Hi Tim, you're right, unfortunately the DFS documentation in [1] is quite outdated - basically in its initial state from 2011 when ath10k was unknown. It took around four years to get the work done, and since numerous parties contributed at different times and different modules (driver, mac/cfg, hostapd), the documentation has not always been updated accordingly. But the more important fact is: yes, ath10 and ath9k today fully support FCC. We certified one of our ath9k based products for FCC and ETSI some months ago, and I got confirmations that ath10k also passed certification testing for FCC. It is relevant to note that both drivers use the same radar pattern detector (and all upper layers anyway), so that if ath9k passed, ath10k most probably will also do (and vice versa).
