This option enables the old static regulatory information
|
||||
and uses it within the new framework. This is available
|
||||
temporarily as an option to help prevent immediate issues
|
||||
due to the switch to the new regulatory framework which
|
||||
does require a new userspace application which has the
|
||||
database of regulatory information (CRDA) and another for
|
||||
setting regulatory domains (iw).
|
||||
and uses it within the new framework. This option is available
|
||||
for historical reasons and it is advised to leave it off.
|
||||

|
||||
It is important to note though that if you *do* have CRDA present
|
||||
and if this option is enabled CRDA *will* be called to update the
|
||||
regulatory domain (for US and JP only). Support for letting the user
|
||||
set the regulatory domain through iw is also supported. This option
|
||||
mainly exists to leave around for a kernel release some old static
|
||||
regulatory domains that were defined and to keep around the old
|
||||
ieee80211_regdom module parameter. This is being phased out and you
|
||||
should stop using them ASAP.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: You will need CRDA if you want 802.11d support
|
||||
|
||||
Say Y unless you have installed a new userspace application.
|
||||
Also say Y if have one currently depending on the ieee80211_regdom
|
||||
module parameter and cannot port it to use the new userspace
|
||||
interfaces.
|
||||
Say N and if you say Y, please tell us why. The default is N.
