This can be used to configure wpa_supplicant to ignore old scan results
from the driver cache in cases where such results were not updated after
the scan trigger from wpa_supplicant. This can be useful in some cases
where the driver may cache information for a significant time and the AP
configuration is changing. Many such cases are for testing scripts, but
this could potentially be useful for some WPS use cases, too.

p2p_ignore_shared_freq=1 in the configuration file (or "SET
p2p_ignore_shared_freq 1" on control interface) can now be used to
configure wpa_supplicant to ignore the preference on shared operating
channel when the driver support multi-channel concurrency. The default
behavior is to try to start any new P2P group on an operating channel
that is already in use on another virtual interface to avoid extra cost
from hopping between multiple channels. If this new parameter is set to
1, such preference is not used and instead, the channel for the new P2P
group is selected based on other preferences while ignoring operating
channels of any concurrent connection.

beacon_int (in TU) can now be used to configure Beacon interval for AP
mode operations (including P2P GO) in wpa_supplicant. This can be set
either in a network block or as a global parameter in the configuration
file (or with "SET beacon_int <value>" control interface command) to
apply for all networks that do not include the beacon_int parameter to
override the default.
In addition, this commits extends the dtim_period parameter to be
available as a global parameter to set the default value. dtim_period is
now stored in the configuration file, too, if it was set.

By default, P2P is enabled globally for all virtual interfaces and this
makes wpa_supplicant include WSC and P2P IEs in Probe Request frames for
all scans even if this is for a non-P2P station connection to speed up
device discovery. If an interface is dedicated for non-P2P station mode
operations, it is now possible to disable addition of WSC and P2P IEs
into Probe Request frames with a per-interface p2p_disabled parameter.
This can be set either in the configuration file (p2p_disabled=1) or at
run time ("wpa_cli -i wlan0 set p2p_disabled 1"). Unlike the previous
mechanism ("wpa_cli p2p_set disabled 1"), the new parameter changes the
behavior only for the specified interface while other interfaces
continue to follow the global P2P enabled/disabled state.

When specified in the conf file this parameter will make all invocations
of p2p_group_add, p2p_connect, and p2p_invite behave as if "ht40" has

regulatory constraints and driver capabilities are consulted anyway
before starting HT40 mode.

auto_interworking=1 configuration parameter can be used to request
wpa_supplicant to use Interworking network selection automatically as a

results do not match with enabled networks. This makes scanning work
similarly to the "interworking_select auto" command.

In case of P2P GO and AP mode, wpa_supplicant uses the default hostapd
parameters for WMM. In the default parameters the ACM bit for video and
voice are set to 1, meaning, P2P devices and stations which are
connected to the GO cannot pass voice or video data packets. Allow this
to be changed through wpa_supplicant configuration file with wmm_ac_*
parameters.

This enables setting a different max inactivity timeout for P2P GO.
This timeout is used to detect inactive clients. In some scenarios
it may be useful to have control over this and set a shorter timeout
than the default 300s. For example when running STA and P2P GO interfaces
concurrently, the STA interface may perform scans which may cause the
GO to miss a disassoc / deauth frames from a client and keep assuming
that the client is connected until the inactivity detection kicks in.
300 secs is a bit too long for such scenarios and creates a bad user
experience.

This new mechanism can be used to make wpa_supplicant using external
storage (e.g., key store in the operating system) for passwords,

needed to support this, i.e., no actual configuration parameter can
yet use this new mechanism. In addition, only a simple test backend
is added to allow developer testing of the functionality.

Each cred block can now be matched based on Roaming Consortium OI as an
alternative mechanism to using NAI Realm information. This may be
optimized for efficiency in the future since Roaming Consortium
information is available in scan results without having to go through
ANQP queries. In addition, this is easier to support in case there is a
large number of realms that can be used for authentication.

Instead of requiring low-level access to an NFC device and synchronous
operations, the new WPS_NFC_TOKEN and WPS_NFC ctrl_iface commands can be
used to build a NFC password token and initiate WPS protocol run using
that token (or pre-configured values) as separate commands. The
WPS_NFC_TOKEN output can be written to a NFC tag using an external
program, i.e., wpa_supplicant does not need to have low-level code for
NFC operations for this.

Do not try to associate with a network that has an invalid or incomplete
configuration because the association or at least data connection would
fail anyway. This commits adds a common function for checking whether a
network block is disabled to make it easier to check network blocks
without having to reject them during configuration file parsing (which
would prevent wpa_supplicant from starting). The only additional check
added in this commit is to verify the WEP key length. Similar checks for
other parameters can be added in future commits.

p2p_pref_chan configuration parameter can now be used to set the

p2p_pref_chan=<op class:channel>,...
For example:
p2p_pref_chan=81:1,81:2,81:3,81:4,81:5,81:6
This would configure 2.4 GHz channels 1-6 as the preferred ones with

The p2p_group_idle configuration parameter is much more useful for
