicate which action is needed. Note that drivers MUST be able to deal with a TX aggregation session being stopped even before they OK'ed starting it by calling ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe, because the peer might receive the addBA frame and send a delBA right away!AUTHORJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Author.COPYRIGHTKernel Hackers Manual 3.10 June 2014 ENUM IEEE80211_AMPDU(9)
