[RFT 0/2] cfg80211: UNII regulatory hints

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

 



From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

It was hinted to me a while ago that we can enhance
beacon hints a little more by taking advantage of
common regulatory assumptions globally on UNII 1
and UNII 3. This implements that idea.

What this will do is in short enable to lift passive
scan flags off of 5 GHz channels *faster* when cards
are world roaming. This means that we can also initiate
communication on channels on either UNII 1 or UNII 3
faster than before when world roaming.

Credit goes got David Quan for the idea.

  cfg80211: add a helper for processing 5 GHz beacon hints
  cfg80211: add 5 GHz UNII band regulatory hints
