In case RSI9116 SDIO WiFi operates in STA mode against Intel 9260 in AP mode, the association fails. The former is using wpa_supplicant during association, the later is set up using hostapd: iwl$ cat hostapd.conf interface=wlp1s0 ssid=test country_code=DE hw_mode=g channel=1 wpa=2 wpa_passphrase=test wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK iwl$ hostapd -d hostapd.conf rsi$ wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c <(wpa_passphrase test test) The problem is that the TX EAPOL data descriptor RSI_DESC_REQUIRE_CFM_TO_HOST flag and extended descriptor EAPOL4_CONFIRM frame type are not set in case the AP is iwlwifi, because in that case the TX EAPOL packet is 2 bytes shorter. The downstream vendor driver has this change in place already [1], however there is no explanation for it, neither is there any commit history from which such explanation could be obtained.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
