I don't really see value in that, it would only make the implementation less efficient, because either you follow another pointer (sta->stats) or you have to look in the other hash table. That's why I prefer embedding it, we have to do the station hash table lookup anyway. > For the API I think we should create a new nl80211 command. > If we simply add a > flag to the normal "station dump" command, we would not have all the attributes > to print (keep in mind station dump prints attributes that are in sta_info and > that are not in sta_stats). station dump can just print all attributes that exist, some stations would have more/different attributes than other stations. But I don't really think it makes a big difference either way, reusing it would be fine if the default is to not include the stats-only entries. johannes -- 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
