Arend,
I looked through the info where I got the latest firmware:
https://community.infineon.com/t5/Wi-Fi-Bluetooth-for-Linux/Wi-Fi-
A-class-Linux-Driver-release-FMAC-2024-11-21-Documents/td-p/905045

Cypress-Linux-WiFi-Driver-Release-FMAC-2024-11-21/td-p/902888
and did not find anything, but I really do not know what I am
looking for.
I think I had a bit more luck and maybe found the needle. I sent out
another RFT patch which hopefully gets rid of the BCME_BADLEN error.
Regards,
Arend
Arend,
Can you send me a link to that patch? I want to try it.
Hmm. I explicitly sent it to you, but here is a link to patchwork:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/
patch/20241215120401.238320-1-arend.vanspriel@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
You can apply it on top of the other 3 patches.
Regards,
Arend
Thanks! I got it.
I am building now and have tried to apply what I think are the correct
patches. They do not apply cleanly and I had to hand edit things. My
guess is I messed something up.
I will see what happens when I reboot. It'll take a few hours to build
on my Pi4 then for me to install it on the 3b+ to test.
I hope I understand which are the '3 other' patches.
This is the one I got from your link:
RFT-brcmfmac-Fix-structure-size-for-WPA3-external-SAE.diff
These are what I understand are the '3 other patches'
RFT-v2-1-3-wifi-brcmfmac-support-per-vendor-cfg80211-callbacks-and-
firmware-events.patch.diff
RFT-v2-2-3-wifi-brcmfmac-make-per-vendor-event-map-const.patch.diff
RFT-v2-3-3-wifi-brcmfmac-cyw-support-external-SAE-authentication-in-
station-mode.patch.diff
If they are not correct could you send me links to them and I'll try
again.
You got it right. Kuddos.
Ignored my spelling checker, but apparently it should be "kudos".
Another lesson learned today.
Regards,
Arend
Arend,
Thanks for the confirmation. My attempt at a hand edit to apply the
rejected portions resulted in a failed build with the current RPiOS
kernel in the git repo:
# uname -a
Linux jackrune 6.6.64-v8+ #6 SMP PREEMPT Sun Dec 15 23:55:30 CST 2024
aarch64 GNU/Linux
When I try to apply them, I get this:

Is there another missing patch?
The kernel for the RPi is at this commit:
commit 80533a952218696c0ef1b346bab50dc401e6b74c (HEAD -> rpi-6.6.y,
origin/rpi-6.6.y, origin/HEAD)
So what repository does origin refer to. Can you share the URL?
I will check if I posted any patches between 6.6 and 6.10+ Get back to
this later o
Regards,
Arend
Arend,
I am using the RaspberryPi repo:
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux
I was afraid you would say that. So we need to determine what brcmfmac
patches are in there compared to upstream kernel. So checking the code I
think you should apply only the "Fix-structure-size" patch to
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/fwil_types.h. Let me
know if that works for you.
Gr. AvS
Arend,
That patch applied to the file in the folder you suggested. I am
building a kernel now and will see any changes this evening. Thanks
for the help.
Regards,
Keith
Arend,
Thanks for the guidance and help.
I tried with the patched kernel and was unable to connect. The 2
attached files are the log with brcmfmac debugging and iwd debugging
turned o. and the other is an iwmon capture of an attempt to connect.
This time, though, I get no IP address at all. Just an error out when
I try to connect using iwctl. I get:
[iwd]# station wlan0 connect deskSAE
Type the network passphrase for deskSAE psk.
Passphrase: *********
Operation failed
NetworkConfigurationEnabled: enabled
StateDirectory: /var/lib/iwd
Version: 3.1
This is with kernel:
Linux jackrune 6.6.66-v8+ #7 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 18 10:18:01 CST 2024
aarch64 GNU/Linux
and this firmware:

Even closer this time. I've just sent a patch to the IWD mailing list.
Please try that along with Arend's kernel patch.
Thanks,
