Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] cfg80211: reg: remove support for built-in regdb
Date: Mon,  9 Oct 2017 11:50:17 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171009095018.5289-4-johannes@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171009095018.5289-1-johannes@sipsolutions.net>

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Parsing and building C structures from a regdb is no longer needed
since the "firmware" file (regulatory.db) can be linked into the
kernel image to achieve the same effect.

 Statically compiled regulatory database
 ---------------------------------------
 
-In most situations the userland solution using CRDA as described
-above is the preferred solution.  However in some cases a set of
-rules built into the kernel itself may be desirable.  To account
-for this situation, a configuration option has been provided
-(i.e. CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB).  With this option enabled,
-the wireless database information contained in net/wireless/db.txt is
-used to generate a data structure encoded in net/wireless/regdb.c.
-That option also enables code in net/wireless/reg.c which queries
-the data in regdb.c as an alternative to using CRDA.
-
-The file net/wireless/db.txt should be kept up-to-date with the db.txt
-file available in the git repository here:
-
-    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sforshee/wireless-regdb.git
-
-Again, most users in most situations should be using the CRDA package
-provided with their distribution, and in most other situations users
-should be building and using CRDA on their own rather than using
-this option.  If you are not absolutely sure that you should be using
-CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB then _DO_NOT_USE_IT_.
+When a database should be fixed into the kernel, it can be provided as a
+firmware file at build time that is then linked into the kernel.
