I just checked wl.mk (it's an open source file) and found following line:
WLFILES_SRC_HI +=3D src/wl/sys/wlc_stamon.c
not guarded by any ifeq.
It appears wlc_stamon.c is always being compiled in. Are you 100% sure
that wlc_stamon.c depends & uses radiotap? Are you sure it's
impossible to include stamon support without radiotap support?
I'm asking because we're going to check "sta_monitor" iovar to find
out if radiotap support is included. I'd like to be sure it's 100%
reliable.
