The function pointer scan in struct cfg80211_ops is not supposed to be assigned a function with a struct net_device pointer as an argument. Instead access the net_device struct in the following way: struct net_device *dev = request->wdev->netdev; sparse gives these warnings: drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c:726:17: warning: incorrect type in initializer (incompatible argument 2 (different base types)) expected int ( *scan )( ... ) got int ( extern [toplevel] *<noident> )( ... ) drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c:726:2: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default] drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c:726:2: warning: (near initialization for ‘prism2_usb_cfg_ops.scan’) [enabled by default] Signed-off-by: Emil Goode <emilgoode@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c b/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c index fabff4d..0970127 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c +++ b/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c @@ -327,9 +327,9 @@ int prism2_get_station(struct wiphy *wiphy, struct net_device *dev, return result; } -int prism2_scan(struct wiphy *wiphy, struct net_device *dev, - struct cfg80211_scan_request *request) +int prism2_scan(struct wiphy *wiphy, struct cfg80211_scan_request *request) { + struct net_device *dev = request->wdev->netdev; struct prism2_wiphy_private *priv = wiphy_priv(wiphy); wlandevice_t *wlandev = dev->ml_priv; struct p80211msg_dot11req_scan msg1; -- 1.7.10.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
