I don't actually "love your patch" because I haven't even looked at it. The bot adds that text to sound more friendly... Presumably the patch is wanted, but I don't know. Anyway, yes, please do send a v2. regards, dan carpenter

Hi Dan,
whoops, right ... thank you!
Will do in a v2, at least if this patch is wanted. :)
Thank you!

Mhm. I remember you said that before. But I can't find references for it. I checked the FCC 15.407 document [1] but couldn't find anything in favor or against that. Same for the measurement procedures [2]. I also couldn't find off-channel CAC in FCC, which I used for my argument in ETSI: In ETSI 301 893 [3] they talk about non-continuous checks for off-channel CAC (in 4.2.6.2.3, second paragraph) and continuous period for CAC (4.2.6.2.2.2, first paragraph). Continuity is not mentioned for in-service monitoring (4.2.6.2.4), but off-channel CAC could only work when continuity is not required. I'd appreciate if you (or someone else) can point me to where it's stated that we can't leave the channel for the a short time. I'm assuming that we are back fast enough to ensure the required detection probability.

[PATCH] mac80211: allow scans on radar channels, unless there is CAC or CSA
Operating on a DFS channel doesn't mean we can't leave it for a short
time - actually, some features like off-channel CAC work by leaving the
operation channel to check other channels for availability (although
off-channel CAC isn't implemented in mac80211). In our case, we want to
use mesh while doing background surveys on other channels from time to
time.
Therefore, we can enable scans while on DFS channels, unless there is
CAC going on (must be continuous) or a CSA is happening.
