driver_nl80211.c is based on driver_wext.c and it is still using Linux
wireless extensions for many functions. Over time, the new driver interface
code should be modified to use nl80211/cfg80211 for everything.
Don't cast pointers to int in definitions of PRISM2_HOSTAPD_RID_HDR_LEN
and PRISM2_HOSTAPD_GENERIC_ELEMENT_HDR_LEN. Use size_t instead. That's
actually what the code needs.
Since mac80211 requires that the device be !IFF_UP to change the mode
(and I think the old prism54 fullmac driver does too), do that. This
shouldn't harm fullmac devices since they can handle mode switches on
the fly and usually don't care about up/down that much.
mac80211 sends _both_ channel and frequency in it's scan results, with
frequency first and channel second (it's since been fixed to send
channel first and frequency second to work around this issue). This
results in wpa_supplicant getting the right value when the frequency
comes, but overwriting the value with '0' when the channel comes because
wpa_supplicant can't handle 5GHz channel numbers. So if a valid
previous SIOCGIWFREQ event came in, don't try to overwrite it.
This adds support for PS3 wireless to wpa_supplicant.
Although PS3 wireless driver is designed to conform the WEXT standard
as much as possible, unfortunately the wext driver wrapper of
wpa_supplicant can not support PS3 wireless fully because:
- PS3 wireless driver uses private WEXT ioctls for accepting PSK of
WPA-Personal from the userland.
WEXT does not specify the way to do it.
- The association and 4-way handshake are done by PS3 virtual
wireless device. The guest OSes can not interfere it.
- No EAPOL frames are allowed to go outside of the
hypervisor/firmware nor come from. They are eaten by the firmware.
Thus I needed to make a new driver wrapper for PS3 wireless.
This patch can be applied against the latest 0.6.x tree.

These are expected in most cases and there is no need to confuse users
with the messages in stderr (perror was used here). These are now only
shown in debug output and EOPNOTSUPP errors are silently ignored.
