There are two Linux kernel wifi APIs: nl80211 (newer, better, preferred) and WEXT (old, limited functionality, deprecated). Obviously wpa_supplicant must work with both, so it has "drivers" to talk to the kernel APIs. I suppose we should be clearer about what "driver" we're talking about. Here I'm talking about the supplicant driver, since the kernel driver exposes both nl80211 and WEXT APIs. The supplicant can select which one it wants to communicate via through the "-D" option to wpa_supplicant.
