Subject: [RFT 0/2] cfg80211: UNII regulatory hints
Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2012 17:25:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1344644750-14000-1-git-send-email-mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> (raw)

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com>

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.
