Then the command need check the range when it's U8: 0x00 - 0xff and when it's U16: 0x0000 - 0xffff The rest of ranges checks will do the kernel then. This will remove the overflow in userspace e.g. iwpan dev wpan0 set ackreq_default 256 will set the ackreq_default to 0. This check can't be done at kernelspace side. The kernel need to check then if it's "0" or "1" only. We need to introduce this behabiour for all U8 and U16 settings then. - Alex -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wpan" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
