[PATCH 1/2] cfg80211: Allow NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX to be added to vendor events

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ahmad Kholaif <akholaif@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This adds a new alternative static inline wrapper to
cfg80211_vendor_event_alloc() with an additional argument
struct wireless_dev *wdev.

__cfg80211_alloc_event_skb() is modified to take in *wdev argument
(either NULL which would be the existing cfg80211_vendor_event_alloc()
case or not-NULL which would the new wrapper case; if wdev != NULL, the
NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is added to the vendor event.

These changes make it easier for drivers to add ifindex indication in
vendor events cleanly.
