[Xen-users] Any tip on making guest OS to have WiFi interface?

[Dongsoo Kim <dongsoo.kim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello folks,

I'm wondering why Xen doesn't provide WiFi interface for guest OS.

I can only find rtl8139, e1000 kind of wired ethernet interfaces.

Here is a thing.

My system has a WiFi interface on host and have no problem to make guest OS's leverage Host-side WiFi interface for their internet connection.

But in this case, guest OS's always have only ethernet interface.

The reason why I'm trying to figure out how to make guest OS's have a WiFi interface is to make guest OS's being able to scan WiFi access points

Just like the guest OS has an actual WiFi interface. Somehow different from network bridge through WiFi.

Any brilliant tip?

Cheers,

Nate
