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:

  oeqa/oetest.py: add better package search for hasPackage() (2015-08-26 08:26:37 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:

  git://github.com/kergoth/openembedded-core add-iw

Christopher Larson (5):
  iw: add recipe from meta-networking
  iw: inherit pkgconfig
  iw: obey our target path variables
  iw: support and enable separate build dir
  packagegroup-base: pull in iw as well as wireless-tools

We want the dep on pkgconfig-native, not pkgconfig, and the convention is to
inherit pkgconfig when running pkg-config at build time.

From: Christopher Larson <chris_larson@mentor.com>

As was discussed in the commit which adds iw:

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."

wireless-tools is kept as well for now for compatibility reasons, until we
have verified that all the network configuration mechanisms are using iw.

This adds VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_wireless-tools as a distro convenience.
