Setting a long off channel wait time for P2P Action frames when
we know we are already on the right channel may cause a delay in
sending the Action frame (because the driver may not be able to
satisfy the request for long wait time until previous off channel
requests are over). This may be crucial for P2P response frames
that must be sent within 100 milliseconds of receiving the request.
Fix this by adjusting P2P Action frame wait times as follows:
1. For GO Negotiation Response frame, shorten the wait time to 100 ms.
This is reasonable because the peer has just sent us the GO
Negotiation Request frame, so it is known to be on the right
channel and is probably ready to send us the GO Negotiation
Confirmation frame without delay.
2. For GO Negotiation Confirmation, P2P Invitation Response, and
Provision Discovery Response frames, there is no need for wait
time at all as this is the last frame in the exchange. So set
the wait time to 50 ms to ensure there is enough time to send the
frame.

Commit ac330cfd87 ('P2P: Reinvite with
social operation channel if no common channels') introduced a mechamisn
to reinvite a peer during a persistent group reinvocation from a GO with
a different operating channel proposal. This mechanism can fail if the
inviting device (GO) ends up getting a retransmitted, duplicated
Invitation Response frame processed second time while waiting for the
response to the retried Invitation Request (using one of the social
channels as the operating channel). IEEE 802.11 duplicate frame
detection mechanisms are supposed to prevent this type of sequence, but
not all drivers support those rules properly for pre-association frames,
including P2P Public Action frames.
Work around this issue by checking that the dialog token in the
Invitation Response frame matches the one from the last Invitation
Request if the special invitation retry mechanism is used. This is safer
to do now than to enable dialog token matching for all invitation cases.

If invitation to reinvoke a persistent group from the GO fails with the
peer indicating that there are no common channels, there is no defined
means for the peer to indicate which channel could have worked. Since
this type of issue with available channels changing over time can
happen, try to work around this by retrying invitation using one of the
social channels as the operating channel unless a specific operating
channel was forced for the group.

If the peer device has already acknowledge receipt of the Invitation
Request frame, it is better not to re-start invitation by sending
another Invitation Request. This should not be needed since the peer
already has received the Invitation Request frame and sending the second
round in this type of sequence can cause issues with nl80211 offloaded
offchannel TX operations since driver_nl80211.c will lose the cookie
value for the first pending Action frame and may not be able to cancel
offchannel wait for it properly. this has been seen to trigger a failure
in the p2p_go_invite_auth test case with the scan failing due to GO
sending out Probe Response frame on incorrect channel (the channel used
in that not-cancelled Action TX).

During persistent group re-invocation, GO may end up using a different
channel as the operation channel compared to what was indicated in the
invitation frames. This may break the connection if the peer device ends

operating channel instead of the channel that was provided in the

For various P2P use cases, it is useful to have more accurate timestamp

Make Invitation process for re-invoking a persistent group behave
similarly to GO Negotiation as far as channel negotiation is concerned.
The Operating Channel value (if present) is used as a starting point if
the local device does not have a forced operating channel (e.g., due to
concurrent use). Channel lists from devices are then compared to check
that the selected channel is in the intersection. If not, channel is
selected based on GO Negotiation channel rules (best channel preferences
etc.). Invitation Request is rejected if no common channel can be
selected.

The group matching should be done by comparing the P2P Interface Address
(which the group_bssid here is) to the group's BSSID and not the group
ID (which uses P2P Device Address and would have also needed the SSID).
Though, it should be noted that this case cannot really happen since a
GO in an active group would never be invited to join another group in
its GO role (i.e., if it receives an Invitation Request, it will reply
in P2P Device role). As such, this fix does not really change any
observable behavior, but anyway, it is good to keep the implementation
here consistent with the Invitation Request case.

If Listen state was in progress on another channel when a request to
send an Action frame (e.g., Provision Discovery Request or Invitation
Request to a peer on the peer's Listen channel that is different from
our Listenc hannel) is issued, wpa_supplicant tried to use concurrent
remain-on-channel operations. While some drivers can handle this
cleanly, there are drivers that don't and wpa_supplicant is not expected
to request concurrent remain-on-channel operations.
Fix this by cancelling the ongoing remain-on-channel with stop_listen
prior to sending the Action frame on another channel. If a P2P search
was in progress, it will be continued after the timeout on the new
operation.
