In the case of SAE AP, drivers offload authentication to user-space software, e.g. hostapd. For FullMAC drivers the procedure is as follows. If auth_type is SAE and user space indicates external authentication capability, then driver requests authentication offload to user-space software using cfg80211_external_auth_request call. From that point, auth frame exchange is performed transparently for driver: user-space software sends/receives mgmt frames using mgmt_tx/mgmt_frame_register cfg80211 callbacks. As soon as authenitcation is completed, user-space software notifies driver about its status using external_auth cfg80211 callback.
