The Linux wireless developers don't want to hear anything about the staging wireless drivers, for a wide range of miopic reasons. The following patch, based on a patch from Johannes Berg, tries to document this issue a bit better. Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

I'm hesitant to add a TODO file here, as the wireless developers would
|
|
really have people help them out on the "clean" rt2870 driver that can
|
|
be found at the http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/ site.
|
|
|
|
But, if you wish to clean up this driver instead, here's a short list of
|
|
things that need to be done to get it into a more mergable shape:
|
|
|
|
TODO:
|
|
- checkpatch.pl clean
|
|
- sparse clean
|
|
- port to in-kernel 80211 stack and common rt2x00 infrastructure
|
|
- remove reading from /etc/ config files
|
|
- review by the wireless developer community
|
|
|
|
Please send any patches or complaints about this driver to Greg
|
|
Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com> and don't bother the upstream wireless
|
|
kernel developers about it, they want nothing to do with it.
