OK, at least that answers the question what you'd want to do with it :)
For dynamic link change, it is another new topic, so I have not good advise
for that.😁
But everyone's looking at that?
I see there hare some patches in mac80211/cfg80211 for dynamic link
removal such as
"wifi: mac80211: Support link removal using Reconfiguration ML element".
For link
removal, it does not effect the EML issue I said. Only link add
operation without (re)assoc
(35.3.6 ML reconfiguration of IEEE P802.11be™/D3.2 disallow (re)assoc
for link add)
will impact the EML issue I said. But I did not see dynamic link add
patch now. Will
you also do the patches for dynamic link add without (re)assoc?
Honestly I'm not even sure - and you might know better - what the EML
capabilities matter for if you never enable EML.
So almost feels like if you never send the EML OMN frame (thanks for the
name!) the AP wouldn't really care, and that's something you could do
very easily without changing it, i.e. you pretend that your 2.4 GHz
actually has EML, you just never enable it in case 2.4 GHz is active?
Your advise maybe feasible. Then no change is needed in nl80211 here for
the EML.
