Hi arnd,

Thanks for the all the patches.
About the patch ( use proper naming for global symbols ),
We are planning to use this driver not only for wilc1000 but also for
other atmel wireless driver. I'd appreciate if you could use wl instead of wilc1000.

And the global variable g_linux_wlan will be placed in netdevice private data
and finally it will be removed. I already posted some of those patches.
I couldn't find the patches anywhere, but I've updated my series now
to rename the symbols to wilc_* and to remove most but not all references to
g_linux_wlan (or wilc_dev after my rename). Do you want me to post those
so you can integrate them, or should I have a look at what you sent first
(please send me a copy then).

Hi arnd,

I have tested with all the patches you have posted but it does not works. firmware start timed out
in the function wilc1000_start_firmware.
I also have tested with all the patched without last one, [RFC] one, but it shows
Segmentation fault when insmod driver.
For now, I can't rebase the patches. I'd appreciate if you could help us.

The title of my first patch is,
[PATCH 01/13] staging: wilc1000: add wilc to netdev private data structure
and also refer to [PATCH 00/12] WILC1000 V2 for the g_linux_wlan
( The patches posted by tony.cho@xxxxxxxxx )

By the way, deleting feature COMPLEMENT_BOOT patch already posted but not yet accepted.

Thank you.
Glen.

Arnd
