Maybe so. But it cannot tell wpa_supplicant about MIC errors, and so that cannot do countermeasures, so something isn't right. > Shall we have a ieee80211_hw_flags for the driver to advertise TKIP MIC > error reporting capability when hw encap is enabled ? > TKIP bring-up will be disabled for the drivers which doesn't have the > capability. That would be better, since for TKIP it's actually more tricky and requires more work. But mostly I was thinking that you should make it possible for ath11k to actually report the MIC errors up to userspace. Right now I don't think it can, because it doesn't have the netdev pointer? johannes
