It may save > double book keeping of station table to low-level driver? Does the driver actually need to do bookkeeping? I don't see why that would be necessary if the ucode does it. If the driver will actually need to do bookkeeping then I'm all for adding an iterator for the STAs in the style of the virtual interface iterator I just added. But I wouldn't want to add it if the driver doesn't need to do any bookkeeping (other than maybe the number of stations) anyway. johannes --=-05Ip2M8NW+oGrbhxyVsY Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Johannes Berg (powerbook) iQIVAwUARziA46Vg1VMiehFYAQJ4+RAAvx8ZH70WujO2BrwvhU3LSnShabBXzZaT cdKxgDJpORjrVDEVQhoH4J+XvD1lqk+FZ8k5ICb5y5l7RR3wjKR4ettujg88ONT7 Uo3DfDlwQolS95bcliDteWe0QjRppPA1x9zxXbFXtQ8KubjNjYEzVluMiPx+z5Z4 ZYlzwpHb20JCGgUhjMnPXcS+L9SIcY/mMPk72ro8c18WLJ2+31E8eYUK6eKzITD7 Q1nBiL9+h3EjtUbRXROgyQ533B0DM9lMpAQa5LqhXxAwF1nZH437u24VxUWdlsOn kQ3+Lk4OmpK4BsfMIrYtFM5tSIOWOYe3XtPCGPQx/qmW5xRCIc5fdjpjvyvGUA6c 72yYc8AX9Yox7PFgNWEaURbuMWdnpJGsiQGQm+eZOCfWYhADpEJRLGalvov9W0Br UcMnDXlfh8qiVRVH7vRe9OtVo8xQgFlPQLPo7ryAR+kqbPPryf+Qc5ugciCWZu6b 1U+Zvx7ZjJ53fP1uiIoxGuiLIMnXoiVVLfk+3eq3cOLqFJXvylgUQH896cALYOZ9 Z/ArdcwbrGx4lAnm+En27PCvAY303XQw5uTkd55KFK17yXDCx0ZKGNN0Ebs7ourI 2RwFTiZ51bVokdpJZY3uMeFAqa5drtyRD9N74hMgRoEojOcLiR1Ubpi9hsfdRxwH qkTBLbn9bM4= =ndxL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-05Ip2M8NW+oGrbhxyVsY--
