Hi,

Any comments on the last series?

Thanks in advance,

Ilan.

> As before, this series addresses the option of enabling additional channels
> for use based on the following relaxations:
> 
> 1. Indoor operation, where a device can use channels requiring indoor
>    operation, subject to that it can guarantee indoor operation.
> 2. Concurrent GO operation, where devices may instantiate a P2P GO
>    while they are under the guidance of an authorized master.
> 
> The series includes:
> 
> * Some clarification (mainly in documentation) about the intended usage of
>   channels marked as INDOOR_ONLY and CONCURRENT GO.
> * Mapping of NL80211_RFF_NO_OUTDOOR to
> NL80211_CHAN_INDOOR_ONLY
> * Support for a user hint that the platform is operating in an indoor
>   environment, i.e., channel marked as INDOOR_ONLY can be used.
> * Allow initiating radiation on channel marked with INDOOR_ONLY also
>   for scanning an frame injection in monitor mode.
> * Some additional fixes for comments I got.
> 
> Following is an example of a possible channel map that can be used to allow
> the INDOOR_ONLY and CONCURRENT_GO relaxations. Note that:
> 
> * Channels 12,13 are marked as Concurrent GO, so even in the lack of exact
>   information about the current regulatory domain, these channels can be
> used
>   for GO instantiation based on the concurrent GO relaxation.
> * The above is also true for channels 149-165 (a.k.a U-NII 3).
> * Channels 36-48 (a.k.a thee U-NII 1), are marked both with Concurrent GO
> and
