There's no reason to think that hwsim has any actual signal strength, but for testing it is very useful to have it report _some_ value to the stack so I can see if the value ends up being reported correctly Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Anyone have any objections? I'm not sure -- but it's still useful at least for me testing the upper layers. drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- wireless-testing.orig/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c 2009-07-10 16:26:35.000000000 +0200 +++ wireless-testing/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c 2009-07-10 16:27:51.000000000 +0200 @@ -406,7 +406,8 @@ static bool mac80211_hwsim_tx_frame(stru rx_status.freq = data->channel->center_freq; rx_status.band = data->channel->band; rx_status.rate_idx = info->control.rates[0].idx; - /* TODO: simulate signal strength (and optional packet drop) */ + /* TODO: simulate real signal strength (and optional packet loss) */ + rx_status.signal = -50; if (data->ps != PS_DISABLED) hdr->frame_control |= cpu_to_le16(IEEE80211_FCTL_PM); @@ -1026,7 +1027,8 @@ static int __init init_mac80211_hwsim(vo BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC) | BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT); - hw->flags = IEEE80211_HW_MFP_CAPABLE; + hw->flags = IEEE80211_HW_MFP_CAPABLE | + IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM; /* ask mac80211 to reserve space for magic */ hw->vif_data_size = sizeof(struct hwsim_vif_priv); -- 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
