disable_dgaf=1 in hostapd.conf can now be used to disable downstream
group-addressed forwarding (DGAF). In this configuration, a unique
GTK (and IGTK) is provided to each STA in the BSS to make sure the
keys do not match and no STA can forge group-addressed frames.
An additional mechanism in the AP needs to be provided to handle some
group-addressed frames, e.g., by converting DHCP packets to unicast
IEEE 802.11 frames regardless of their destination IP address and by
providing Proxy ARP functionality.

The new hostapd ctrl_iface command WPS_NFC_TOKEN can now be used to
manage AP-as-Enrollee operations with NFC password token. WPS/NDEF
parameters to this command can be used to generate a new NFC password
token. enable/disable parameters can be used to enable/disable use of
NFC password token (instead of AP PIN) for external Registrars.
A preconfigured NFS password token can be used by providing its
parameters with new hostapd.conf fields wps_nfc_dev_pw_id,
wps_nfc_dh_pubkey, wps_nfc_dh_privkey, and wps_nfc_dev_pw. This use
will also depend on WPS_NFC_TOKEN enable/disable commands, i.e., the
configured NFS password token is disabled by default.

DAS will now validate Event-Timestamp value to be within an acceptable
time window (300 seconds by default; can be set using
radius_das_time_window parameter). In addition, Event-Timestamp can be
required in Disconnect-Request and CoA-Request messages with
radius_das_require_event_timestamp=1.

This adds the basic DAS mechanism to enable hostapd to be configured
to request dynamic authorization requests (Disconnect-Request and
CoA-Request). This commit does not add actual processing of the
requests, i.e., this will only receive and authenticate the requests
and NAK them regardless of what operation is requested.

The new venue_name configuration parameter can now be used to configure

This adds GAS/ANQP implementation into hostapd. This commit brings in
the basic GAS/ANQP functionality, but only the ANQP Capability List
element is supported.
For testing purposes, hostapd control interface SET command can be used
to set the gas_frag_limit parameter dynamically.

hostapd uses the poll method to check if the station is alive
after the station has been inactive for ap_max_inactivity seconds.
Make the poll mechanism configurable so that user can choose to
disconnect idle clients.
This can be especially useful when some devices/firmwares have
restrictions on the number of clients that can connect to the AP
and that limit is smaller than the total number of stations trying
to use the AP.

This allows per-device PSK to be configured for WPA-Personal using a
RADIUS authentication server. This uses RADIUS-based MAC address ACL
(macaddr_acl=2), i.e., Access-Request uses the MAC address of the
station as the User-Name and User-Password. The WPA passphrase is
returned in Tunnel-Password attribute in Access-Accept. This
functionality can be enabled with the new hostapd.conf parameter,
wpa_psk_radius.

Testing code can now be enabled in the hostapd RADIUS server to dump
each derived MSK into a text file (e.g., to be used as an input to
wlantest). This functionality is not included in the default build
and can be enabled by adding the following line to hostapd/.config:
CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_RADIUS_TEST
The MSK dump file is specified with dump_msk_file parameter in
hostapd.conf (path to the dump file). If this variable is not set,
MSK dump mechanism is not enabled at run time.

A new hostapd.conf parameter, wps_rf_bands, can now be used to fix the
RF Bands value in cases where hw_mode is not set or when operating a
dual band dual concurrent AP.

This cleans up the code a bit by not having to deal with theoretical
possibility of maximum number of EAP methods to be different between
various components in hostapd.
Signed-hostap: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>
This was included in the AP configuration parameters, but there has
been no way to set it to anything else than the default automatic
mode. Remove this parameter and just hardcode ERP determination to
follow the automatic mode.
A new hostapd configuration parameter, disable_pmksa_caching=1, can now
be used to disable PMKSA caching on the Authenticator. This forces the
stations to complete EAP authentication on every association when WPA2
is being used.
Windows 7 uses incorrect way of figuring out AP's WPS capabilities by
acting as a Registrar and using M1 from the AP. The config methods
attribute in that message is supposed to indicate only the configuration
method supported by the AP in Enrollee role, i.e., to add an external
Registrar. For that case, PBC shall not be used and as such, the
PushButton config method is removed from M1 by default. If pbc_in_m1=1
is included in the configuration file, the PushButton config method is
left in M1 (if included in config_methods parameter) to allow Windows 7
to use PBC instead of PIN (e.g., from a label in the AP).
This adds the ability to add WPS vendor extensions to an AP (or GO).
They will be added to the WSC IE(s) in Beacon and Probe Response frames.

In multi BSS setups it wasn't possible to set up an HT BSS in
conjunction with a WEP/TKIP BSS. HT needed to be turned off entirely
to allow WEP/TKIP BSSes to be used.
In order to allow HT BSSes to coexist with non-HT WEP/TKIP BSSes add a
new BSS conf attribute "disable_11n" which disables HT capabilities on a
single BSS by suppressing HT IEs in the beacon and probe response
frames. Furthermore, mark all STAs associated to a WEP/TKIP BSS as
non-HT STAs. The disable_11n parameter is used internally; no new entry
is parsed from hostapd.conf.
This allows a non-HT WEP/TKIP BSS to coexist with a HT BSS without
having to disable HT mode entirely. Nevertheless, all STAs associated to
the WEP/TKIP BSS will only be served as if they were non-HT STAs.

If WMM is not disabled explicitly (wmm_enabled=0 in hostapd.conf),
enable WMM automatically whenever HT (ieee80211n) is enabled. Use
the default WMM parameters for AP TX queues and the EDCA parameters
advertised for stations in WMM IE if no overriding values are
included in the configuration.
tdls_prohibit=1 and tdls_prohibit_chan_switch=1 and now be used to
disable use of TDLS or TDLS channel switching in the BSS using
extended cabilities IE as defined in IEEE 802.11z.
The nl80211 driver can report low ACK condition (in fact it reports
complete loss right now only). Use that, along with a config option, to
disconnect stations when the data connection is not working properly,
e.g., due to the STA having went outside the range of the AP. This is
disabled by default and can be enabled with disassoc_low_ack=1 in
hostapd or wpa_supplicant configuration file.

These are not used by any driver wrapper, i.e., only the four
data queues (BK, BE, VI, VO) are configurable. Better remove these
so that there is no confusion about being able to configure
something additional.
hostapd does not implement UAPSD functionality. However, if U-APSD
functionality is implemented outside hostapd, add support to advertise
the functionality in beacon.

Doxygen and some build tools may get a bit confused about same file
name being used in different directories. Clean this up a bit by
renaming some of the duplicated file names in src/ap.
