I would assume that some drivers have already supported this in the past, but there must have been some hacks in place, e.g., to avoid the WPI PN configuration that I fixed in the other patch from yesterday. There is still a small piece needed for AP mode to indicate some events that I hope to get submitted once I actually understand what it does ;-). In addition, better configuration of the AKM could be useful to get added eventually. Johannes covered other parts of the question and I don't have anything to add at this point. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA
