DESCRIPTION
The lib80211 library is an interface to the net80211(4) infrastructure.
It implements wrappers around the net80211(4) ioctl command, as well as
providing a convenient API to access the regulatory database.
The lib80211_alloc_regdata() and lib80211_free_regdata() function
allocates / frees a regdata structure to store regulatory domain
information in.
The lib80211_regdomain_readconfig() and lib80211_regdomain_cleanup()
functions read in the regulatory database XML configuration and free it
when finished.
The lib80211_regdomain_findbysku() and lib80211_regdomain_findbyname()
functions look up a regulatory domain entry by SKU enum and SKU name
The lib80211_alloc_regdata(), lib80211_regdomain_readconfig(),
lib80211_regdomain_findbysku(), lib80211_regdomain_findbyname(),
lib80211_country_findbycc(), lib80211_country_findbyname() return NULL
upon error.
