In these designs,\nthe antenna must be toggled between WLAN and BT.\n\nIn those hardware, managing WLAN co-existence with Bluetooth requires WLAN\nfull power save whenever there is Bluetooth activity in order for WLAN to be\nable to periodically relinquish the antenna to be used for BT. This is because\nBT can only access the shared antenna when WLAN is idle or asleep.\n\nSome hardware, for instance the wl1271, are able to indicate to the host\nwhenever there is BT traffic. In essence, the hardware will send an indication\nto the host whenever there is, for example, SCO traffic or A2DP traffic, and\nwill send another indication when the traffic is over.\n\nThe hardware gets information of Bluetooth traffic via hardware co-existence\ncontrol lines - these lines are used to negotiate the shared antenna\nownership. The hardware will give the antenna to BT whenever WLAN is sleeping.\n\nThis patch adds the interface to mac80211 to facilitate temporarily disabling\nof dynamic power save as per request of the WLAN driver. This interface will\nimmediately force WLAN to full powersave, hence allowing BT coexistence as\ndescribed above.\n\nIn these kind of shared antenna desings, when WLAN powersave is fully disabled,\nBluetooth will not work simultaneously with WLAN at all.

Minutes latter the unitcast packets transfer will fail as well,\nbecause the ARP entry is expired and it can\u0027t be freshed due to the\nbroadcast trouble.\n\nIt\u0027s caused by the group key overwritten and someone discussed this\nissue in ath9k-devel maillist before, but haven\u0027t work out a fix yet.\n\nI referred the method in madwifi, and made a patch for ath9k.\nThe method is to set the high bit of the sender(AP)\u0027s address, and\nassociated that mac and the group key.
