It all boils down to your interpretation of the word "supported". NKEs
are supported by DTS. We regularly answer questions from NKE
developers. However, there is no release-to-release binary
compatibility guarantee, which is very unusual for a supported API.
I think it's indeed a difference in the interpretation of "supported".
I understand "supported" as the headers are public and do not include
__APPLE_API_PRIVATE or __APPLE_API_OBSOLETE.
To sum-up my POV:
- Aiport80211.h is unsupported.
- NKEMgr.h is supported.
