I created this <hysteria.sk/~neologism/wifi.patch> which could solve problem of
wifi driver not being able to switch among speeds.
I added two files into
sys/net80211/
and change sys/conf/files to
net80211/ieee80211_proto.c optional wlan
+ net80211/ieee80211_rssadapt.h optional wlan
+ net80211/ieee80211_rssadapt.c optional wlan
netatalk/aarp.c optional netatalk
(semi-diff, ie. I added that two files)
and it gives me this message:
"Makefile", line 3104: warning: duplicate script for target
"ieee80211_rssadapt.
ln" ignored
"Makefile", line 3107: warning: duplicate script for target
"ieee80211_rssadapt.
o" ignored
(but it proceeds further) and finally it fails with:
link_elf: symbol ieee80211_rssadapt_raise_rate undefined
simply said - the ieee80211_rssadapt.c didnt get compiled at all (so linker
cannot find the symbol)
By applying the patch and defining wi device you can get the same behaviour
thnx for help
