Enforce more consistent naming scheme #52

Closed jserv closed 8 months ago

jserv commented 9 months ago

Currently, various functions in our project start with the prefix "owl," an acronym for "Our WirelessLan." However, this naming convention is no longer relevant since the project has been renamed to vwifi, representing virtual WiFi. To maintain consistency and clarity in our codebase, it is necessary to update the naming scheme for all symbols used in this project. Therefore, I propose that we transition to using the prefix "vwifi" instead of "owl" for all relevant functions and symbols.

Similarly, the network interface names created by the vwifi kernel module can follow the format "vw0", "vw1", and so on.

Is this issue still available ? if so , I would like to help. Btw, change owl to vw or change owl to vwifi ? Which one is more preferred?

Progress on this issue was stalled due to @rickywu0421's commitment to military service. It is supposed that vwifi_ is enforced to be the prefix for functions or related identifiers. vw is used for the interface names, such as vw0 and vw1.
