[PATCH v6 3/4] cfg80211: return private regdom for self-managed devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If a device has self-managed regulatory, insist on returning the wiphy
specific regdomain if a wiphy-idx is specified. The global regdomain is
meaningless for such devices.

Also add an attribute for self-managed devices, so usermode can
distinguish them as such.
