From 32bfd35d4b63bd63de4bb0d791ef049c3c868726 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2007 01:31:26 +0100 Subject: mac80211: dont use interface indices in drivers This patch gets rid of the if_id stuff where possible in favour of a new per-virtual-interface structure "struct ieee80211_vif". This structure is located at the end of the per-interface structure and contains a variable length driver-use data area. This has two advantages: * removes the need to look up interfaces by if_id, this is better for working with network namespaces and performance * allows drivers to store and retrieve per-interface data without having to allocate own lists/hash tables Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
