};

3. MEMBERS ▲

rcu_head
    rcu head for freeing structure

session_timer
    check if we keep Tx-ing on the TID (by timeout value)

addba_resp_timer
    timer for peerAqs response to addba request

pending
    pending frames queue -- use staAqs spinlock to protect

state
    session state (see above)

last_tx
    jiffies of last tx activity

timeout
    session timeout value to be filled in ADDBA requests

dialog_token
    dialog token for aggregation session

stop_initiator
    initiator of a session stop

tx_stop
    TX DelBA frame when stopping

buf_size
    reorder buffer size at receiver

failed_bar_ssn
    ssn of the last failed BAR tx attempt

bar_pending
    BAR needs to be re-sent

4. DESCRIPTION ▲

This structureAqs lifetime is managed by RCU, assignments to the array holding it must hold the aggregation mutex.

The TX path can access it under RCU lock-free if, and only if, the state has the flag HT_AGG_STATE_OPERATIONAL set. Otherwise, the TX path must also acquire the spinlock and re-check the state, see comments in the tx code touching it.
