Hi all,
I'm trying to develop an application so that I can manage virtual
interfaces from user space, without using debugfs.
Does anyone has any suggestion on how should I do this? Should I use
nl80211 and create the necessary callbacks in the drivers?
Thanks,
Rodolphe Marques

debugfs cannot be relied upon for userspace unless you are willing
to deal with future file name changes or APIs. If its a debugging
utility then its a great match.
In the future we may see some of this move toward cfg80211 although
exactly what is unclear at this point.
