Subject: ieee80211_regdom module parameter for cfg80211
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2009 15:29:36 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <499C7DC0.4040608@lwfinger.net> (raw)

On at least one forum, I have seen the recommendation that a user set their
regulatory domain by creating the file /etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211 with the
contents "ieee80211_regdom=US".

That works as long as CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY is set in their .config,
but will fail if it is not.

Should the module_param statement be moved outside the ifdef
CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD...? Setting the module parameter that way might not make any
sense, but it surely shouldn't kill wireless.
