To support network namespace the driver must assure all created
network interfaces are in the same namespace as the wiphy instance.

Hi Mark,
Please check this patch. I can not say I am an expert when it comes
to using namespaces. So let me know if it works and I can change
Reported-by into Tested-by.
Regards,
Arend

Seems to pass the tests I threw at it. Seems happy with namespaces.

Interesting. That's clearly a cfg80211 bug, does this help?

FWIW, looks fine to me.

You (almost?) don't need the wiphy variable :)

I had thought this was intended behavior as well but I see that a patch is
already prepped and tested to make this not happen. At any rate it wasn't
appearing to affect my usecase.

OK, I can see how preserving this makes sense for debugging. Understood and
thanks for getting this namespace support in.

Hi Johannes,
Seems we get a NETDEV_REGISTER notification when changing to other
namespace thus increasing the struct wireless_dev::identifier.
# insmod brcmfmac

Given my debug session just a minute ago I would say yes ;-) as this is
where I put wiphy_err() statement. Will give it a quick spin.

I can't actually see how it'd affect any usecase, since you really need
to check inside the new netns what's going on etc. anyway, and you
don't really want to pass such identifiers across the boundaries. But
preserving it makes more sense, if only for debugging and making sure
we won't run out of numbers :)

Thanks. Any feedback is worth something ;-)

Yeah. I could wrap that into wiphy_net() call as it is the only place I
need it. Will do that if I stay clear from column #80.

I tested it myself and noticed something unexpected. Upon changing from
&init_net to brcm-wifi the wdev id has changed from 0x1 to 0x2 (see
below) and upon going from brcm-wifi to &init_net both interface change
their wdev id.
