    SubjectRe: [ath5k-devel] [PATCH 1/1] Ath5k: add AP mode

    Quick Observation ...

    it appears IEEE80211 types have been replaced with NL80211 types in
    kernel ... so would the following not be more correct and is opmode not
    defined as

    struct ath5k_softc {
    ....
    enum nl80211_iftype opmode;
    .....

    @@ -2130,14 +2129,15 @@ ath5k_beacon_config(struct ath5k_softc *sc)

    sc->imask |= AR5K_INT_SWBA;

    - if (ath5k_hw_hasveol(ah)) {
    - spin_lock(&sc->block);
    - ath5k_beacon_send(sc);
    - spin_unlock(&sc->block);
    - }
    + if (sc->opmode == NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC) {
