iwpriv工具通过ioctl动态获取相应无线网卡驱动的private_args所有扩展参数

iwpriv是处理下面的wlan_private_args的所有扩展命令,iwpriv的实现上,是这样的,
=>main
=>set_private
=>iw_get_priv_info获取wireless网卡所能处理的所有wlan_private_args类型.

dev_ioctl
=>wext_handle_ioctl
=>wireless_process_ioctl
    if (cmd == SIOCGIWPRIV && dev->wireless_handlers)
        return ioctl_standard_call(dev, ifr, cmd,
                     &iw_handler_get_private);
static int ioctl_standard_call(struct net_device *    dev,
             struct ifreq *        ifr,
             unsigned int        cmd,
             iw_handler        handler)
{
    ...
        /* Call the handler */
        ret = handler(dev, &info, &(iwr->u), extra);
            if (user_length < iwr->u.data.length) {
                kfree(extra);
                return -E2BIG;
//通知iwpriv,本wifi网卡对应的private命令还没有完,还有,这样iwpriv将会继续
//maxpriv默认为16,即将以16个为一组,一组一组的从wifi网卡驱动读取该网卡所能支持的所有private_args参数
//newpriv = realloc(priv, maxpriv * sizeof(priv[0]));继续申请,继续拷贝,知道将wifi网卡自定义的wlan_private_args参数全部
//传出到iwpriv为止.
            }
    ...
}
    /* New driver API : try to find the handler */
    handler = get_handler(dev, cmd);//获取

if (handler) {
        /* Standard and private are not the same */
        if (cmd < SIOCIWFIRSTPRIV)
            return ioctl_standard_call(dev, ifr, cmd, handler);
        else

//如果有对应的handler,那么处理iwpriv的命令,可以我们的iwpriv都是由dev->do_ioctl完成的.
            return ioctl_private_call(dev, ifr, cmd, handler);
    }
    /* Old driver API : call driver ioctl handler */
    if (dev->do_ioctl)
//如果dev->wireless_handlers->standard和dev->wireless_handlers->private[index都不对该cmd作处理,那么由
//dev->do_ioctl = wlan_do_ioctl;我们驱动的最后处理函数wlan_do_ioctl处理.
        return dev->do_ioctl(dev, ifr, cmd);

static iw_handler get_handler(struct net_device *dev, unsigned int cmd)
{
    /* Don't "optimise" the following variable, it will crash */
    unsigned int    index;        /* *MUST* be unsigned */

/* Check if we have some wireless handlers defined */
    if (dev->wireless_handlers == NULL)
        return NULL;

/* Try as a standard command */
    index = cmd - SIOCIWFIRST;
    if (index < dev->wireless_handlers->num_standard)
        return dev->wireless_handlers->standard[index];

/* Try as a private command */
    index = cmd - SIOCIWFIRSTPRIV;//

if (index < dev->wireless_handlers->num_private)
        return dev->wireless_handlers->private[index];//该private命令的handler.
    /* Not found */
    return NULL;
}


下面wlan_private_args为本wifi网卡驱动的所能支持的所有命令,也就是iwpriv命令所能支持的所有命令

struct iw_handler_def wlan_handler_def = {
  num_standard:sizeof(wlan_handler) / sizeof(iw_handler),
  num_private:sizeof(wlan_private_handler) / sizeof(iw_handler),
  num_private_args:sizeof(wlan_private_args) / sizeof(struct iw_priv_args),
  standard:(iw_handler *) wlan_handler,
  private:(iw_handler *) wlan_private_handler,
  private_args:(struct iw_priv_args *) wlan_private_args,
#if WIRELESS_EXT > 20
  get_wireless_stats:wlan_get_wireless_stats,
#endif
};

以下为示意代码,我们的wifi网卡驱动支持如下iwpriv命令.
