[RPRWG] Transmission of fairness frames

[Fredrik Davik <bjornfd@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am testing D2.5 in my simulator, and are getting into problems when
transmitting fairness frames.

The function TransmitFrame() on page 261 which transmits fairness
frames is unspecified.

I assume transmission of fairness frames goes via the stage queue
(from Q_TX_SS to Q_TX_STAGE). The stage queue selection state machine
does not have any rows handling frames of type FT_FAIRNESS, thus
fairness frames can't get from the stage queue and onto the ringlet,

I looked through the comment database and didn't find any comments on
this issue...

Im I missing something here or is there a flaw in D2.5?

Best Regards, 
Fredrik
