iwl20x_ax_enable

This kernel livepatch enables 802.11ax mode for Intel AX201/AX200 WLAN adapter in Ukraine and/or Russia.

The module should be loaded as regular livepatch. iwl20x_ax_en should be loaded before iwlwifi (see iwlwifi.conf).

The module iwl20x_ax_en.ko should be signed with your MOK key if the system boots in EFI Secure Boot mode. (See RHEL documentation on Signing kernel modules for secure boot)

Requirements

Linux kernel version >=5.14 or RHEL release >=8.6.
