iw: NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT not defined

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

 



I am not sure that this is the right place to ask, but I am trying to
compile iw and get

interface.c: In function 'get_if_type':
interface.c:50: error: 'NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT' undeclared (first use
in this function)

I guess that this should be defined in /usr/include/linux/nl80211.h but
it is not present there nor in nl80211.h in kernel 2.6.25.1 which I have
installed.

I checked out iw from  http://git.sipsolutions.net/iw.git

I see NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT appearing in patches on this list so I
guess it is present in development trees.

I am just trying to get a usb-wifi device running with 2.6.25.x where
the driver has moved to mac80211. iwconfig appears to work no longer and
I found documentation to the effect that iw was required instead. Hence
my attempts to compile it.

Could someone with a moment to spare either point me to some
documentation or a solution? Perhaps iw is not intended for use with
2.6.25.x and the problems with iwconfig lie elsewhere?

A Lawrence
