Subject: Can fb4e156886ce6e8309e912d8b370d192330d19d3 be reverted ?
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2014 13:33:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141113123313.GA1926@redhat.com> (raw)
I've updated wireless code on RHEL and get complain that now
cfg80211 and rfkill modules are loaded on machines that do not have
wireless hardware. Modules are auto-loaded because NetworkManager send
nl80211 messages to check if there are wireless devices in the system.
Hence my question, can we revert commit fb4e156886ce
"nl80211: Add generic netlink module alias for cfg80211/nl80211" ?
Auto loading nl80211 does not seems to be necessary, if there are
wireless devices nl80211 will be loaded anyway.
Stanislaw
