ad-hoc wireless mode and ticks (fwd)

I sent the question in freebsd-question list, but it seems a wrong list to
ask. Sorry to spam those guys' mailboxes again who subscribed both.

Thanks,
Ken

Subject: ad-hoc wireless mode and ticks


Hi, All:

  Feel a little confused with the ad-hoc mode set by "wicontrol -p 3", is
it Lucent ad-hoc mode instead of the standard IEEE ad-hoc mode (IBSS).

  After I use "-p 3" option, it cannot talk to Linux/Windows ad-hoc
wireless station. But if I set it to "-p 4", it can do the job. However, I
cannot find this option in wicontrol man page or anywhere. Could somebody
explain me what's going on here?

  Moreover, could somebody give me a hint what is the corresponding
function in FreeBSD like "rdtscl" function in Linux, which returns me the
cpu ticks elapsed?

Thanks a lot,
Ken
