The netlink event processing is delayed since they are only returned
after control returns to eloop. This can result in netlink down events
being processed at a point when the interface has is actually still
there (the first event on new interface is down) and that can result in
odd behavior especially when the resulting interface-disabled event is
delivered to AP mode interface with wpa_supplicant.
Work around this by filtering netlink down events if the matching
interface is up at the time the netlink event is processed. This fixes
an issue brought up by commit 36d84860bb.
hostapd_wpa_auth_conf() is called on uninitialized memory and the
conditional blocks in this function may leave some fields into
uninitialized state. This can result in unexpected behavior elsewhere
since some of the variables may be used without matching #ifdef
blocks. Fix this by zeroing the memory.
TPK will be needed to be able to generate FTIE MIC for the
teardown message, so maintain peer data for a bit longer in
case the teardown FTIE request comes back from the driver.
This patch stops any on-going "p2p_find" on creating an Autonomous GO.
This is already taken care in case of invoking a persistent GO. GO as
such will be advertising via the beacons for other devices to discover.
So normally the GO doesn't need to do a p2p_find until and unless it
wants to invite a P2P Client. In case of Invite scenario, logically it
is better to do a explicit discover [via user intervention] after the GO
is created. This patch will help to reduce battery wastage [due to
p2p_find operations] in scenarios where user creates a GO and doesn't
initiate a connection.
These can be useful in tests involving association state mismatch
between the AP and the STA (i.e., STA assumes it is still associated
but the AP does not have association state). In such a case, the AP
would be sending out unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation
frames with reason code 6 or 7 depending on what frame is triggering
this.
The Query Response Length Limit is not allowed to be zero when
this is sent by the AP. Use 0x7F to indicate that the limit is
based on maximum number of GAS fragments.
For P2P, the p2p_connect takes in device address argument to make a
connection. However the connected event AP-STA-CONNECTED comes with
interface address. The application listening on events would find it
difficult to map interface address to the p2p device address which is
provided for connection.
Append P2P Device Address to AP-STA-CONNECTED event for P2P Client
connection. This will help applications to easily map the P2P Interface
Address to P2P Device Address on CONNECTED event. For non-P2P case, it
will just print the usual STA MAC address alone.

Once PBC overlap detected when using dynamic group interfaces, the wpa_s
corresponding to P2P group interface is freed. This patch avoids
accessing the wpa_s data structure after it is freed. This fixes a
possible crash in P2P client role in such a case.
The persistent_reconnect configuration parameter was used to decide
whether to accept invitation to re-establish a persistent group.
However, this was not being advertised in the Group Capability bitmap.

In addition, correct TDLS related documentation in the wpa_driver_ops

This function is actually needed for quite a bit more than just
user space MLME implementation. The old comment here has not been
accurate for a long time, so get rid of it.
These driver_ops functions set_channel, set_ssid, set_bssid,
mlme_add_sta, and mlme_remove_sta were used with the user space
MLME implementation in wpa_supplicant. That was only for testing
purposes and was removed, but these driver_ops were forgotten.
Remove them now to remove confusing driver_ops definitions.
IEEE Std 802.11-2007 7.3.2.2 demands that in order to join a BSS all
required basic rates have to be supported by the hardware.

This avoids allocating global driver state for driver wrappers that
are built in but not used. This can save some resources and avoids
failures with driver_nl80211.c that is now initializing netlink
connections for nl80211 in global_init().
This code was used only with driver_test.c to allow MLME operations
in hostapd to be tested without having to use a real radio. There
are no plans on extending this to any other use than testing and
mac80211_hwsim has now obsoled the need for this type of testing.
As such, we can drop this code from wpa_supplicant to clean up the
implementation of unnecessary complexity.
