Patch file is not exactly ideal for this kind of changes and I > hope git has a better way of storing this kind of rename. There's no other change. If you agree, Jeff might be able to do the mv drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap.c \ drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_main.c plus applying the patch below. > I would rather not rename the file, but if this is the only way of > getting the module built in pieces, I'm okay with the change (assuming > nothing else changed in hostap.c in this changeset). >... AFAIK you can't build a module hostap.o consisting of multiple objects with the source files of one of them named hostap.c (Sam Cc'ed for this). > Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA cu Adrian <-- snip --> I wanted to remove the #include "hostap_ioctl.c" from hostap.c and build hostap_ioctl.c separately, but this doesn't work since hostap.c has the same name as the module. After renaming hostap.c this will be possible.
