Hi David, > Johannes agreed that cfg80211 is the correct way for the development of mwifiex > (mac80211 can't offload association process to driver/FW). that was never my question here. > This patch is used to fully leverage SME of wpa_supplicant and hostapd which can complete the missing WPA3 feature of mwifiex. > The patch series had been reviewed and discussed. It looks like there is no more comments for patch v10. > I wonder can patch v10 be accepted by you? If your hardware is a FullMac hardware then what is the point in now separating auth/assoc out. Is this done just for WPA3 or also for WPA2/WPA1. Are you no longer a FullMac hardware? You keep saying that you just want to support WPA3 and if previously the HW worked as FullMac hardware, then external_auth should be the way to go for having SAE handled by wpa_supplicant (or iwd for that matter). Now if you are fully embracing to auth/assoc and we can remove the support for the connect ops, then lets do it. However I don’t see anything properly described in the commit message. You keep saying WPA3 support and nothing else explain what the new Key V2 API of the firmware would do. Regards Marcel
