When noise floor measurements are not available, compute SNR
using default values for the noise floor. This helps steer us
towards 5 GHz BSSes in high signal strength environments.
In more detail...
Existing code prefers a 5 GHz BSS when the 5 GHz BSS's signal
strength is "close" to that of the 2.4 GHz BSS, or when both SNRs
are large. However, the mwifiex driver does not provide noise
floor measurements, so we can't compute SNRs.
Because mwifiex doesn't provide NF measurements, the "large SNR"
code wasn't effective. By using default values for the noise floor,
we can again compute SNRs, and decide that the SNR is high enough
that we shouldn't worry about the exact difference in SNR.
The default noise floor values (one for 2.4 GHz, and one for 5 GHz)
were chosen by measurement in a noisy environment, so they should be
conservative.
Note that while this patch is motivated by mwifiex, it affects
ath9k as well. Although ath9k provides noise floor measurements
in general, it will sometimes fail to provide a measurement for
one or more specific channels.
As a result of this patch, we'll always compare BSSes based on SNR
(either measured or estimated), rather than sometimes comparing
based on signal strength. ("Always" assumes that the
WPA_SCAN_LEVEL_DBM flag is set. It is for mwifiex and ath9k.)
While there:
- fix a whitespace issue (spaces -> tab)
- clean up existing comments
- update dump_scan_res to indicate whether the noise floor is
measured, or default

For wired IEEE 802.1X authentication, phase1="allow_canned_success=1"
can now be used to configure a mode that allows EAP-Success (and
EAP-Failure) without going through authentication step. Some switches
use such sequence when forcing the port to be authorized/unauthorized or
as a fallback option if the authentication server is unreachable. By
default, wpa_supplicant discards such frames to protect against
potential attacks by rogue devices, but this option can be used to
disable that protection for cases where the server/authenticator does
not need to be authenticated.
When enabled, this mode allows EAP-Success/EAP-Failure as an immediate
response to EAPOL-Start (or even without EAPOL-Start) and EAP-Success is
also allowed immediately after EAP-Identity exchange (fallback case for
authenticator not being able to connect to authentication server).

wpa_supplicant used to request user to re-enter username/password if the
server indicated that EAP-MSCHAPv2 (e.g., in PEAP Phase 2)
authentication failed (E=691), but retry is allowed (R=1). This is a
reasonable default behavior, but there may be cases where it is more
convenient to close the authentication session immediately rather than
wait for user to do something.
Add a new "mschapv2_retry=0" option to the phase2 field to allow the
retry behavior to be disabled. This will make wpa_supplicant abort
authentication attempt on E=691 regardless of whether the server allows
retry.

Linux kernel commit 576eb62598f10c8c7fd75703fe89010cdcfff596 ('bridge:
respect RFC2863 operational state') from 2012 introduced a regression
for using wpa_supplicant with EAPOL frames and a station interface in a
bridge. Since it does not look like this regression is going to get
fixed any time soon (it is already two years from that commit and over
1.5 from a discussion pointing out the regression), add a workaround in
wpa_supplicant to avoid this issue.
The wpa_supplicant workaround uses a secondary packet socket to capture
all frames (ETH_P_ALL) from the netdev that is in a bridge. This is
needed to avoid the kernel regression. However, this comes at the price
of more CPU load. Some of this is avoided with use of Linux socket
filter, but still, this is less efficient than a packet socket bound to
the specific EAPOL ethertype. The workaround gets disabled
automatically, if the main packet socket interface on the bridge
interface turns out to be working for RX (e.g., due to an old kernel
version being used or a new kernel version having a fix for the
regression). In addition, this workaround is only taken into use for the
special case of running wpa_supplicant with an interface in a bridge.

Currently, there is a race in open mesh networks where mesh STA A
receives a beacon from B and sends a peering open frame to initiate
peering. STA B, having not yet received a beacon from A and thus
created the corresponding station entry, will ignore all such open
frames. If the beacon interval is sufficiently long then peering
will not succeed as a result.
In fact B can simply create the station entry when the popen is
received, as is done in Linux's in-kernel MPM, avoiding the issue.

Previously, we would only free the station entry if a peering close
frame was received (freeing the station entry causes the kernel to
start sending peer candidate events again when suitable beacons are
received, triggering peering or authentication to restart).
The end result is the same in any case regardless of close reason:
if we leave holding state then peering has started again, so go
ahead and remove the station in all cases.

Connection with a PMF enabled AP will fail if we try to negotiate PMF
while the local driver does not support this. Since pmf=1 does not

it somewhat easier to allow upper layer programs to use pmf=1 default

This restores some of the pre-radio work behavior for scanning by
retrying scan trigger if the driver rejects it (most likely returning
EBUSY in case of nl80211-drivers). Retry is indicated in the
CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED event with "retry=1".
For manual scans (e.g., triggered through "SCAN" control interface

did not cover the Hotspot 2.0 ANQP elements. Extend this mechanism to

It was possible for interworking_find_network_match() to find a possible
BSS match in a case where more thorough checks in
wpa_supplicant_select_bss() reject network. This itself is fine, in
general, but when combined with wpa_supplicant_fast_associate()
optimization and auto_interworking=1, this resulted in a busy loop of up
to five seconds and a possible stack overflow due to recursion in that
loop.
Fix this by limiting the Interworking wpa_supplicant_fast_associate()
call to be used only once per scan iteration, so that new scan
operations can be completed before going through the scan results again.

Reduce maximum stack use by starting next ANQP fetch operation from an

For Interworking connection to work, the SSID of the selected BSS needs
to be known to be able to associate with the AP. It was possible for the
scan results to include two BSS entries matching the BSSID when an
earlier scan with that AP has shown a hidden SSID configuration (e.g.,
when running hwsim test cases, but at least in theory, this could happen
with real use cases as well). When that happened, the incorrect BSS
entry may not have included RSN configuration and as such, it would get
rejected for Interworking connection.
Fix this by confirming that the selected BSS entry has a real SSID. If
not, try to find another BSS entry matching the same BSSID and use that,
if found with an SSID.
