Alexander Wetzel 83b83b461d nl80211: Migrate to current netlink key message format
Linux 2.6.32 (December 2009) introduced alternate netlink messages
for setting and installing keys, deprecating the older ones.

To allow hostapd/wpa_supplicant to use new features only provided via
the new API this patch migrates all netlink messages to the current ones.

Since the nl80211 driver was sometimes already using the new format this
is only unifying the netlink API usage and not changing the minimal
kernel requirement.

The following netlink attributes have been retired for key installs:

  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DATA
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_TYPE
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_SEQ
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_IDX
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_CIPHER
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT_MGMT
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT_TYPES

And replaced by the following attributes nested in NL80211_ATTR_KEY:

  NL80211_KEY_DATA
  NL80211_KEY_TYPE
  NL80211_KEY_SEQ
  NL80211_KEY_IDX
  NL80211_KEY_CIPHER
  NL80211_KEY_DEFAULT
  NL80211_KEY_DEFAULT_MGMT
  NL80211_KEY_DEFAULT_TYPES

When getting Michael MIC failure notifications or querying a key
sequence number the kernel continues to use the old attributes:
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_TYPE
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_SEQ
  NL80211_ATTR_KEY_IDX

This package may include either wpa_supplicant, hostapd, or both. See
README file respective subdirectories (wpa_supplicant/README or
hostapd/README) for more details.

Source code files were moved around in v0.6.x releases and compared to
earlier releases, the programs are now built by first going to a
subdirectory (wpa_supplicant or hostapd) and creating build
configuration (.config) and running 'make' there (for Linux/BSD/cygwin
builds).
