I thought this is what NL80211_CMD_GET_SURVEY is supposed to do...

Thanks. I've used that for the ath9k variant.

Thanks Joerg! I tried : iw dev wlan0 survey dump and nothing show up.
What drivers are supposed to have this feature implemented?
Anyway, I really like to have it implemented for ath9k before removing
the deprecated noise value. If it's not currently implemented, I'll try
my best to send a patch in the next couple of days. I'll try then to
implement it for ath5k (already done?), ar9170, zd1211rw (if possible),
rt2800usb/pci.
BTW, on rt2800usb/pci, it seems the noise is reported on a per packet
basis by HW. Kinda strange isn't it? :-]

Benoit
