What ioctl is this exactly? Wireless drivers should be using nl80211,
not any ioctl interface.
Hi Kalle,
The terminology is a bit off. This is vendor specific command
interfacing directly with firmware and the content is opaque from driver
perspective. However, a number of these commands have their nl80211
equivalent. Especially regarding creation of AP interface I would simply
go with creation through nl80211.
