Hi, on July 11th you removed the definition for struct wi_req on -CURRENT from sys/dev/wi/if_wavelan_ieee.h with the following commit message revision 1.21 date: 2007/07/11 21:25:48; author: thompsa; state: Exp; lines: +2 -0 Now that wicontrol has been removed from the base system the corresponding ioctls can be removed. These have been #ifdef'd out and left as a reference in case any of the RIDs need to be turned into sysctls at a later date. Reviewed by: sam, avatar Approved by: re (kensmith) I don't know why, but recently at least the ports xwlans and wmwifi fail to build because of the missing definition, I guess. bsd-airtools has recently been flagged as broken, too. Presumably due to the same reason. How should these ports deal with this? Both are calling SIOCGWAVELAN with wi_type set to WI_RID_COMMS_QUALITY. Cheers, Ulrich Spoerlein -- It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak, and remove all doubt.
