Three Ways to Fake Wi-Fi, One Merged: Zephyr's New hwsim Linux has had mac80211_hwsim for years; Zephyr had nothing like it — you couldn't test the Wi-Fi supplicant without a radio on the bench. Three different fixes landed on the table at once; an RFC and a Wi-Fi telco sorted out which does what, and I built and merged the in-process one: N virtual radios in a single image, running real WPA2 and WPA3 handshakes with zero hardware. Here's the design call, the one problem that makes it hard on Zephyr specifically, and the war story of getting SAE green. -
Wi-Fi Crypto Can't Go Fully PSA: Inside the Mbed TLS 4.x Migration Wi-Fi security can never be fully PSA-compliant — the standards mandate legacy algorithms PSA won't touch. Here's what porting hostap's crypto to Mbed TLS 4.x and PSA actually took: a deleted DH module, dropped curves, deliberate hacks, and a detour through the bootloader — all riding into nRF Connect SDK 3.4.0 LTS. -
Zephyr is not just an RTOS — it is a silicon-to-cloud force multiplier The kernel is a tiny fraction of Zephyr. The real leverage is the ecosystem: networking, security, and vendor-neutral HALs — and how that shapes production IoT. -
The Dotstar verification loop: from pre-silicon to cloud — no shortcuts How we combine agentic AI acceleration, hardware-in-the-loop testing, wireless performance suites, and senior architectural governance for IoT that survives reality — not just the lab.
