I want to modify compat wireless driver.
this is what documentation I am following
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/patches .
More precisely this :
# make package/mac80211/{clean,prepare} V=99 QUILT=1
# cd build_dir/linux-ar71xx_generic/compat-wireless-2011-08-10/
# quilt push -a
# quilt new my_changes.patch
# quilt edit drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/files
# quilt refresh
# cd ../../../ && make package/mac80211/update
After above I copy the image on the router.
The changes are reflected in the code in
build_dir/linux-ar71xx/compat../drivers/net/...ath9k/init.c
I suggest you read up on how to use quilt for managing patches on packages,

I think that should be it, but I don't get printk() outputs.
