Wi-Fi functions for WLAN low power modes.
◆ whd_wifi_enable_powersave()
Enables powersave mode on specified interface without regard for throughput reduction.
This function enables (legacy) 802.11 PS-Poll mode and should be used to achieve the lowest power consumption possible when the Wi-Fi device is primarily passively listening to the network
- Parameters
-
| ifp | Pointer to handle instance of whd interface |
- Returns
- WHD_SUCCESS or Error code
◆ whd_wifi_enable_powersave_with_throughput()
| uint32_t whd_wifi_enable_powersave_with_throughput |
( |

uint16_t |
return_to_sleep_delay |

) |
| |
Enables powersave mode on specified interface while attempting to maximise throughput.
Network traffic is typically bursty. Reception of a packet often means that another packet will be received shortly afterwards (and vice versa for transmit).
In high throughput powersave mode, rather then entering powersave mode immediately after receiving or sending a packet, the WLAN chip waits for a timeout period before returning to sleep.
- Parameters
-
| ifp | Pointer to handle instance of whd interface |
| return_to_sleep_delay | The variable to set return to sleep delay. return to sleep delay must be set to a multiple of 10 and not equal to zero. |
- Returns
- WHD_SUCCESS if power save mode was successfully enabled Error code if power save mode was not successfully enabled
◆ whd_wifi_get_powersave_mode()
| uint32_t whd_wifi_get_powersave_mode |
( |
whd_interface_t |

|
|
uint32_t * |
value |
|
) |
| |
Get powersave mode on specified interface.
- Parameters
-
| ifp | Pointer to handle instance of whd interface |
| value | Value of the current powersave state PM1_POWERSAVE_MODE, PM2_POWERSAVE_MODE, NO_POWERSAVE_MODE |
- Returns
- WHD_SUCCESS or Error code
◆ whd_wifi_disable_powersave()
Disables 802.11 power save mode on specified interface.
- Parameters
-
| ifp | Pointer to handle instance of whd interface |
- Returns
- WHD_SUCCESS if power save mode was successfully disabled Error code if power save mode was not successfully disabled
