From 10773a7c09b327d02144c7d181e6544b7015ffc7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Srinivas Dasari Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2018 17:13:39 +0200 Subject: nl80211: Allow SAE Authentication for NL80211_CMD_CONNECT This commit allows SAE Authentication for NL80211_CMD_CONNECT interface, provided host driver advertises the support. Host drivers may offload the SAE authentication to user space through NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH interface and thus expect the user space to advertise support to handle offload through NL80211_ATTR_EXTERNAL_AUTH_SUPPORT in NL80211_CMD_CONNECT request. Such drivers should reject the connect request on no offload support from user space.
