Hi Tim, for mac80211, we use the backports project and that follows a different version than what is used for linux. If your intention is to propose this in OpenWrt, ideally all the define flag should be dropped and produce a more up-to-date driver with maybe 6.12 and 6.6 max. But it really doesn't make sense to have IFDEF to support 2.x or 3.x... Also consider that mac80211 backports define have different config flag to differentiate from kernel config (CPTCFG prefix) _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
