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.
This was not accurate since this was mostly based on total runtime of an
eapol_test run. The real improvement in the bignum routines is much larger
(mayby twice as fast as before).
CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST=y in .config can now be used to enable all
optimized routines at a cost of about 4 kB. This is small enough increase
in size to justify simplified configuration.
At the cost of about 1 kB of additional binary size, the internal
LibTomMath can be configured to include faster div routine to speed up DH
and RSA. This can be enabled with CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST_DIV=y in
.config.
At the cost of about 0.5 kB of additional binary size, the internal
LibTomMath can be configured to include faster sqr routine to speed up DH
and RSA. This can be enabled with CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST_SQR=y in
.config.
Depending on how the driver implements IBSS searching and creation, it
may need to perform one or more scans before successfully completing the
association operation. Therefore, increase the timeout for IBSS
association operations so that the supplicant doesn't interrupt the
driver as much.
Add a cost of about 2.5 kB of additional cost, the internal LibTomMath can
be configured to include fast exptmod routine to speed up DH and RSA.
This can be enabled with CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST_EXPTMOD=y in
.config.
In situations where the driver does background scanning and sends a
steady stream of scan results, wpa_supplicant would continually
reschedule the scan. This resulted in specific SSID scans never
happening for a hidden AP, and the supplicant never connecting to the AP
because it never got found. Instead, if there's an already scheduled
scan, and a request comes in to reschedule it, and there are enabled
scan_ssid=1 network blocks, let the scan happen anyway so the hidden
SSID has a chance to be found.
The internal TLS implementation can now use both PKCS #1 RSA private key
and PKCS #8 encapsulated RSA private key. PKCS #8 encrypted private key is
not yet supported.
The TLS client changes in ssl3_get_server_hello() were based on the
pre-RFC 5077 version of OpenSSL and they hardcoded s->hit to 1 in case
PAC-Opaque was used. This prevented fallback to full TLS handshake in case
the server rejected PAC-Opaque in ClientHello. The fixed version simplifies
ssl3_get_server_hello() and uses the new RFC 5077 functionality in OpenSSL
(ssl3_check_finished) to allow the state machine handle start of
abbreviated handshake based on the used ticket.
crypto_binding=# in phase1 network parameter can now be used to change the
PEAPv0 cryptobinding behavior (0 = do not use, 1 = optional (default),
2 = required).
Explain that wpa_supplicant supports a variety of drivers, but only a
subset of them are chosen at compile time.

Allow the user to set the IP address of the eapol_test client. This if
very useful when you have a machine with many interfaces and want to use a
particular one for testing RADIUS connectivity. For instance when I run the
national eduroam proxy I can only connect to other server from a particular
address, an our machine happens to have several IPs. So if I want to run
connectivity tests, I must make sure that my test uses a particular
interface. The -A option allows one to set this).
(jm: cleaned up to use radius configuration structure instead of global
variable for the address and added IPv6 support)
Implements the Chargable-User-Identity (CUI), as defined in RFC 4372.
Option "-i" causes the eapol_test to send a NUL CUI - which is a request to
send a CUI back. Capital "-I" allows to specify the value of the CUI.
This has been defined for cases where the client wants to reauthenticate.
It looks like Microsoft implementation does not match with their
specification as far as PRF+ label usage is concerned.. IPMK|CMK is derived
without null termination on the label, but the label for CSK derivation
must be null terminated.
This allows cryptobinding to be used with PEAPv0 in a way that
interoperates with Windows XP SP3 (RC2) and as such, this functionality is
now enabled as an optional addition to PEAPv0.
EAP-PEAP was the only method that used the external eap_tlv.c peer
implementation. This worked fine just for the simple protected result
notification, but extending the TLV support for cryptobinding etc. is not
trivial with such separation. With the TLV processing integrated into
eap_peap.c, all the needed information is now available for using
additional TLVs.
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.

The old version was using struct wpa_sm::bssid which is not necessarily
updated to point to the correct target address when doing over-the-air FT
since the address is used before the association has actually been
completed.
When a WpaMsg item to the QValueList WpaMsgList, there's no constructor
that the QValueList can call. This is a port of the fix from the stable
branch where it builds fine.
Number of TLVs were processed in groups and these cases were now separated
into more flexible processing of one TLV at the time. wpabuf_concat()
function was added to make it easier to concatenate TLVs. EAP Sequences are
now supported in both server and peer code, but the server side is not
enabled by default.
The Debian package checker "lintian" was making noise about
wpa_supplicant.conf(5). It was caused by a line beginning with ', which is
apparently not liked by man(1).
I suggest the use of <emphasis>word</emphasis> where 'word' is used at the
moment.
