Re: IWL3945 problems in 2.6.35-rc1

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The good news at first:
Your patch applies against 2.6.35-rc1 vanilla (tested with linux-2.6 GIT).

BUT....
This patch should be renamed to "iwl3945-fix-internal-scan-2.6.35-rc1.patch".

It differs from the one in iwiwifi-2.6 (see below).
Thus, I said to myself let's dig deeper into it.

First, here is my GIT workflow (I use linux-2.6 rcX, later pull in
wireless-2.6 and finally iwlwifi-2.6 master GIT)

[CODE]
$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

$ git reset --hard v2.6.35-rc1

$ git pull git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git
master:wireless-2.6

$ git pull http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-2.6.git
master:iwlwifi-2.6
[/CODE]

If I do so, I get NON-iwlwifi related stuff pulled in and that should
not be the case?
I am not a git tool expert, there might be some magic tricks I do not know.
Thanks for any hints on git tool :-).

It would be very helpfull (if you want people to follow iwlwifi
development) to have something similiar like in linux-wireless GIT
trees - just a proposal:

iwlwifi-2.6 -> wireless-2.6 -> net-2.6 -> linux-2.6
iwlwifi-next-2.6 -> wireless-next-2.6 -> net-next-2.6 -> linux-next
iwlwifi-testing -> wireless-testing

As I said I am no git expert, so I don't know if you want to setup 3
diverse GIT repsoitories (as John did for wireless-* trees) or have 3
different GIT branches within existing iwlwifi-2.6 GIT repository as
in drm-2.6 [1].
Me thinks your (re)base in development should be the counterpart in
wireless GIT tree (see above).

Just my two coins.

Kind Regards,
