Subject: Question about ath9k compliancy with upcoming EN 301 893 v2.0.7

Dear all,

ETSI is publishing in the coming months an update of the EN 301 893
standard with major changes on the adaptivity and receiver blocking
tests behavior (https://www.nts.com/ntsblog/upcoming-changes-for-wireless-equipment-in-the-5-ghz-band-en-301-893/).
The adaptivity test requirements will now require the 802.11 link
being stopped in the case of some particular OFDM interference signal.
I was looking on the mailing list archive for information about the
modifications required in the ath9k in order to keep compliancy but I
did not found any relevant discussion. Would someone know if the ath9k
driver can be configured to break connection at the detection of high
enough OFDM signal not compliant with the 802.11 standard?

Many thanks in advance for any help

Best regards
