Hello! I see that include/linux/802_11.h in Linux 2.6.5-rc2-bk9 is included by only one file, namely drivers/net/wireless/atmel_cs.c. In fact, atmel_cs.c doesn't need it (tested by compiling it). The 802_11.h header contains some definitions already present in drivers/net/wireless/ieee802_11.h, which is used by some drivers. For instance, frame subtypes are listed in both. 802_11.h also has useful definitions that should be elsewhere, such as ieee_802_3_header and ieee_802_11_802_2_header. I was tempted to use some definitions from 802_11.h, but then realized that it may be deprecated if nobody is using it. Does anybody know who wrote 802_11.h, whether it's deprecated, and if not, why it's not used? -- Regards, Pavel Roskin
Pavel, Why don't you ask Simon directly ? Have fun... Jean
