[PATCH] cfg80211: Fetch wiphy DFS domain if it is self-managed

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

 



Currently during CAC start or other radar events, the DFS
domain is fetched from cfg based on global DFS setting.

But this could be different in case of self managed wiphy's
in case the self managed driver updates its database or supports
regions which has DFS domain set to UNSET in cfg80211 local
regdomain.

This avoids AP bringup failure for these self-managed drivers
when such conflict occurs.
