Hello! This might be of interest for developers working on ath5k and ath9k drivers. It may be useful to have working MadWifi code for reference to see how MadWifi accesses hardware registers, what packets it would send, how it would communicate with other devices, how fast the connections would be.
I fully realize that the MadWifi code is ugly and I don't want anyone to use it for any new serious project (I know that existing embedded systems still use MadWifi). Still, it's very unhelpful for developers that the MadWifi site is down and the MadWifi code doesn't compile for the latest kernels. So I forked MadWifi on GitHub: https://github.com/proski/madwifi Here's the summary of the changes I've made so far: Compilation fixed for Linux 3.10-3.12 and the current linux-next. ath_info removed, it's should probably be maintained separately. Removed integration with the official Subversion repository (it's down). Removed support for Linux 2.6.12 and older, I have no time to compile test it, let alone test the actual functionality. Fixed compile errors in rare cases (e.g. SKB debugging and no VLAN). Fixed some warnings, more fixes coming. The purpose of the changes is not to make MadWifi work better. The purpose is to make it compile cleanly and serve as a working reference for ath5k and ath9k development. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
