47 * the channel provided. This allows the wireless core to make educated
48 * guesses on regulatory to help with world roaming. This is only used for
49 * world roaming -- when we do not know our current location. This is
50 * only useful on channels 12, 13 and 14 on the 2 GHz band as channels
51 * 1-11 are already enabled by the world regulatory domain; and on
52 * non-radar 5 GHz channels.
54 * Drivers do not need to call this, cfg80211 will do it for after a scan
55 * on a newly found BSS. If you cannot make use of this feature you can
56 * set the wiphy->disable_beacon_hints to true.

73 * sending us incorrect or outdated information against a country.
75 * The AP is expected to provide Country IE channel triplets for the
76 * band it is on. It is technically possible for APs to send channel
77 * country IE triplets even for channels outside of the band they are
78 * in but for that they would have to use the regulatory extension
79 * in combination with a triplet but this behaviour is currently
80 * not observed. For this reason if a triplet is seen with channel
81 * information for a band the BSS is not present in it will be ignored.

93 * and go to another country, whether or not we suspend and resume.
94 * If we suspend, go to another country and resume we'll automatically
95 * get disconnected shortly after resuming and things will be reset as well.
96 * This routine is a helper to restore regulatory settings to how they were
97 * prior to our first connect attempt. This includes ignoring country IE and
98 * beacon regulatory hints. The ieee80211_regdom module parameter will always
99 * be respected but if a user had set the regulatory domain that will take
100 * precedence.
102 * Must be called from process context.
