cfg80211 doesn't care about that, it only requires you to register one logical wiphy device. Whether it has more than one netdev or not isn't significant. For d80211, however, trying to get rid of the wmasterX interface requires tighter integration in order to run a qdisc on a non-netdev wireless physical device. Which gets us back to how this thread started :) johannes - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
