nl80211rs

This is a hand conversion of the 802.11 netlink interface public header file into a rust module. The style has been changed to conventional CamelCase and the prefix to the enum and consts values is removed; reasoning being that the prefix is redundant given crate and module namespaces.

crate::enum::CamelCaseUid

eg.

nl80211_commands::NL80211_CMD_START_AP

Becomes

nl80211rs::Commands::StartAp

The constants are held in their own module nl80211rs::constants. Constants are almost identical to the prepocessor directives, except they are not prefixed with NL80211_.

Progress

  • Included all enums and structures in the header. They are near 1:1 with a few exceptions; one being aliased commands in nl80211::Commands, which have prefix Alias, where their real values can be resolved in nl80211::alias::Commands. It is a bit of a short term hack.

  • Included a range of constants, but not all define directives have been included.

  • Comments are sparse-to-non-existant.
