This gets the job done, but that's it. The API defined allows for a hugely loose implementation on each driver. Users could end up using for ath5k: iw dev wlan0 set_tx_antenna 1 # for AR5K_ANTMODE_FIXED_A iw dev wlan0 set_tx_antenna 2 # for AR5K_ANTMODE_FIXED_B iw dev wlan0 set_tx_antenna 3 # for AR5K_ANTMODE_DEFAULT And yet for another driver it could be something completely different in usersepace. I think it would be better for us to define a static API for all legacy cards and another for 802.11n cards, or unify them but to be very specific about the API for antenna settings/chainmask settings.
