If a 2.4 GHz band AP receives a 20/40 Coexistence management frame from
a connected station with 20/40 BSS Intolerant Channel Report element
containing the channel list in which any legacy AP are detected or AP
with 40 MHz intolerant bit set in HT Cap IE is detected in the affected
range of the BSS, the BSS will be moved from 40 to 20 MHz channel width.

Extend the minimal HT 20/40 co-ex support to include dynamic changes
during the lifetime of the BSS. If any STA connects to a 2.4 GHz AP with
40 MHz intolerant bit set then the AP will switch to 20 MHz operating
mode.
If for a period of time specified by OBSS delay factor and OBSS scan
interval AP does not have any information about 40 MHz intolerant STAs,
the BSS is switched from HT20 to HT40 mode.

Commit 88b32a99d3 added support for using
some Action frame processing in hostapd for drivers that handle most of
SME/MLME internally (it added FT, this has since be extended for SA
Query and WNM). However, this was added in a way that ended up getting
both the hostapd_rx_action() and hostapd_action_rx() called for Action
frames. This could result in an attempt to process FT, SA Query, and WNM
Action frames twice.
There is need for more significant cleanup in Action frame processing in
hostapd depending on the driver type, but as a simple step to avoid
issues, skip the hostapd_action_rx() call if hostapd_rx_action()
processed the frame.

This allows QoS Map Set element to be added to (Re)Association Response
frames and in QoS Map Configure frame. The QoS Mapping parameters are
also made available for the driver interface.

If WNM is enabled for the build (CONFIG_WNM=y), add BSS max idle period
information to the (Re)Association Response frame from the AP and parse
this information on the station. For SME-in-wpa_supplicant case, add a
timer to handle periodic transmission of the keep-alive frame. The
actual request for the driver to transmit a frame is not yet
implemented.

The new event can be used when EAPOL TX status can't be reported as a
complete 802.11 frame but is instead reported as just the EAPOL data as
originally passed to hapd_send_eapol().

This offloads the station polling to driver wrappers, which may offload
it again to the driver. The hostap driver wrapper uses "real" data
frames while nl80211 uses null data frames.
Also add a specific event to indicate that a poll was successful for
future use with the nl80211 driver.
This is the first step in allowing SA Query mechanism in hostapd to be
used with drivers that implement authentication and association MLME/SME
(i.e., do not use ieee802_11.c).
In multi BSS setups it wasn't possible to set up an HT BSS in
conjunction with a WEP/TKIP BSS. HT needed to be turned off entirely
to allow WEP/TKIP BSSes to be used.
In order to allow HT BSSes to coexist with non-HT WEP/TKIP BSSes add a
new BSS conf attribute "disable_11n" which disables HT capabilities on a
single BSS by suppressing HT IEs in the beacon and probe response
frames. Furthermore, mark all STAs associated to a WEP/TKIP BSS as
non-HT STAs. The disable_11n parameter is used internally; no new entry
is parsed from hostapd.conf.
This allows a non-HT WEP/TKIP BSS to coexist with a HT BSS without
having to disable HT mode entirely. Nevertheless, all STAs associated to
the WEP/TKIP BSS will only be served as if they were non-HT STAs.

tdls_prohibit=1 and tdls_prohibit_chan_switch=1 and now be used to
disable use of TDLS or TDLS channel switching in the BSS using
extended cabilities IE as defined in IEEE 802.11z.
This code can be shared by both hostapd and wpa_supplicant and this
is an initial step in getting the generic code moved to be under the
src directories. Couple of generic files still remain under the
hostapd directory due to direct dependencies to files there. Once the
dependencies have been removed, they will also be moved to the src/ap
directory to allow wpa_supplicant to be built without requiring anything
from the hostapd directory.
