When doing scan while 6GHz channels are not enabled, the 6GHz band is not scanned. Thus, if there are no APs on the 2GHz and 5GHz bands (that will allow discovery of geographic location etc. that would allow enabling the 6GHz channels) but there are non collocated APs on 6GHz PSC channels these would never be discovered. To overcome this, FW added support for performing passive UHB scan in case no APs were discovered during scan on the 2GHz and 5GHz channels. Add support for enabling such scan when the following conditions are met: - 6GHz channels are supported but not enabled by regulatory. - Station interface is not associated or less than a defined time interval passed from the last resume or HW reset flows. - At least 4 channels are included in the scan request - The scan request includes the widlcard SSID. - At least 50 minutes passed from the last 6GHz passive scan.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
