[RFC PATCH 0/2] cfg80211: minor updates for WPA3 OWE support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello Johannes and all,

This patch series suggests a couple of minor changes related to WPA3 OWE.
One patch adds define for OWE AKM suite. Another patch disables strict
validation for UPDATE_OWE command.

When strict validation is enabled, kernel rejects appropriate hostapd
command with 'unsupported attribute' error message. This message is
related to status attribute NL80211_ATTR_STATUS_CODE, which is added
to nl80211 messsage using nla_put_u16.

Let me know if disabling strict validation is now frowned upon and
there is a more appropriate way to make existing hostapd command to
work properly.

Regards,
Sergey
