First question asked Welcome!

I am interested in using wifi easy connect/Device Provisioning Protocol, but the brcmfmac driver that is in upstream Linux kernel does not seem to have support for it.

 

I see in the linux-wireless mailing list archive that you did do one attempt to send in a patch for it back in December 2020.

But that one was rejected because your patch did not apply cleanly to latest Linux tree: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/20201209072159.354AAC433ED@smtp.codeaurora.org/

I do not see a second attempt.

What is the reason for this?

And is it only the kernel were the support is still missing, or is there also still work on the firmware side to be done before easy connect is in an usable state?
