config.c includes now only the generic helper functions that are needed
both for hostapd and the AP mode operations in wpa_supplicant.
hostapd/config_file.c is only needed for hostapd.
set_ap_wps_ie() is not used to set WPS IE for both Beacon and Probe
Response frames with a single call. In addition, struct wpabuf is used
instead of separate u8* and length fields. This avoids duplicated
allocation of the IEs and simplifies code in general.
It would be bettet to avoid including driver_i.h, i.e., direct driver
operation calls from hostapd components. This is an initial step in
that direction for WPS IE updates.
This mode allows associated stations to use 4-address frames to allow
layer 2 bridging to be used. At least for the time being, this is only
supported with driver=nl80211.
This WPA_TRACE=y additions allows components to register active references
to memory that has been provided to them as a pointer. If such an actively
referenced memory area is freed, tracer will report this as an error and
backtraces of both the invalid free and the location where this pointer
was marked referenced are shown.
This adds config_methods configuration option for wpa_supplicant
following the design used in hostapd. In addition, the string is
now parsed in common code from src/wps/wps_common.c and the list
of configurable methods include all the defined methods from
WPS 1.0h spec.
Since an Enrollee that does not advertise display as one of the
Config Methods is unlikely to be able to show the ASCII passphrase
to the user, prefer PSK format with such an Enrollee to reduce key
derivation time. This can help with some low-powered devices that
would take long time to derive the PSK from the passphrase.
The use_psk_key parameter can now be used to force the Registrar to
use PSK format instead of ASCII passphrase when building a Credential
for the Enrollee. For now, this is not enabled, but it could be enabled
either based on external (to WPS) configuration or automatically set
based on some WPS attribute values from the Enrollee.
Instead of dropping the configured PSK and deriving it based on
passphrase, use the provided PSK as-is and also maintain a copy of
the passphrase since it can be of use later. This allows both values
to be configured without havign to derive the PSK every time the
network is initialized.
