Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 1/1] wifi: mwifiex: added code to support host mlme.

Hello David,

For the next v5 please be sure to properly thread the series as
git-send-email would normally do (if you are going to have a cover
letter) or even better just add the changelog after the commit
message (separated with ---).


On Tue, Aug 15, 2023 at 07:09:25AM +0000, David Lin wrote:

I believe that this commit message should be rewritten, at least to me
this was confusing to read at first.

Maybe something like that?

```
wifi: mwifiex: add MLME support

Add host based MLME support for station mode to enable WPA3
functionalities.

This feature requires a firmware with key API major version 2 and is
currently enabled and tested only for IW416.
```

Was this patch tested to be wholly working with WPA3 or you expect
follow up patches for proper enabling WPA3 support?

What's the reasoning for having this in cfg80211.c?
Am I wrong or most of this binary structures are defined in fw.h?

I think this variable should be renamed to host_mlme_enabled or

for other functionalities you have everything at the end of
mwifiex_ret_get_hw_spec()

why not doing the same here? Just do the check in a similar way as done
for scan_chan_gap_enabled.
