compiles fine on x86 against gentoo-2.6.22-r5 on my MacBook thanks for the ebuild
... and it compiles fine here on ~x86 with the following setup: Portage 2.1.3.9 (default-linux/x86/2007.0, gcc-4.2.0, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.22-gentoo-r7 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.22-gentoo-r7 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz Timestamp of tree: Sun, 23 Sep 2007 21:20:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17-r1 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.5.1-r2 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.0_rc4-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18.50.0.1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.24 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.22-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" ...... Thanks for your work.
Just an update here: The ESVN_REPO_URI="http://svn.madwifi.org/trunk" for both ebuilds need to be changed to: ESVN_REPO_URI="http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/trunk/" Then you will need to delete your madwifi-ng & madwifi-ng-tools svn-src folders for it to compile as it will complain about the ESVN_REPO_URI's being different.

Network: AR5005G 802.11abg NIC (rev 01); amd64, sys-kernel/gentoo-sources 2.6.23 suggested patch worked fine for me. haven't needed an overlay, added the one line and continued with ebuild compile ... Thanks, Gerrit.
I've been getting this build failure lately with madwifi-ng and got it to compile by removing the madwifi-ng-r1886.patch. (At revision 2963.)

(At revision 2963.) > > Evidently something has changed. I believe the r1886.patch was included from the 0.9.3 ebuild. Since the patched file had existed in the repo, the patch wouldn't do anything. However, it looks like the code has been changed a little. I'm going to do some injection tests, but I'm guessing we can remove that patch and remove the injection USE tag.
The patch madwifi-ng-r1886.patch isn't working for me anymore for revision 3102. The module itself works good without but I haven't tried the injection.
I am wondering if anyone is using injection... IMHO we could remove the a) the patch b) the injection useflag? regards Bjoern
by the way, any discusion I can find about injection is "old" and points me to madwifi-ng-r2277.patch from aircrack (http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/madwifi-ng-r2277.patch) it would be easy to patch the new sources. allwe have to do is - try0 = ph->try0; + try0 = (ic->ic_opmode == IEEE80211_M_MONITOR) ? 1 : ph->try0; + /* + * The retry value has to be patched to 1 when injecting, + * otherwise the sequence number will be overwritten + */ That was what I found when comparing the code. Thought I am not a coder! So if anyone could proof the quote... regards Bjoern
ah sry heres's the source: http://madwifi.org/browser/madwifi/trunk/ath/if_ath.c line 2665 Line 2976 (struct ieee80211com *ic = &sc->sc_ic;) from the patch has mad it into madwifi-ng code
Created attachment 143469 [details, diff] madwifi-ng-ebuild.patch This patch backport some modifications of the madwifi-ng-0.9.4 ebuild and make repoman more happy. Please also note that this patch install the new minstrel rate engine module.

works well on x86 with a Atheros AR5418 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01). (Added ~x86 to to madwifi-ng-tools-9999.ebuild KEYWORDS) Thx for the ebuild.
In case someone need this: I updated and cleaned madwifi-ng-9999.ebuild and madwifi-ng-tools-9999.patch and added madwifi-ng-injection.patch. Compiles on ~x86 and ~amd64. diffs and file follow.

Madwifi has been masked as it has been replaced by ath5k/ath9k upstream for years now. Please migrate to a maintained driver.
