Luckily private commands are now banned, it was such a mess. Now you add a new generic command to nl80211/cfg80211 so that all drivers can use it. The benefit is that the driver can be changed without any modifications to user space. Only exceptions are NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE for low level factory/RF tests and debugfs for developer debugging purposes. -- Kalle Valo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
