People should not waste time and energy working on this staging driver. A replacement(rtl8xxxu) using the kernel wireless stack already was merged in the 4.3 kernel.

TODO:
|
|
- find and remove code valid only for 5 HGz. Many of the obvious
|
|
ones have been removed, but things like channel > 14 still exist.
|
|
- find and remove any code for other chips that is left over
|
|
- convert any remaining unusual variable types
|
|
- find codes that can use %pM and %Nph formatting
|
|
- checkpatch.pl fixes - most of the remaining ones are lines too long. Many
|
|
of them will require refactoring
|
|
- merge Realtek's bugfixes and new features into the driver
|
|
- switch to use MAC80211
|
|
|
|
A mac80211 driver for this hardware already was integrated at
|
|
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtl8xxxu/
|
|
|
|
Please send any patches to Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>,
|
|
Jes Sorensen <Jes.Sorensen@redhat.com>, and Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>.
