I don't see anything in those 4 points that would argue against the current
conventions in mac80211. In fact, it sounds like you are arguing for it since
jssi, which you said is linear, goes to qual (after my patch is applied)
which wants a linear number.
The code is internally consistent. Now it is only the usage of the (r)ssi name to describe the
logarithmic numbers that is confusing. Would you entertain a patch that changed (r)ssi to level in
the structs and drivers to reduce the confusion? I have such a patch that works with
bcm43xx-mac80211. In addition, all other drivers compile.
