Wi-Fi Bluetooth for Linux

[YoTa_1693656]

Hello Cypress IOT team.

[Info]

- FMAC: 2020-01-15

https://community.cypress.com/docs/DOC-19000

- wpa_supplicant: version 2.9

[Background]

THE current FMAC driver does not call "wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory" when cfg80211 up. The "wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory" means applying a custom driver regulatory to the kernel.

Because of it, regulatory info does not match between chip side① and kernel side② like below.

====

wl channels

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... ①

./wpa_cli

> get_capability channels

Mode Channels: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 ...②

====

To call "wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory" when cfg80211 up, I modified FMAC source code "cfg80211.c". The patch is attached.

Then I can see an expected behavior.

[Need Help]

Please review the attached patch.

Thanks,

Yoshinori

Hi,

Thank you for the patch. It work with the current setup. The regulatory info is taken from the clm_blob that goes with the firmware. We currently dont use the information from the kernel regulatory information
