2012-01-04cfg80211: relicense reg.c reg.h and genregdb.awk to ISCLuis R. Rodriguez1-0/+16
Following the tradition we have had with ath5k, ath9k, CRDA, wireless-regdb I'd like to license this code under the permissive ISC license for the code sharing purposes with other OSes, it'd sure be nice to help the landscape in this area. Although I am %82.89 owner of the regulatory code I have asked every contributor to the regulatory code and have receieved positive Acked-bys from everyone except two deceased entities: o Frans Pop RIP 2010 [0] - Frans Pop <elendil@planet.nl> - Frans Pop <fjp@debian.org> o Nokia RIP February, 11, 2011 [1], [2] - ext-yuri.ershov@nokia.com - kalle.valo@nokia.com Frans Pop's contribution was a simple patch 55f98938, titled, "wireless: remove trailing space in messages" which just add a \n to some printk lines. I'm going to treat these additions as uncopyrightable. As for the contributions made by employees on behalf of Nokia my contact point was Petri Karhula <petri.karhula@nokia.com> but after one month he noted he had not been able to get traction from the legal department on this request, as such it I proceeded by replacing their contributions in previous patches. The end goal is to help a clean rewrite that starts in userspace that is shared under ISC license which currently is taking place with the regulatory simulator [3].

2009-12-22wireless: support internal statically compiled regulatory databaseJohn W. Linville1-0/+7
This patch provides infrastructure for machine translation of the regulatory rules database used by CRDA into a C data structure. It includes code for searching that database as an alternative to dynamic regulatory rules updates via CRDA. Most people should use CRDA instead of this infrastructure, but it provides a better alternative than the WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY infrastructure (which can now be removed). Signed-off-by: John W.
