So wpa_supplicant just looks for the PORT_AUTHORIZED > attribute and deals with it without need for checking 4-way handshake > offload is supported. There are two such cases - the driver is old and doesn't provide it, but of course once you see the attribute you know that's not the case. And the case that the driver doesn't support 4-way-HS. Can you really distinguish these though if you *don't* see the attribute? But anyway, if it's like mac80211 not providing the data at all, then it would say authorized, which seems wrong since that's clearly not the case for mac80211? Or maybe I'm just confused. johannes
