 +===== Status =====
 +
 +The new regulatory infrastructure went in as of 2.6.28, so CRDA can be used in kernels >= 2.6.28. It is required for 802.11d operation in 2.6.29.
 +
 +CRDA is no longer needed as of kernel v4.15 since commit [[https://​git.kernel.org/​pub/​scm/​linux/​kernel/​git/​torvalds/​linux.git/​commit/?​id=007f6c5e6eb45 | 007f6c5e6eb45]] ("​cfg80211:​ support loading regulatory database as firmware file") added support to use the kernel'​s firmware request API which looks for the firmware on /​lib/​firmware.
