wpa_supplicant can now initialize hostapd data structures when mode=2 is
used to set up an AP. The hostapd configuration is not yet set based on
wpa_supplicant network configuration block. In addition, the glue code
for hostapd driver_ops needs number of functions that will be needed for
AP functionality.
Move the shared IEEE 802.11w enum definition into src/common/defs.h to
avoid redefinition when both configuration structures are included into
the same file.
This version is adding the configuration option (mode=2) for this and
driver capability reporting to figure out whether AP mode can be used.
However, this does not actually implement any real functionality yet.
All these driver handlers can be implemented in associate() handler
which gets all the needed information in the parameters structure. The
old functions that provided only a single parameter will be removed
eventually to clean up the driver_ops structure, so driver wrappers
should start using the newer mechanism.
Removing just sun_family is not portable since some systems (e.g.,
FreeBSD) include an additional sun_len field. Using offsetof should be
portable. In addition, set sun_ken for FreeBSD.
This can be used, e.g., with mac80211-based Linux drivers with
nl80211. This allows over-the-air FT protocol to be used (IEEE
802.11r).
Since the nl80211 interface needed for this is very recent (added
today into wireless-testing.git), driver_nl80211.c has backwards
compatibility code that uses WEXT for association if the kernel does
not support the new commands. This compatibility code can be
disabled by defining NO_WEXT_COMPAT. That code will also be removed
at some point to clean up driver_nl80211.c.
This adds first part of FT resource request as part of Reassocition
Request frame (i.e., FT Protocol, not FT Resource Request Protocol).
wpa_supplicant can generate a test resource request when driver_test.c
is used with internal MLME code and hostapd can verify the FTIE MIC
properly with the included RIC Request.
The actual RIC Request IEs are not processed yet and hostapd does not
yet reply with RIC Response (nor would wpa_supplicant be able to
validate the FTIE MIC for a frame with RIC Response).
This is done with wired interfaces to fix IEEE 802.1X authentication
when the authenticator uses the group address (which should be happening
with wired Ethernet authentication).
This allows wpa_supplicant to complete wired authentication successfully
on Vista with a NDIS 6 driver, but the change is likely needed for
Windows XP, too.
Do not use just the driver name for this since driver_ndis.c supports
both wired and wireless NDIS drivers and needs to indicate the driver
type after initialization.
Calculate the estimated medium time using integer variables since there
is no real need to use floating point arithmetics here. In addition,
make sure there is no division by zero regardless of how invalid the
request from the station is. Reject invalid parameters and refuse
requests that would take most of the bandwidth by themselves.
Add test code into wpa_supplicant mlme.c to allow WMM-AC negotiation to
be tested with driver_test.
The new file wps_nfc.c and ndef.c implements NFC device independent
operation, wps_nfc_pn531.c implements NFC device dependent operation.
This patch is only for the following use case:
- Enrollee = wpa_supplicant
- Registrar = hostapd internal Registrar
Following NFC methods can be used:
- Enrollee PIN with NFC
- Registrar PIN with NFC
- unencrypted credential with NFC
Encrypted credentials are not supported.
Enrollee side operation:
Registrar side operation:
Example configuration.
CONFIG_WPS=y
CONFIG_WPS_NFC=y
CONFIG_WPS_NFC_PN531=y
I used NFC device "NXP PN531". The NFC device access method is
confidential, so I used outer library. Please download below files from

The hostapd/wpa_supplicant with this patch passed below tests on
"Wi-Fi WPS Test Plan Version 1.6".
4.2.5 Add device using NFC Method with password token
(I used SONY STA instead of NXP STA.)
4.2.6 Add device using NFC Method with configuration token
5.1.9 Add to AP using NFC Method with password token
through internal registrar
(I used SONY AP instead of NXP AP.)
5.1.10 Add to AP using NFC Method with configuration token
through internal registrar
Many deployed APs do not handle negotiation of security parameters well
when both TKIP and CCMP (or both WPA and WPA2) are enabled. The most
common end result seems to be ending up with the least secure option..
As a workaround, check whether the AP advertises WPA2/CCMP in Beacon
frames and add those options for the credential if needed. This allows
the client to select the most secure configuration regardless of how
broken the AP's WPS implementation is as far as auth/encr type
negotiation is concerned.
The old behavior of generating new DH keys can be maintained for non-OOB
cases and only OOB (in this case, with UFD) will use the pre-configured
DH keys to allow the public key hash to be checked.
Not all embedded devices have USB interface and it is useful to be able
to remove unneeded functionality from the binary. In addition, the
current implementation has some UNIX specific calls in it which may make
it not compile cleanly on all target systems.
It seems that WFA WPS spec says that default key index should be 1 (not
0). I think this meas that WEP key indexes region is not from 0 to 3,
but from 1 to 4 in WPS. At least WRT610N implemented it this way.
These flags are used to mark which values (level, noise, qual) are
invalid (not available from the driver) and whether level is using dBm.
D-Bus interface will now only report the values that were available.
If the driver reports support for more than one SSID per scan request,
optimize scan_ssid=1 operations in ap_scan=1 mode. This speeds up
scanning whenever scan_ssid=1 is used since the broadcast SSID can be
included in every scan request and if driver supports more than two
SSIDs in the scan request, the benefits are even larger when multiple
networks have been configured with ap_scan=1.
This is also cleaning up wpa_supplicant_scan() function by moving code
around so that the SSID list is not processed unnecessarily if the
operation mode does not need this.
This can be used to provide support for scanning multiple SSIDs at a
time to optimize scan_ssid=1 operations. In addition, Probe Request IEs
will be available to scan2() (e.g., for WPS PBC scanning).
For example, -Dnl80211,wext could be used to automatically select
between nl80211 and wext. The first driver wrapper that is able to
initialize the interface will be used.
The driver wrappers can now inform wpa_supplicant how many SSIDs can
be used in a single scan request (i.e., send multiple Probe Requests
per channel). This value is not yet used, but it can eventually be used
to allow a new scan command to specify multiple SSIDs to speed up
scan_ssid=1 operations. In addition, a warning could be printed if
scan_ssid=1 is used with a driver that does not support it
(max_scan_ssids=0).
Split the auth=none option into three: open, WEP, WEP with shared key to
allow the user specify WEP with shared key authentication. In addition,
fix static WEP key edits to be enabled only when using static WEP keys
(i.e., not for IEEE 802.1X).
