[PATCH rtw-next v2 5/5] wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8192du: enable USB RX aggregation
From: Ho Jie Feng
Date: Tue Nov 10 2026 - 03:13:53 EST
Allow RX aggregation of up to 48 pages of 128 bytes or 24 with two MACs.
In an aggregated transfer, rtl92du_rx_segregate_hdl() copies each
frame into a new skb with room for the radiotap header like in usb.c.
The last frame reuses the original skb by pulling it to the frame's start
and trimmed to its length.
Test results (2.4 GHz):
before after
TX 5.2 6.4
RX 27.1 32.0
