hostapd needs to remove the old STA entry if it exists when processing
reassociation back to the same AP. This removes the potentially PS
buffered frames and allows association parameters to be updated with
mac80211.
Store a copy of device attributes during WPS protocol run and make it
available for external programs via the control interface STA MIB
command for associated stations. This gives access to device name and
type which can be useful when showing user information about associated
stations.
The group key state machine needs to be re-initialized with possible
updated GTK length when restarting WPA (e.g., when WPS was used to
reconfigure the AP).
This is not really of that much use since rc4_skip() can be used as
easily. In addition, rc4 has caused some symbol conflicts in the past,
so it is easier to live without that as an exported symbol.
This is a (hopefully) temporary workaround to allow the same source code
tree to be used for building hostapd and wpa_supplicant without having
to manually force recompilation of some files. Currently, some of the
driver wrapper files need to be built separately for hostapd and
wpa_supplicant (#ifdef's in the files based on AP functionality).
This is somewhat racy as far as parallel make execution is concerned,
i.e., it may be necessary to run "make -j#" twice (plain "make" works
fine. Since this is supposed to be a temporary workaround, there is not
much point in trying to fix this with any more complex make processing.
Instead of having all driver stuff collected across wpa_supplicant
and hostapd, create a common snippet that they both include and
that handles the build configuration.
Instead of calling specific Probe Request handler functions, use a
generic mechanism that allows multiple callback functions to be
registered for getting notification on receive Probe Request frames.
The driver wrappers should not need to include wps_hostapd.h, so let's
make this easier by introducing a driver callback for reporting Probe
Request frames.
Previously, we would have allowed both the WPA and RSN EAPOL-Key
types to be used regardless of whether the association is using
WPA or RSN/WPA2. This shouldn't result in any significant problems
on the Authenticator side, but anyway, we should check the type and
ignore the EAPOL-Key frames that used unexpected type.
hostapd_cli wps_pin command can now have an optional timeout
parameter that sets the PIN lifetime in seconds. This can be used
to reduce the likelihood of someone else using the PIN should an
active PIN be left in the Registrar.
We could use auto-channel selection here eventually, but for now,
reject the configuration since it is not going to work correctly
(Beacon and Probe Response frames use incorrect value in DS Params).
Port the code from wpa_supplicant to re-use an existing ctrl_iface
socket file if the file does not seem to be in use. This allows
hostapd to recover from unclean shutdown of the control interface.
None of the driver wrappers user this. hostapd-controlled broadcast SSID
hiding can only be used with drivers that use hostapd for handling
Beacon and Probe Request/Response frames.
None of the driver wrappers use this. Only the drivers that use hostapd
for Beacon and Probe Request/Response handling can now use IEEE 802.11d
properly.
This was not really supported by any of the included driver wrappers. If
this functionality is desired in the future, this (or something similar)
can be added with the changes needed into a driver wrapper to use the
mechanism.
This simplifies driver wrapper operations and removes last direct
struct hostapd_data dereferences from driver_nl80211.c. In addition,
some of the TX callbacks are now fixed for secondary BSSes.
