What: old static regulatory information and ieee80211_regdom module parameter
|
||||
When: 2.6.29
|
||||
What: The ieee80211_regdom module parameter
|
||||
When: March 2010 / desktop catchup
|
||||
|
||||
Why: This was inherited by the CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY code,
|
||||
and currently serves as an option for users to define an
|
||||
ISO / IEC 3166 alpha2 code for the country they are currently
|
||||
present in. Although there are userspace API replacements for this
|
||||
through nl80211 distributions haven't yet caught up with implementing
|
||||
decent alternatives through standard GUIs. Although available as an
|
||||
option through iw or wpa_supplicant its just a matter of time before
|
||||
distributions pick up good GUI options for this. The ideal solution
|
||||
would actually consist of intelligent designs which would do this for
|
||||
the user automatically even when travelling through different countries.
|
||||
Until then we leave this module parameter as a compromise.
|
||||
|
||||
When userspace improves with reasonable widely-available alternatives for
|
||||
this we will no longer need this module parameter. This entry hopes that
|
||||
by the super-futuristically looking date of "March 2010" we will have
|
||||
such replacements widely available.

|

What: CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY - old static regulatory information
|
||||
When: March 2010 / desktop catchup
|
||||
|
||||
Why: The old regulatory infrastructure has been replaced with a new one
|
||||
which does not require statically defined regulatory domains. We do
|
||||
not want to keep static regulatory domains in the kernel due to the
|
||||
the dynamic nature of regulatory law and localization. We kept around
|
||||
the old static definitions for the regulatory domains of:
|
||||
|
||||
* US
|
||||
* JP
|
||||
* EU
|
||||
|
||||
and used by default the US when CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY was
|
||||
set. We also kept around the ieee80211_regdom module parameter in case
|
||||
some applications were relying on it. Changing regulatory domains
|
||||
can now be done instead by using nl80211, as is done with iw.
|
||||
set. We will remove this option once the standard Linux desktop catches
|
||||
up with the new userspace APIs we have implemented.
