Hi, Thanks for the code! I've started to work on this as well, and will take a look at your code soon. I'm currently a bit sick though so it might be a couple of days. > Work still needs to be done: > * powersave per-vif > * queue locking per-vif > * offchannel rework (hw_config, work_work) > * and a bit more Have you my thoughts at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/86070 about the queue issue? > Questions: > > * monitor interfaces: > Currently ieee80211_set_channel gets netdev==NULL when iface is > a monitor. Is there a particular reason behind it? This is my biggest question too. I need to sit down and think through the different monitor mode use cases to be able to answer it. > * ieee80211_hw_config: > Should we extend it to take ieee80211_sub_if_data or should we > use ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify? If so, is ieee80211_hw_config > eventually to be removed? That's the other question I've asked myself too :-) I think extending it doesn't make a lot of sense. Most of the parameters can be moved or removed, if they aren't already dead (like IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_LISTEN_INTERVAL.) POWER might be an interesting question -- not sure if all devices are going to support per-vif TX power and if we should require that. Ditto for SMPS. IDLE is already per interface in addition, and goes together with MONITOR and how we handle monitor mode in the future (see above.) That leaves just RETRY_LIMITS which, to be honest, I have no idea about right now. johannes -- 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
