mkresin:

So, you change --disable-pkcs11 to --enable-pkcs11 and the build fails. To be honest, I'm not surprised. pcks11 is most likely disabled for a reason and more changes are required to get it working.

It's nothing I would call a bug. It should be either a Feature Request to enable pkcs11 by default/create a build variant with pkcs11 enabled. But such a Feature Request should explain why pkcs11 support is required.

You might want to ask for help in the forum to get pkcs11 working and send a patch afterwards.

Hello Mathias, thanks for adressing this... feature request.
I believe that IOT / embedded support for security hardware tokens should be fully implemented. It opens quite a lot of possibilities.
For example premises access control with smart card, etc.
Could you kindly point me the right forum section where I can seek help with this?
Regards,
Francesco

Feel free to add a new task here and set the type to feature request.

But don't expect to much. I haven't seen anyone to have a look at the feature requests or implement requested stuff. As you most likely know, OpenWrt is a community project and depends on contributions. The best would be if you implement the feature on your own and provide a patch for inclusion.

support for security hardware tokens should be fully implemented

Ah, here we have the reason for the required pkcs11 support. No idea how it really works, but you should always mention what you are trying to archieve.

Thank you very much Mathias.
Hope the community will see the potential and produce some output!
