I can see where you might not be particularly sympathetic to this concern, but where I re-started this thread, I added in Jouni, due to his mention of: "There are such drivers [supporting FT] especially in number of Android devices and I'd rather not break those use cases.." [1] That doesn't exactly sound like a case where he's willing to break compatibility with older kernels in new wpa_supplicant. But maybe I shouldn't put words in his mouth. (On the other hand, Android systems are likely to not ever get either kernel *or* wpa_supplicant version upgrades, so maybe it's not really a problem at all!) Anyway, I'll just cook a patch, and then figure out whether/how I can teach wpa_supplicant to respect it. (Or, continue forking wpa_supplicant as we have been wont to do...)
