Description

Hi,
I found that RTS frame was sent even if a packet size was below rts threshold.
Adjusting rts threshold and he_rts_threshold didn't disable RTS transmission.
Let me know if there is a way to disable RTS transmission.

Thank you.

Research direction

No source file or test is identified in the report. Reproduce the MT7915 behavior with packet sizes below the RTS threshold and with both rts and he_rts_threshold adjusted, then trace the driver or mac80211 RTS handling; done means RTS transmission is disabled as configured or the supported limitation is documented.
