Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] <wireless-regdb>: Adds the option to copy "regulatory.db[.p7s]" to /lib/firmware
Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2018 23:01:10 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180712200110.4818-1-me@noctarius.com> (raw)

Certain wireless drivers (like the Broadcom FullMac drivers" expect the regulatory.db and
regulatory.db.p7s files to be available to be loadable from /lib/firmware. If not available
the driver still loads but runs on a minimal subset of channels.

This newly added option gives possibility to have those files copied to the necessary directory.
