Sorry about the late response but could you elaborate to me in more
detail on this?
Where header file would be the good place if it's exporting it as nl80211_...?
Here are some places that I've considered but don't seem like a good candidate.
- include/net/cfg80211.h: proposed by current patch with name
cfg80211_send_chandef.
- include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h: only contains enums. doesn't seem like
a good place.
net/wireless/nl80211.h seems like your suggestion, but I can't find
how to include this from mac80211_hwsim.c.
I may need to EXPORT_SYMBOL(nl80211_send_chandef) and also declare it
to the cfg80211.h,
but I'm not sure because I can't find any existing example.
