As it should, really.

In a multi-radio scenario, global interface
combination encompasses the capabilities of all radio combinations, so it
supports more than one channel with DFS.

No, that's not correct, it doesn't.

But the attribute comment section clearly says the Global iface combination encompass all radio combination as below

* @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_INTERFACE_COMBINATIONS: Nested attribute listing * the
*      supported interface combinations for all radios combined. In each
*      nested item, it contains attributes defined in
*      &enum nl80211_if_combination_attrs.

Is my understanding incorrect ?


For multi-radio per wiphy,
interface combination verification needs to be performed for radio specific
interface combinations.

Agree, but it shouldn't make an exception for DFS.


This is necessary as the global interface
combination combines the capabilities of all radio combinations.

No, it doesn't.
