Hi all,
we have done it two years ago as part of my master thesis and it works
like a charm! The SDR IEEE 802.11 implementation can be configured as AP
using hostapd or adhoc via the network manager. We had some problems
making it work as a normal client however.
Our approach has a kernel module that provides an interface for
receiving and sending PDUs from/to SDR PHY. Internally, the kernel
module communicates with the mac80211 for passing around these PDUs.

Has anyone tried integration of gr-ieee 802.11 with Linux stack
(wpa_supplicant)?
I guess no, but since it doesn’t have a standard compliant MAC layer
that might be of limited benefit.
If you really want to look into integrating it in Linux, I would
implement it as virtual WiFi device, similar to hwsim
(https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/mac80211_hwsim).
Then the higher layer stuff like hostap and wpa_supplicant would just
work out of the box.
Best,
Bastian
