I have produced a patch that begins to unify NetBSD's and OpenBSD's wi(4) drivers. I've pulled in select elements from FreeBSD's driver, too. I think the chief importance of these patches is that they bring HostAP mode to NetBSD, but the ifmedia ioctls and other aspects are improved, too. The patch is at <http://che.ojctech.com/~dyoung/wip/wip.tgz>. Consider the patch experimental. It has worked for me on NetBSD/i386, but I have not "stressed" the driver. I have not yet tried the patch in OpenBSD. I have not brought in the recent airtools patches to OpenBSD, yet, sorry. That looks to me like a substantial set of patches. It could be a while before I get around to it. If they are acceptable, I would like for these patches to get into the netbsd-current tree, but I have no idea what the "protocol" for acceptance is---do I submit a bug report containing the patch?
