Hi,
please find code comments inline below.
Do you plan to extend the Lua binding as well?
Also I wonder what the intended use case of this change is...
(lib)iwinfo was once meant to provide a common uniform subset of
wireless information across different driver backends such as
proprietary wl, madwifi, wext and nl80211.
Since the survey info here is only implemented for nl80211 and only
exposed in the C library interface (and the iwinfo cli) whats the
advantage compared to just using "iw" and native netlink?
Do you have some program depending on the libiwinfo C library?
Regards,
Jo

You need to check iw->survey != NULL, otherwise iwinfo will segfault
with non-nl80211 driver backends.

Why the extra casts here? Are they needed? Also please use
if (si[...])
entry->... = nla_get_...();
instead of ternary expressions.
