Hi,
I added wpa support to airo driver some years ago, but I maintain the
support as a OutOfTreeDrivers [1]. I use it everyday in wpa mode.
It can't be merged in main because the wpa support is selected by a
module option. I did this because supporting wpa and other mode together
may need a large rewrite of the driver (when I did first
experimentation, I got firmware hang if I mix wpa command that use a new
firmware API and wep command that use old firmware API).
But they have been some work to make it ok for main Linux tree [2], but
it failed because of some issues [3].
I don't have time nor interest to continue the work made in [2].
May be somebody is interested.

Dan Williams :
One problem I have is that after setting the TKIP key, I always get a
sequence of 3 bad MICs, and then the MAC sends a status of 0x8117 which
causes the driver to send a disconnection event to userspace, which
makes wpa_supplicant fail the connection. If I comment out the 'goto
badrx;' in the interrupt handler where the WPA mic is checked,
everything works great and I can complete the 4-way handshake. It needs
more investigation, but do you have any thoughts on what might be going
on here?
