Cover letter [PATCHv2 0/5] Add 'iw' recipe and include in packagegroup-base
From: Christopher Larson <[email protected]>
iw uses cfg80211/nl80211, which is the way of the future. wireless-tools uses WEXT, which uses ioctl, which is in deep maintenance mode. See
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/Wireless-Extensions.
Also https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw indicates "The old tool iwconfing, which uses Wireless Extensions interface, is deprecated and it's strongly recommended to switch to iw and nl80211."
See also the mailing list thread '[OE-core] iw in place of wireless-tools'.
v2 changes: add Upstream-Status to patch, remove duplicate VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_wireless-tools definition.
The following changes since commit f07045fcae859c902434062d1725f1348f42d1dd:
