As you see, the supported modes include the IBSS mod.But when I use the iw tool to create a IBSS network:
root@cly-virtual-machine:/home/cly# ifconfig wlan0 down
root@cly-virtual-machine:/home/cly# iw dev wlan0 set type ibss
root@cly-virtual-machine:/home/cly# ifconfig wlan0 up
root@cly-virtual-machine:/home/cly# iw dev wlan0 ibss join myadhoc 2437
root@cly-virtual-machine:/home/cly# ip addr add 192.168.2.1/24 dev wlan0`
It turns out that I created a ibss network and there is one device in it.
root@cly-virtual-machine:/home/cly# iw dev wlan0 link

But when I add another device into this network.It turns out that the device shows the same information but they cannot ping through each other.I doubt whether they didn't get into the same ibss network.
Any idea on how to solve this ?
Hi, I've successfully compiled the driver and installed into my linux-4.10.2 . Following are the info of
iw list
