+ This option enables some additional warnings that help

+ trigger due to races with userspace.
+
+ For example, when a driver reports that it was disconnected
+ from the AP, but the user disconnects manually at the same

+ You should disable this option unless you are both capable

+ Some options may still be under heavy development and

+ cannot yet be verified. Regulatory verification may at
+ times only be possible until you have the final system
+ in place.
+
+ This option should only be enabled by system integrators
+ or distributions that have done work necessary to ensure
+ regulatory certification on the system with the enabled
+ features. Alternatively you can enable this option if
+ you are a wireless researcher and are working in a controlled
+ and approved environment by your local regulatory agency.
