#19474: No 802.11s (mesh point) support in mt76 driver
---------------------------------+----------------------------------

Hi,
The mt76 driver used for the 802.11ac radio in the Xiaomi MiWiFi Mini does
not allow selecting the 802.11s (mesh point) mode.
It seems that the "#ifdef CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH" checks in lines 745 and
819 of the file
[[https://github.com/openwrt/mt76/blob/master/init.c|init.c]](1) of the
[[mt76 driver|https://github.com/openwrt/mt76]](2) disable this mode. If
the check is disabled, 802.11s can be selected and used normally (see
attached iw outputs). Therefore I believe the CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH
variable is not passed at compilation time to the mt76 driver.
Thanks!
