Hi,

I have changes for 'iw' for setting netns by name in the same way as it
works in 'ip link set dev XXX netns <NAME>', so it uses /var/run/netns
path by default or absolute path if it sees "/" in the netns name.

So may be I will send the patch as RFC just to see a feedback ?

Thanks,

Hi Johannes,

Does it mean that patch will be rejected in case if no one answer on
this ?:)

Does this seem OK? Vadim is adding support for using the ns-by-fd in
nl80211, which can be a module as part of cfg80211.
