The new "bss_load_update_period" parameter can be used to configure
hostapd to advertise its BSS Load element in Beacon and Probe Response
frames. This parameter is in the units of BUs (Beacon Units).
When enabled, the STA Count and the Channel Utilization value will be
updated periodically in the BSS Load element. The AAC is set to 0 sinze
explicit admission control is not supported. Channel Utilization is
calculated based on the channel survey information from the driver and
as such, requires a driver that supports providing that information for
the current operating channel.

The driver-based SME case did not set STA flags properly to the kernel
in the way that hostapd-SME did in ieee802_11.c. This resulted in the FT
protocol case not marking the STA entry authorized. Fix that by handling
the special WLAN_AUTH_FT case in hostapd_notif_assoc() and also add the
forgotten hostapd_set_sta_flags() call to synchronize these flag to the
driver.

While hostapd should not really receive the EVENT_ASSOC message for
IBSS, driver_nl80211.c could potentially generate that if something
external forces the interface into IBSS mode and the IBSS case does not
provide the struct assoc_info data. Avoid the potential NULL pointer
dereference by explicitly verifying for the event data to be present.

Extend the minimal HT 20/40 co-ex support to include dynamic changes
during the lifetime of the BSS. If any STA connects to a 2.4 GHz AP with
40 MHz intolerant bit set then the AP will switch to 20 MHz operating
mode.
If for a period of time specified by OBSS delay factor and OBSS scan
interval AP does not have any information about 40 MHz intolerant STAs,
the BSS is switched from HT20 to HT40 mode.

At least in nl80211, broadcast management frames like Probe Request
frames, may be processed multiple times per BSS if multi-BSS is active
and NL80211_CMD_FRAME event is used to deliver them. In the case of
Probe Request frames, hostapd will create multiple redundant Probe
Response frames which are problematic when many BSS are on one channel.
This problem is caused by driver_nl80211 generating an event for
wpa_supplicant_event() for each BSS, and hostapd_mgmt_rx() calls
ieee802_11_mgmt() for each BSS, too.
Fix this by processing broadcast events only for the BSS the driver
intended to. The behavior is not changed for drivers not setting a BSS.

This driver event was used separately for some Action frames, but all
the driver wrappers converted to this from information that would have
been enough to indicate an EVENT_RX_MGMT event. In addition, the
received event was then converted back to a full IEEE 802.11 management
frame for processing in most cases. This is unnecessary complexity, so
get rid of the extra path and use EVENT_RX_MGMT for Action frames as
well as other management frame subtypes.

Commit 88b32a99d3 added support for using
some Action frame processing in hostapd for drivers that handle most of
SME/MLME internally (it added FT, this has since be extended for SA
Query and WNM). However, this was added in a way that ended up getting
both the hostapd_rx_action() and hostapd_action_rx() called for Action
frames. This could result in an attempt to process FT, SA Query, and WNM
Action frames twice.
There is need for more significant cleanup in Action frame processing in
hostapd depending on the driver type, but as a simple step to avoid
issues, skip the hostapd_action_rx() call if hostapd_rx_action()
processed the frame.

Action frame RX report through EVENT_RX_ACTION did not indicate whether
the frame was protected or not even though that information is available
in mlme_event_mgmt(). hostapd_rx_action() has a workaround for setting
the protected flag for SA Query frames, but that did not apply for other
frames, like FT Action. This broke FT-over-DS when PMF is enabled with
newer kernel versions (i.e., the ones that do not use monitor interface
for receiving management frames).

We were not filtering the EVENT_CHANNEL_LIST_CHANGED events based on the
regulatory hint initiator. So wait for EVENT_CHANNEL_LIST_CHANGED event
after our own change was triggered even when regulatory hint initiator
was the driver. This could result in the wait for the channel list to be
updated to be terminated before the real change has occurred and as
such, old channel list remaining in use when configuring
hostapd/wpa_supplicant country parameter. Fix this by filtering the
hints according to the initiator and only regulatory hints initiated by

If hostapd is requested to set the country code and the previous country
code differs from the new one, the channel list information from the
driver may change. This change may not be instant, so wait for an
EVENT_CHANNEL_LIST_CHANGED event before continuing interface setup with
fetching of the channel list information. This fixes issues where the

There was an issue with EAPOL frame exchanges in a multi-BSS
configuration when a station switches between the BSSes controlled by
the same hostapd process. When processing the EAPOL packet, the array of
virtual APs (iface->bss) is searched looking for the station that sent
the packet in order to identify which signal context should be used
during processing. The first match of the station in its list gets used
in the ieee802_1x_receive() function. However, even after a station has
disassociated, it remains in the list of stations pending an inactivity
timeout. This leads to the wrong hapd context (one where the station had
already disassociated) being used in some cases (if the current/active
bss entry appears in the list after one where the station has just
disassociated from) for EAPOL processing.
Fix this by checking the WLAN_STA_ASSOC flag before assuming the right
hapd context was found for the given station.

The signal strength is currently never used as the only driver reporting
it is nl80211 which uses IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_DB_ANTSIGNAL which is never
populated by the kernel. The kernel will (soon) populate
IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_DBM_ANTSIGNAL instead though, so use that.
Also, since it was never really populated, we can redefine the signal
field to be in dBm units only.
My next patch will also require knowing the signal strength of probe
requests throughout the code (where available), so add it to the
necessary APIs.
