Hi,

I'm not sure this is the right place to ask for some assistance, but
here we go...

I'm the author for a small Raspberry Pi audio image that is
specifically targeting Roon.
If you're not familiair with Roon: it's an audio streaming platform
targeting audiophiles ;-)

Anyways, about a year ago I switched from wpa_supplicant to iwd, to
full satisfaction.
Better and easier integration, and overall a feel of me being in more control.

Now, recently I'm having issues with WPA3 support. This is partly
related to firmware (it's just so obfuscated how this all works with
firmware from broadcom and firmware from cypress :-(

And one of those things is that I can't get it to work on the new Pi
5. Specifically IWD reporting this:

Apr 29 17:41:41 ropieee5 iwd[275]: src/wiphy.c:wiphy_select_akm()
Network is WPA3-Personal...
Apr 29 17:41:41 ropieee5 iwd[275]: SAE unsupported: brcmfmac needs
CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH for SAE
Apr 29 17:41:41 ropieee5 iwd[275]: src/wiphy.c:wiphy_select_akm()
Can't use SAE, trying WPA2

Now, the Pi guys point me to the missing CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH message and
advise me to go back to wpa_supplicant. Which is not something I would
like to do for various reasons...

Do you have any advice for me on what I can do? is this
CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH really related to  this and are you planning on
implementing this?

Thanks
