The primary use case is to enable more of the spectrum to be used, since in ETSI countries it's legal. Even 5GHz is getting pretty crowded in cities. > > On what hardware and firmware did you test this? It might be that not > all hardware or firmware support this. It's tested on IPQ4018, 10.4-3.6-00140 FW if I remember correctly as some time has passed. If HW does not support it then BDF-s and caldata should disable it? > > There was a concern if this slows down scanning due to more channels > being scanned, but I haven't analysed that yet. Did you measure that? No, I have not thought of that. Even if it does, I don't think that 3 channels more would drastically increase scan time. > > Also please CC linux-wireless on ath10k patches.
