This directory contains the bits needed to integrate the Madwifi source
|
|
|
|
|
distribution into a Linux kernel source tree. This is only recommended
|
|
|
|
|
on embedded systems with no kernel module support. For standard
|
|
|
|
|
installation, please refer to the files in the top level directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To integrate MadWifi into the Linux kernel, unpack the kernel sources if
|
|
|
|
|
needed, then run the install.sh script from this directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to patch the currently running system you can run install.sh
|
|
|
|
|
without arguments, otherwise specify the source tree location on the
|
|
|
|
|
command line:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./install.sh /usr/src/linux
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The driver sources will be copied into drivers/net/wireless/madwifi in
|
|
|
|
|
the kernel sources. Some kernel files will be patched to know about
|
|
|
|
|
this directory. Files called Makefile.kernel will be renamed to
|
|
|
|
|
Makefile.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now you can run "make menuconfig" or similar command and configure the
|
|
|
|
|
driver as you would normally do. If the kernel is already configured,
|
|
|
|
|
run "make oldconfig", and you'll be asked only about Atheros driver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It's possible to build Madwifi modules when the driver is integrated
|

into the Linux kernel, but most users should not need that.
