Hoi Jouni,
Not sure which email address to use ;-) I noticed a while ago that FILS
offloading was on the agenda of wireless workshop in Santa Fe. Recently,
looked at the FILS patches that were applied upstream and noticed:
static bool nl80211_valid_auth_type(struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev,
enum nl80211_auth_type auth_type,
enum nl80211_commands cmd)
{
...
switch (cmd) {
...
case NL80211_CMD_CONNECT:
case NL80211_CMD_START_AP:
/* SAE not supported yet */
if (auth_type == NL80211_AUTHTYPE_SAE)
return false;
/* FILS not supported yet */
if (auth_type == NL80211_AUTHTYPE_FILS_SK ||
auth_type == NL80211_AUTHTYPE_FILS_SK_PFS ||
auth_type == NL80211_AUTHTYPE_FILS_PK)
return false;
return true;
default:
return false;
}
}
Are there any plans on QCA side to add FILS support for fullmac devices,
ie. supporting CONNECT command.
Regards,
Arend

We do indeed have a patch going through internal review for this (well,
for the station part NL80211_CMD_CONNECT, not _START_AP). I hope to get
that posted shortly for public review.
