regulatory.bin(5)
NAME
regulatory.bin - The Linux wireless regulatory database
Description
regulatory.bin is the file used by the Linux wireless subsystem to keep
its regulatory database information. It is read by crda upon the Linux
kernel's request for regulatory information for a specific ISO / IEC
3166 alpha2 country code. The regulatory database is kept in a small
binary format for size and code efficiency. The regulatory.bin file can
be parsed and read in human format by using the regdbdump command. The
regulatory.bin file should be updated upon regulatory changes or corrections.
Upkeeping
The regulatory database is maintained by the community as such you are
encouraged to send any corrections or updates to the linux-wireless
mailing list: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org
