Joel,
   
  Thanks for information. I have two more questions.
   
  1. May I simply add "bool 'wpa_supplicant'  
     CONFIG_USER_WPA_SUPPLICANT" in config.in?
     Is it enough?
   
  2. I have some custom modules working with atheros drivers which locate
      in drivers/net/wireless. If I want to put my own modules in the 
      driver/net/wirelss subdirectory, what should I modifiy? 
   
  Thanks for great help!

  Henry,

Just download wpa supplicant for yourself and follow the instructions for 
adding a new package that you can get from the uClinux mailing list. 
Basically it involves:

Putting package in user directory
Modifying the user/Makefile to add package
Modifying the config/config.in to add variable flag for compiling
Modifying the config/config.help to add help test
Modifying the wpa_supplicant Makefile to include a romfs target.

I think you can get away with only adding the following to the 
wpa_supplicant/Makefile

romfs:
mkdir -p $(ROMFSINST)/usr/local/sbin/
$(ROMFSINST) -e CONFIG_USER_WPA_SUPPLICANT 
/usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant
$(ROMFSINST) -e CONFIG_USER_WPA_SUPPLICANT 
/usr/sbin/wpa_passphrase

Hope that helps.
