I don't think this is a good idea -- the state of a channel being "disabled" can change due to regulatory database, so it's useful to know which channels are actually registered and disabled via regulatory and which aren't even present at all. Since you must be hacking the drivers anyway, you could just not register those channels you're not using, right? Maybe there'd be a way to allocate larger messages, but I suppose the right fix would be to split up the dump in a way that it can support arbitrarily many channels, which will also require userspace changes though (and has to be done in a backward compatible way.) johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
