I'm writing a wireless driver that will use mac80211.  I am developing
with a 2.6.28-00106 version kernel.  I took a look at the files in
net/mac80211 and I don't see any code that looks at the country
element in beacons and probe responses.  Am I missing something?  Does
mac80211 handle country specific settings and regulatory domains?  If
so, could you please tell me where I can find that code?  I need to
figure out how to support 802.11j.  If country specific information is
not supported at present, do you have a plan for when it will be?

Also, does mac80211 handle 802.11a action messages like the ones to
change channels?

Thanks for you help.
