Which Samsung devices don't support the native fingerprint API?

My guess is pre-marshmallow OS phones don't support the fingerprint API. my question is: (a) Do all / any Samsung phones release anti-virus fingerprint with marshmallow (b) Do any Samsung phones which OS upgrade to marshmallow support the Android fingerprint API?

I read:

Fingerprint reader not detected when using Android 6.0 Fingerprint API on Samsung S5

Samsung Galaxy 4 fingerprint not found

Android FingerPrint API isHardwareDetected returns false for Samsung Note 4

Devices with a fingerprint sensor above 6.0 that do not use the Android Fingerprint SDK

but there are no definitive answers. Also the Samsung website mentions all samsung devices support Pass SDK but does not mention android fingerprint API support.
