(e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of using hostapd as
the source of the regulatory information (i.e., information from CRDA is
now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz channels to be used with hostapd
(if allowed in the current regulatory domain).
Updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
needed with that version anymore).
Added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against TKIP
deficiencies. This can be set either by the Authenticator (to initiate
periodic 4-way handshake to rekey PTK) or by the Supplicant (to request
Authenticator to rekey PTK).
With both wpa_ptk_rekey and wpa_group_rekey (in hostapd) set to 600, TKIP
keys will not be used for more than 10 minutes which may make some attacks
against TKIP more difficult to implement.
We need to cancel the group key update for a STA if a reauthentication
request is received while the STA is in pending group key update. When
canceling the update, we will also need to make sure that the PTK Group Key
state machine ends up in the correct state (IDLE) to allow future updates
in case of WPA2.
Changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string.
Previous version could have allowed a broken client to complete WPA (or
WPA2) authentication even if the selected proto was not enabled in hostapd
configuration.
eap_fast_prov config parameter can now be used to enable/disable different
EAP-FAST provisioning modes:
0 = provisioning disabled
1 = only anonymous provisioning allowed
2 = only authenticated provisioning allowed
3 = both provisioning modes allowed
A recent kernel change led to all EAPOL frames being encrypted rather than
just those for the group handshake. This is due to transmit processing in
the kernel now using the proper interface which would encrypt those frames
with the group key because hostapd wasn't requesting that they not be
encrypted. This changes the nl80211 driver to not request encryption unless
the EAPOL frame should be encrypted.

IEEE 802.11w/D6.0 defines new AKMPs to indicate SHA256-based algorithms for
key derivation (and AES-CMAC for EAPOL-Key MIC). Add support for using new
AKMPs and clean up AKMP processing with helper functions in defs.h.
Move the use of 802.11 header protocol field into driver_hostap.c since
this is a Host AP driver specific mechanism and other driver wrappers
should not really need to know about it.
This updates management frame protection to use the assocition ping process
from the latest draft (D6.0) to protect against unauthenticated
authenticate or (re)associate frames dropping association.
This adds most of the new frame format and identifier definitions from IEEE
802.11w/D6.0. In addition, the RSN IE capability field values for MFP is
replaced with the new two-bit version with MFPC (capable) and MFPR
(required) processing.
This allows the accept_mac_file to be used as an alternative for RADIUS
server-based configuration. This is mainly to ease VLAN testing (i.e., no
need to set up RADIUS server for this anymore).
When the TLS handshake had been completed earlier by the server in case of
abbreviated handshake, the output buffer length was left uninitialized. It
must be initialized to zero in this case. This code is used by EAP-FAST
server and the uninitialized length could have caused it to try to send a
very large frame (though, this would be terminated by the 50 roundtrip EAP
limit). This broke EAP-FAST server code in some cases when PAC was used to
establish the tunnel.
The configuration data should only store the static configuration data and
not dynamic data. In addition, storing HT configuration and state in IEs is
not the easiest way of doing this, so use more convenient data types for
storing configuration and dynamic state. The HT IEs are then generated
based on the static configuration and dynamic state whenever needed.
This commit brings in cleaned up version of IEEE 802.11n implementation
from Intel (1). The Intel tarball includes number of other changes, too,
and only the changes specific to IEEE 802.11n are brought in here. In
addition, this does not include all the changes (e.g., some of the
configuration parameters are still missing and driver wrapper changes for
mac80211 were not included).

This new cfg80211 command is used for setting CTS protect, short preamble,
and short slot time parameters for the BSS. The matching kernel change has
been submitted, but is not yet included in wireless-testing. The code here
used #ifdef to avoid compilation failures before the new command is
available.
Added code to use suggested nl80211/cfg80211 API for setting MFP related
parameters. This is disabled by default since the API changes has not yet
been approved. The new commands can be enabled by defining
NL80211_MFP_PENDING (this will be removed once the API changes is
approved).
