The main requirements:
- support CCMP encryption/decryption of unicast robust management frames
(subset of Action frames, Deauthentication, Disassociation)
- support BIP and IGTK configuration for group addressed robust
management frames (TX-only for AP, RX-only for STA); I would expect
most drivers to use software implementation on the host CPU for this
taken into account that there is only very limited use of group
addressed robust management frames
- SA Query mechanism (mac80211-based drivers get this pretty much
automatically from hostapd for AP mode and mac80211 for STA)
- ability to configure RSN capabilities into RSN element and to
provide the received element to user space (again, most mac80211-based
drivers should work as-is)
