net-mgmt/aircrack-ng on FreeBSD 7+ / call for testing

[Jakub Lach]

Hi ports, 

Since some (2 years?) time, injection
is not supported in monitor mode, but 
should work in ahdemo.

aircrack-ng did not reflect this
change, and was basically not working
as intended.

I filled a pr, since working on this 
issue was delayed in upstream, and
there appeared to be simple workaround
floating around (by richardpl).

(ports/160564)

But results are somewhat inconsistent, 
e.g. I still get 

wi_write(): Permission denied 

with AR242x / AR542x, even after 
updating aircrack for patched
version.

Others reported success.

So this is basically call for testing
net-mgmt/aircrack-ng  and/or finding
better workaround.

best regards,

PS. Simple guide goes a long way:

1. Install net-mgmt/aircrack-ng. 

(e.g. portmaster net-mgmt/aircrack-ng)

2. Set card in ahdemo mode.

(e.g. ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 wlanmode ahdemo)

3. Perform injection test.

(e.g. aireplay-ng -9 wlan0)

4. Any "wi_write(): Permission denied"?

Still wi_write(): Input/output error ?

Does airodump-ng work now?

5. Report back/comment.
