привязка к wifi интерфейсу в linux

Этот фрагмент может помочь вам, он более сложный, чем я предполагал:

if (getifaddrs(&ifaddrs) < 0) {
my_loge(CRIT, "address detection failed");
return(0);
}

// zero
count = 0;

// unset all but CAP_HOST and CAP_ROUTER
sysinfo->cap &= (CAP_HOST|CAP_ROUTER);
sysinfo->cap_active &= (CAP_HOST|CAP_ROUTER);
// reset counter
sysinfo->physif_count = 0;

// mark all interfaces
TAILQ_FOREACH(netif, netifs, entries) {
netif->type = NETIF_OLD;
}

for (ifaddr = ifaddrs; ifaddr != NULL; ifaddr = ifaddr->ifa_next) {

// skip interfaces without addresses
if (ifaddr->ifa_addr == NULL) {
    my_log(INFO, "skipping interface %s", ifaddr->ifa_name);
    continue;
}

// only handle datalink addresses
if (ifaddr->ifa_addr->sa_family != NETIF_AF)
    continue;

// prepare ifr struct
memset(&ifr, 0, sizeof(ifr));
strlcpy(ifr.ifr_name, ifaddr->ifa_name, sizeof(ifr.ifr_name));


// skip non-ethernet interfaces
memcpy(&saddrll, ifaddr->ifa_addr, sizeof(saddrll));
if (saddrll.sll_hatype != ARPHRD_ETHER) {
    my_log(INFO, "skipping interface %s", ifaddr->ifa_name);
    continue;
}
index = saddrll.sll_ifindex;
memcpy(&saddrdl, ifaddr->ifa_addr, sizeof(saddrdl));
if ((saddrdl.sdl_type != IFT_BRIDGE) &&
    (saddrdl.sdl_type != IFT_ETHER)) {
if (saddrdl.sdl_type != IFT_ETHER) {
    my_log(INFO, "skipping interface %s", ifaddr->ifa_name);
    continue;

    enabled = (ifr.ifr_flags & IFF_UP);

type = netif_type(sockfd, index, ifaddr, &ifr);
