Several drivers, including mac80211 use union iwreq_data, which is fragile. Fortunately, most drivers don't use that argument or use the "data" field, which is correct. The only incorrect use of union iwreq_data is in rndis_wlan. It would ignore ESSID on x86_64. I think the use of union iwreq_data is dangerous and should be avoided. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin -- 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
