Hi, I found that ethtool interface get corrupted somehow. With recent linux-wireless kernel, I see that ethtool -i do not report firmware-version, that used to be present some time ago. I tested with ath9k. With wired interfaces it still works: $ ethtool -i wlan0 driver: ath9k version: firmware-version: bus-info: 0000:04:00.0 supports-statistics: no supports-test: no supports-eeprom-access: no supports-register-dump: no supports-priv-flags: no $ ethtool -i eth0 driver: e1000e version: 2.1.4-k firmware-version: 0.13-3 bus-info: 0000:00:19.0 supports-statistics: yes supports-test: yes supports-eeprom-access: yes supports-register-dump: yes supports-priv-flags: no It looks strange - even if driver do not fill wdev->fw_version, ethtool handler substitute string "N/A": if (wdev->wiphy->fw_version[0]) strncpy(info->fw_version, wdev->wiphy->fw_version, sizeof(info->fw_version)); else strncpy(info->fw_version, "N/A", sizeof(info->fw_version)); -- 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
