This (commit a2c1e3dad516618cb0fbfb1a62c36d0b0744573a) seems to cause
some changes that may not have been intended.. I'm not sure whether to
call them all regressions, but it does break my 802.11w test setup.. ;-)
With this change in place, robust management frames injected on a cooked
monitor interface do not get protected by mac80211 in station mode
(i.e., PMF in use on wlan0 and PTK in place; use mon0 to inject a
frame) while they used to get protected before this change. Reverting
this on top of wireless-testing.git now gets the old behavior back, too.
I have not verified whether this applies to other uses of cooked monitor
(e.g., Data frames or AP mode where Shared Key auth actually expects
injected frame to get protected in normal, non-testing-only use case).
Is this a bug? Or do I need to figure out another way of getting the
frames injected on a monitor interface encrypted by mac80211?
