    cfg80211: Allow drivers to advertise supported AKM suites · ab4dfa20
    Veerendranath Jakkam authored
    There was no such capability advertisement from the driver and thus the
    current user space has to assume the driver to support all the AKMs. While
    that may be the case with some drivers (e.g., mac80211-based ones), there
    are cfg80211-based drivers that implement SME and have constraints on
    which AKMs can be supported (e.g., such drivers may need an update to
    support SAE AKM using NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH). Allow such drivers to
    advertise the exact set of supported AKMs so that user space tools can
    determine what network profile options should be allowed to be configured.
