This doesn't build on my tree, due to HRTIMER_MODE_REL_SOFT not existing. Neither does HRTIMER_MODE_SOFT mentioned above, but that's just a commit log mistake. (It also didn't apply on my tree, but that was a trivial context change.) I don't understand why you initialize it with HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_SOFT either though: > + hrtimer_init(&data->beacon_timer, CLOCK_MONOTONIC, > + HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_SOFT); shouldn't that already be REL? johannes
