The ath9k virtual wiphy stuff is private to ath9k so for that you can add it here: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k/debug#wiphy For things that are specific to mac80211 that do not require the ath9k virtual wiphy something on the root of this page might be better: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation If ath9k virtual wiphy is quite useful today we would have to ensure any possible replacement would meet up to match its capabilities. I was unaware anyone was yet using it and testing it extensively. Have you been doing these tests on the virtual wiphy with a fairly recent snapshot? Luis
