e519314ee9 Add RoboSwitch driver interface for wpa_supplicant
Find attached the patch that creates a new driver: roboswitch. This
driver adds support for wired authentication with a Broadcom
RoboSwitch chipset. For example it is now possible to do wired
authentication with a Linksys WRT54G router running OpenWRT.

LIMITATIONS
- At the moment the driver does not support the BCM5365 series (though
adding it requires just some register tweaks).
- The driver is also limited to Linux (this is a far more technical
restriction).
- In order to compile against a 2.4 series you need to edit
include/linux/mii.h and change all references to "u16" in "__u16". I
have submitted a patch upstream that will fix this in a future version
of the 2.4 kernel. [These modifications (and more) are now included in
the kernel source and can be found in versions 2.4.37-rc2 and up.]

USAGE
- Usage is similar to the wired driver. Choose the interfacename of
the vlan that contains your desired authentication port on the router.
This name must be formatted as <interface>.<vlan>, which is the
default on all systems I know.

91a0548210 FT: Do not call wpa_ft_prepare_auth_request() if FT is not used
This saves some extra processing for the non-FT case if FT is built in, but
not used for the association.

ec5f180a24 Add an optional set_mode() driver_ops handler for setting mode before keys
A bug just got reported as a result of this for mac80211 drivers.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=459399

The basic problem is that since taking the device down clears the keys
from the driver on many mac80211-based cards, and since the mode gets
set _after_ the keys have been set in the driver, the keys get cleared
on a mode switch and the resulting association is wrong.  The report is
about ad-hoc mode specifically, but this could happen when switching
from adhoc back to managed mode.

565861976d Added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
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.

0b60b0aaad Updated MFP defines based on IEEE 802.11w/D6.0 and use new MFPC/MFPR
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.

1d3c75b3b6 Give adhoc associations a bit more time
Depending on how the driver implements IBSS searching and creation, it
may need to perform one or more scans before successfully completing the
association operation.  Therefore, increase the timeout for IBSS
association operations so that the supplicant doesn't interrupt the
driver as much.

a8e16edc86 Introduced new helper function is_zero_ether_addr()
Use this inline function to replace os_memcmp(addr,
"\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00", ETH_ALEN) == 0.
