These two values are ok. > 2: Supports both hardware and software crypto with raw mode TX/RX > encapsulation to the firmware. By default hardware crypto engine is > used.

But this the problematic one. I cannot apply something to ath10k until Johannes applies the mac80211 part. Didn't I mention this already earlier? At least I was supposed to do that. And most importantly does Johannes even agree with the approach? IIRC he was pretty reluctant about configuring the crypto mode via nl80211. I suggest splitting the patch into two: patch 1 adding support for cryptmode values 0 and 1, patch 2 adding support for cryptmode 2. That way we can commit patch 1 early and see what we can do with patch 2. -- Kalle Valo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
