Re: [Madwifi-users] adding parameters to iwpriv

[Wright, B. <Bre...@co...>]

Hi,

 

Just an idea, but if you are going to modify madwifi you could just add a sysctl for the variable you want access to so that you could then view/modify its value via the proc file system.

It's really easy to do - just have a look at ATH_SYSCTL_DECL() in if_ath.c and do same as one of the other basic ones...

Subject: [Madwifi-users] adding parameters to iwpriv

 

Hello,

 

Just one thought. If I want to access some hardcoded variable, from the ath_rate, and change or view it's value. It seems I just need to add it in the iwpriv, somewhere (like ieee80211_priv_args) and it should work. This code is n the ieee80211_wireless.c . But how does this work? I mean, what do I have to include in my original ath rate file and stuff?

 

Thanks,
