Alright, i have linked it to the following bit of code:
if (bss->drv->device_ap_sme) {
u16 type = (WLAN_FC_TYPE_MGMT << 2) | (WLAN_FC_STYPE_AUTH << 4);
// Register for all Authentication frames
if (nl80211_register_frame(bss, bss->nl_mgmt, type, NULL, 0)
< 0)
wpa_printf(MSG_DEBUG,
"nl80211: Failed to subscribe to handle
Authentication frames - SAE offload may not work");
}
in the
static int nl80211_mgmt_subscribe_ap_dev_sme(struct i802_bss *bss)
function in driver_nl80211.c
It is the cause that hostapd registers for WLAN_FC_STYPE_AUTH and when
that message is received from the driver the code thinks we have an open
AP..even though the config is a PSK config..

I have commented out the whole of the "if (bss->drv->device_ap_sme)" if
statement and it works again (even in 2.9)
This could be a problem with my driver or a more generic problem.
if someone with more insight how this should work would like more
information then
please reach out and just ask what other information i can provide.
i'm happy to help, but for now this will get me past this hurdle.
thanks,
tom
