wpa_cli can be used now as a client for remote access to ctrl_interface
of wpa_supplicant when UDP and remote options are used.
You can simply run:
wpa_cli -i <hostname>:[port]
wpa_cli -i <IP>:[port]

This function can be used to clean up local UNIX domain socket files
that may be left over from clients that were previously connected to
wpa_supplicant. At least for now, this is only available for Android
builds.
Build options can now be used to replace the location of client
sockets for UNIX domain socket control interface:
CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_CLIENT_DIR=\"/tmp\"
CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_CLIENT_PREFIX=\"wpa_ctrl_\"
This patch adds support for wired IEEE 802.1X client on the Solaris.
I have tested with these:
OS : OpenSolaris 2009.06
EAP : EAP-MD5
Switch : Cisco Catalyst 2950
If the bind() on /tmp/wpa_ctrl_<pid>_<in-proc-counter> fails with
EADDRINUSE, there is an existing socket file with the name we are trying
to create. Since getpid() is unique, there cannot be another process
using that socket and we can just unlink the file and try again. This
can speed up client connection if wpa_cli is killed without allowing it
to clean up the socket file. [Bug 288]
