Hey kchsieh,
Sorry about that. I didn't realize that other PR was already open. Let's
continue there instead. I had some questions about the origin of your
orig tarball and the version string you picked, but those are already
addressed in the other PR.
Again, sorry for the duplicate work.

Title:
New upstream 2.11 release for Wi-Fi 7 support
Status in wpa package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
[Impact]
To support the Wi-Fi 7 features, we need to upgrade wpa_supplicant to 2.11, the latest upstream stable release.
[Test case]
The upgrade version should not break legacy Wi-Fi functions, we should test on all Wi-Fi chips as many as possible.
[Where problem could occur]
This is a new stable release which is required by Wi-Fi 7. The risk is high that we might break existing Wi-Fi solutions.
[Additional information]
Upstream has released 2.11 on 2024-07-20 [1].
It provides more features which are required by Wi-Fi 7.
