Hi
Actually, we have 32 private ioctls (16 read and 16 write). Here is a piece of wireless.h :

#define SIOCIWFIRSTPRIV	0x8BE0
#define SIOCIWLASTPRIV	0x8BFF

The comments around those #define are a bit confusing because the first says 16 ioctl. Whereas the second : "We now have 32 commands, so a bit more space ;-)."

BTW, I'm currently rewriting some ioctl stuff and the oid thing, and it will be a bit more coherent...

	...And justice for all
