Is there a plan to support nl80211.h in the future? I would like to write my own wifi scanner that would talk to kernel module (driver) and get scan information from it. I know it is possible with Linux. Is FreeBSD planning to do a similar thing? Thanks.
I cannot see a 1:1 nl80211.h implementation for FreeBSD any time soon. You can look at ifconfig sources for freebsd how to obtain scan information; it's simple ioctl. I'd start here: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/sbin/ifconfig/ifieee80211.c#n3744 There rest of the code is in the library you can use as well (and which ifconfig uses): https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/lib/lib80211 HTH, /bz -- Bjoern A.
