[Qemu-devel] Re: Re: Atheros Wireless Device Emulation

[Clemens Kolbitsch]

Hello!
Since I cannot guarantee that the code will be on my server forever, I'll post 
the CVS-patch here once more. Furthermore, I'll split it into smaller 
sections and put it inline, so the chance of getting it reviewed are a little 
bigger ;-)

Also, here are some comments I posted mistakenly into a message that was not 
attached to the wlan-device thread:

----------------------
Some more infos on the wlan emulation:
 - if you cannot connect to the router (happens to me sometimes with windows 
guests), simply cancel connecting and retry
 - i experienced problems when getting a dynamic ip from qemu (dhcp) when 
using multiple NICs. Simply disable all other NICs and it always worked for 
me or use static IPs.
 - Inbound connections still buggy
 - Still does not work with current CVS of Madwifi drivers. Use MadWifi 0.9.3 
(and don't forget to use the _linux_ model type as explained in previous 
posts)
 - I just tried the patch and got a "qemu: fatal: triple fault" ... i 
restarted qemu and everything worked fine. either there is still a major bug 
in my code, or the snapshots inside my image were a little messed up.

Have fun with the code ;-)

Briefly documented patches will come in the next posts
