I am missing the bigger picture here. It should really be determined
by the band in which the interface type is operating, right? Can you
refer to patches on the hostap mailing list relying on this one?
HE capabilities are exposed to user space via NL80211_BAND_IFTYPE_ATTR_*
as each iftype has different set of capabilities. My last series of
hostapd
6 GHz changes are depending on HT/VHT capability for IE and config
validation.
Planning to get rid of such dependency by announcing 6 GHz capability by
driver
and use it in hostapd. Will post hostapd changes sooner.
