Dmitry reported that the kernel could no longer parse the
scheduled scan attributes correctly after my patch to use
nla_nest_start/nla_nest_end. The reason is that the wrong
attribute is closed I accidentally made it close the full
scan config instead of just the SSID match set.

Some extended capabilities (I'm currently interested in "Operating Mode
Notification" for VHT) are implemented by the kernel driver and exported
in nl80211. Use these in hostapd/wpa_supplicant.

Instead of allocating a new message and then moving that into

When the wiphy information is split, there's no guarantee that the
channels are processed before the bitrates; in fact, with the current
kernel it happens the other way around. Therefore, the mode information
isn't set up correctly and there's no 11g mode.
Fix this by doing the 11b/11g determination as part of the
postprocessing.

Add a driver capability flag for drivers which support IBSS mode and set
it for nl80211 drivers which have set the NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC.
Add a new option "modes" to "get_capability" which will return "AP" and
"IBSS" if the corresponding capability flags are set.
The idea is that this can be used for UIs to find out if the driver

For various P2P use cases, it is useful to have more accurate timestamp
for the peer information update. This commit improves scan result
handling by using a single timestamp that is taken immediately after
fetching the results from the driver and then using that value to
calculate the time when the driver last updated the BSS entry. In
addition, more debug information is added for P2P peer updates to be
able to clearly see how old information is being used here.

When AP mode operation reject the client, nl80211 layer advertises the
connect failed event with the reason for failures (for example, max

This patch adds some debug messages whenever such an event is received
from the nl80211 layer and also the same event is posted to the upper

When scan failed, the wpa_driver_nl80211_scan method tried
to recursively call itself, but it passed in the wrong argument
for the void*, and so then it crashed accessing bad memory.
With this fix, hostapd still will not retry the scan later, but
at least it will exit cleanly and won't polute the file system
with core files.

This was previously included only with NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE, but the
information is as useful (if not even more useful) for
NL80211_CMD_CONNECT. It should be noted that cfg80211 does not yet use
this attribute with NL80211_CMD_CONNECT, but that can be added easily.

wpa_driver_nl80211_ap() returned error if set_freq failed, but left the
previously set nlmode to GO/AP. While this should not be issue for most
purposes, it leaves the interface in somewhat unexpected state and could
potentially affect operations prior to next connection attempt. Address
this by restoring the previous nlmode if AP mode cannot be started for
some reason.

cfg80211 caches the scan results according the channel number. Due to
the 15 sec aging this might cause the user mode to see more than one
scan result with the same BSSID, e.g. - one scan result for the
P2P Device and one for the P2P GO (once it's enabled).
Fix this by updating the device entry only if the new peer entry is
newer than the one previously stored.

hostapd can run with different VIF when using nl80211. Events about MIC
failures have to be processed in context of the VIF which received it
and not in context of the primary VIF. Otherwise the station belonging
to this VIF may not be found in the primary VIF station hash and
therefore no countermeasures are started or the countermeasures are
started for the wrong VIF.

Replace CONFIG_IEEE80211V with CONFIG_WNM to get more consistent build
options for WNM-Sleep Mode operations. Previously it was possible to
define CONFIG_IEEE80211V without CONFIG_WNM which would break the build.
In addition, IEEE 802.11v has been merged into IEEE Std 802.11-2012 and
WNM is a better term to use for this new functionality anyway.

Change the nl80211 driver in wpa_supplicant to correctly handle
connecting to a new AP through cfg80211 without SME capability. As
before, the driver will disconnect from the previously associated AP,
but now we attempt to immediately connect to our intended AP. This
prevents us from blacklisting the AP we were trying to connect to
because of a semantic mismatch between cfg80211 and wpa_supplicant. The
disconnect/connect patch generates a local disconnect nl80211 event
which we discard because we're already correctly tracking the pending
association request.
In detail:
cfg80211 does not support connecting to a new BSS while already
connected to another BSS, if the underlying driver doesn't support
separate authenticate and associate commands. wpa_supplicant is written
to expect that this is a supported operation, except for a little error
handling that disconnects from the current BSS when roaming fails and
relies on autoconnect logic to reconnect later. However, this failure to
connect is incorrectly attributed to the new AP we attempted to
associate with, rather than a local condition in cfg80211.
The combined effect of these two conditions is that full-mac drivers
accessible through cfg80211 but without SME capability take a long time
to roam across BSS's because wpa_supplicant will:
1) Fail to associate for local reasons
2) Disconnect and return that the association request failed
3) Blacklist the association target (incorrectly)
4) Do a scan
5) Pick a less desirable AP to associate with
