As mentioned below, frequency offset is not used in the current kernel.
I would like to contribute to the kernel so that the use of the S1G band
can operate completely, but I cannot afford it.
Therefore, I am using the S1G band by modifying some parts of the kernel
and hostap on my own.
A more detailed explanation of the kernel modifications is as follows:
1.Function to convert frequency and channel index according to the country.
2. Skip the regulation check on the S1G band.
3. Bandwidth setting for the S1G band and other changes.
However, as you know, in order to apply a patch with these modifications,
there are parts that must be preceded.
So, I have uploaded a patch that can be easily checked in terms of logic
to see if it needs fixing.
We will gradually upload patches to fully support the S1G band.
