Hi, developers~
today i tested dfs function using madwifi-dfs source.
i used recent version of code in madwifi-dfs.
though there were some problems related with radar pattern, it works anyway.

but in my system, tx rate was always set to lowest one.
debugging message shows it caused by tx retry error.
every tx process returns tx retry error.

i think ath_slottime2timeout() is the reason of tx retry error.

in trunk source, 
static inline int 
ath_slottime2timeout(..)
{
   return (slottime * 2) + 18;
}

in dfs source,
static inline int 
ath_slottime2timeout(..)
{
   return slottime + 18;
}

i think trunk is right.
and i also think you developers already knows which one is right.
but because merging wasn't done yet, 
i hope this kind of report could be helpful for your work.
thank you always for your work.
