From: Dave Hansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Create sysfs "device" files for hostap
I was writing some scripts to automatically build kismet source lines, and I noticed that hostap devices don't have device files, unlike my prism54 and ipw2200 cards: $ ls -l /sys/class/net/eth0/device /sys/class/net/eth0/device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:02:01.0 $ ls -l /sys/class/net/wifi0 ls: /sys/class/net/wifi0/device: No such file or directory $ ls -l /sys/class/net/wlan0 ls: /sys/class/net/wlan0/device: No such file or directory The following (quite small) patch makes sure that both the wlan and wifi net devices have that pointer to the bus device. This way, I can do things like for i in /sys/class/net/*; do if ! [ -e $i/device/drive ]; then continue; fi; driver=$(basename $(readlink $i/device/driver)) case $driver in hostap*) echo -- hostap,$i,$i-$driver break; ipw2?00) echo -- $driver,$i,$i-$driver break; prism54) echo prism54g,$i esac done Which should generate a working set of source lines for kismet no matter what order I plug the cards in. It might also be handy to have a link between the two net devices, but that's a patch for another day. That patch is against 2.6.13-rc1-mm1. -- Dave Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Index: netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap.c =================================================================== --- netdev-2.6.orig/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap.c +++ netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap.c @@ -137,6 +137,7 @@ struct net_device * hostap_add_interface if (strchr(dev->name, '%')) ret = dev_alloc_name(dev, dev->name); + SET_NETDEV_DEV(dev, mdev->class_dev.dev); if (ret >= 0) ret = register_netdevice(dev); Index: netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_cs.c =================================================================== --- netdev-2.6.orig/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_cs.c +++ netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_cs.c @@ -725,7 +725,8 @@ static int prism2_config(dev_link_t *lin } /* Need to allocate net_device before requesting IRQ handler */ - dev = prism2_init_local_data(&prism2_pccard_funcs, 0); + dev = prism2_init_local_data(&prism2_pccard_funcs, 0, + &handle_to_dev(link->handle)); if (dev == NULL) goto failed; link->priv = dev; Index: netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_hw.c =================================================================== --- netdev-2.6.orig/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_hw.c +++ netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_hw.c @@ -3268,7 +3268,8 @@ static void prism2_clear_set_tim_queue(l static struct net_device * -prism2_init_local_data(struct prism2_helper_functions *funcs, int card_idx) +prism2_init_local_data(struct prism2_helper_functions *funcs, int card_idx, + struct device *sdev) { struct net_device *dev; struct hostap_interface *iface; @@ -3439,6 +3440,7 @@ while (0) rtnl_lock(); ret = dev_alloc_name(dev, "wifi%d"); + SET_NETDEV_DEV(dev, sdev); if (ret >= 0) ret = register_netdevice(dev); rtnl_unlock(); Index: netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_pci.c =================================================================== --- netdev-2.6.orig/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_pci.c +++ netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_pci.c @@ -308,7 +308,8 @@ static int prism2_pci_probe(struct pci_d pci_set_master(pdev); #endif /* PRISM2_BUS_MASTER */ - dev = prism2_init_local_data(&prism2_pci_funcs, cards_found); + dev = prism2_init_local_data(&prism2_pci_funcs, cards_found, + &pdev->dev); if (dev == NULL) goto fail; iface = netdev_priv(dev); Index: netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_plx.c =================================================================== --- netdev-2.6.orig/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_plx.c +++ netdev-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_plx.c @@ -522,7 +522,8 @@ static int prism2_plx_probe(struct pci_d * not present; but are there really such cards in use(?) */ } - dev = prism2_init_local_data(&prism2_plx_funcs, cards_found); + dev = prism2_init_local_data(&prism2_plx_funcs, cards_found, + &pdev->dev); if (dev == NULL) goto fail; iface = netdev_priv(dev); -- -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
