[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] mac80211: pass hostapd control socket to mesh-mode supplicant

[Daniel Hernandez]

Hello 

Any clue if these fixes are going to make it into Openwrt / LEDE  18.06 . So I can begin testing. 

Thanks,
Danny

I haven't tested the current state but this was basically breaking encrypted mesh + AP (AP never came up). Problem was the code (OpenWrt specific) in wpa_supplicant which called STOP_AP via this socket.

Kind regards,
