Subject: rfkill: Output in JSON format if -J is provided.
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8832034dea26268359de8f405f34ff004ea598e0;p=thirdparty%2Futil-linux.git

rfkill: Output in JSON format if -J is provided.

This patch teaches rfkill output in JSON format if -J is provided.

E.g.,

```
$ ./rfkill -J list
{
   "rfkilldevices": [
      {
         "id": 0,
         "type": "bluetooth",
         "device": "tpacpi_bluetooth_sw",
         "soft": "unblocked",
         "hard": "unblocked"
      },{
         "id": 1,
         "type": "wwan",
         "device": "tpacpi_wwan_sw",
         "soft": "unblocked",
         "hard": "unblocked"
      },{
         "id": 3,
         "type": "wlan",
         "device": "phy0",
         "soft": "unblocked",
         "hard": "unblocked"
      },{
         "id": 4,
         "type": "bluetooth",
         "device": "hci0",
         "soft": "unblocked",
         "hard": "unblocked"
      }
   ]
}

$ ./rfkill -J list bluetooth
{
   "rfkilldevices": [
      {
         "id": 0,
         "type": "bluetooth",
         "device": "tpacpi_bluetooth_sw",
         "soft": "unblocked",
         "hard": "unblocked"
      },{
         "id": 4,
         "type": "bluetooth",
         "device": "hci0",
         "soft": "unblocked",
         "hard": "unblocked"
      }
   ]
}
```
