Subject: [RFC] mac80211: Handle power constraint level advertised in 11d+h beacon
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2008 18:22:35 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1230641555-13425-1-git-send-email-vasanth@atheros.com> (raw)

This patch uses power constraint level while determining the maximum
transmit power, there by it makes sure that any power mitigation
requirement for the channel in the current regulatory domain is met.
