Description

12       regulatory.bin is the file used by the Linux wireless subsystem to keep
13       its regulatory database information. It is read by crda upon the Linux
14       kernel's request for regulatory information for a specific ISO / IEC
15       3166 alpha2 country code. The regulatory database is kept in a small
16       binary format for size and code efficiency. The regulatory.bin file can
17       be parsed and read in human format by using the regdbdump command. The
18       regulatory.bin file should be updated upon regulatory changes or cor‐
19       rections.
