504a5839ea P2P: Increase GO Negotiation timeouts
p2p_set_timeout() calls in GO Neg Req/Resp TX callbacks used timeout of
100 ms which is the value given in the P2P specification for GO
Negotiation, but this was actually shorter than the
wait-for-offchannel-TX value (200 ms) used for the driver call. In
addition, it looks like some devices (e.g., Galaxy Nexus with JB image)
can take longer time to reply to GO Negotiation Response (somewhere
between 200 and 250 ms has been observed).

Increase the wait-for-GO-Neg-Resp timeout from 100 ms to 200 ms if GO
Negotiation Request frame was acknowledged (this matches with the
offchannel wait timeout that used previously). The no-ack case is left
at 100 ms since we use GO Negotiation Request frame also to discover
whether the peer is on its Listen channel.

Increase the wait-for-GO-Neg-Conf timeout from 100 ms to 250 ms (and
increase the offchannel wait timeout to matching 250 ms) as a workaround
for devices that take over 200 ms to reply to GO Negotiation Response.

Commit 6b56cc2d97 added retries of
provision discovery request frames in IDLE state. However, it did not
make the p2p_find case behave consistently with the new limitied retry
behavior. This can result in way too many and frequent PD retries. Fix
this by extending the previous commit to address PD retries and maximum
retry limit consistently regardless of whether p2p_find is running.

e6ecfc4fd3 P2P: Remove GO neg/invite special cases from search
There are separate states for these, so we can't really get into this
situation unless somebody tries to do multiple things at the same
time. p2p_connect stops find and CONNECT state is used to probe the peer
on its Listen channel with GO Negotiation Request frames. Similarly,
p2p_invite() stops find and INVITE state is used to probe the peer on
its Listen channel with Invitation Request frames. The older mechanism
of using Search state functionality to find the peer can be removed.

f33bc03582 P2P: Fix P2P Client Discoverability bit updates
The P2P Client Discoverability bit is reserved in most frames and its
value in the local P2P peer table should only be updated based on P2P
Group Info attribute from a GO. Fix this by avoiding changes to this
dev_capab bit based on other P2P frames. It would be more correct to
track this separately for each group in which the peer is a member, but
since we do not do that for the other group specific information either,
this can do for now.

It should be noted that prior to commit
18485b5469 wpa_supplicant set this bit in
all P2P frames. However, that commit changed this to match the
specification, i.e., the bit is not set in frames which are received
from P2P Device role. As such, this fix is needed to be able to figure
out that a peer supports client discoverability capability after that
commit.

In the P2P specification v1.1, the P2P Client Discoverability bit is

P2P Device supports P2P Client Discoverability, and is set to 0
otherwise. This field shall be reserved and set to 0 in all other frames
or uses.". To match with this, filter out P2P Client Discoverability bit
from frames where its use is reserved.

198f82a1e3 P2P: Ignore unexpected GO Neg Resp is we have sent Resp
There is a race condition in GO Negotiation Request frame sending and
processing that may end up with both devices sending GO Negotiation
Response. This response frame was previously accepted even if a response
had already been sent. This could result in two GO Negotiation Confirm
frames being exchanged and consequently, with two separate GO
Negotiations completing concurrently. These negotiations could result in
getting mismatching parameters (e.g., both device could believe it was
the GO).

Fix this by ignoring GO Negotiation Response from the peer if twe have
already sent a GO Negotiation Response frame and we have the higher P2P
Device Address. This is similar to the rule used to determine whether to
reply to GO Negotiation Request frame when Request was already sent,
i.e., the same direction of GO Negotiation is maintained here to enforce
that only the negotiation initiated by the device with smaller P2P
Device Address is completed.

a1d2ab329e P2P: Address race condition with GO Negotiation Request TX status
If both peers initiate GO Negotiation at about the same time, it is
possible for the GO Negotiation Request frame from the peer to be
received between the local attempt to send the GO Negotiation Request
and TX status event for that. This could result in both devices sending
GO Negotiation Response frames even though one of them should have
skipped this based which device uses a higher MAC address.

Resolve this race by incrementing go_neg_req_sent when p2p_send_action()
returns success instead of doing this from the TX status callback. If
the frame is not acknowledged, go_neg_req_sent is cleared in TX status
handler.

3fe8b68d63 P2P: Wait 100 ms if driver fails to start listen operation
Some drivers may accept the remain-on-channel command, but instead of
indicating start event for remain-on-channel, just indicate that the
operation has been canceled immediately. This could result in continuous
loop of search/listen states with very limited time to do anything else
in wpa_supplicant if the scan command is also completed quickly (e.g.,
if the driver is unable to scan other channels than the current
operating channel).

As a workaround, do not start the next step (search) in P2P device
discovery if this type of rejection of listen operation is detected.
This gives some more time for wpa_supplicant to handle whatever else
may be needed at to be done at the same time and reduces the amount
of CPU used in a loop that does not really work correctly from the
view point of being discoverable.

c98b83f2d3 P2P: Do not update peer Listen channel based on PD/Invitation
Commits 17bef1e97a and
ffe98dfb88 started using p2p_add_device()
with other frames than just Probe Response frames from scan results.
However, these changes did not take into account that the PD Request
and Invitation Request frames are normally received on the our own
Listen channel, not on the Listen channel of the peer. As such, these
frames must not be used to update Listen channel information for the
peer.

Fix this by letting p2p_add_device() know whether the results are from
scan results and if not, skip the peer table updates that are specific
to Probe Response frames.

2d43d37ff2 DBus: Add ability to report probe requests
Some applications require knowing about probe requests to identify

unicast only to that application.

the p2p_get_peer_info() function is actually used only in ctrl_iface.c.

d9bdba9f86 P2P: Do not allow pending listen command override connect
If p2p_listen is issued during a p2p_scan, a pending after-scan operation
is scheduled. However, since there is support for only a single pending
operation, this was able to override a previously scheduled pending
connect command. This can break some command sequences, so give higher
priority to pending connect operation.

d58ed4e306 P2P: Reduce the idle time in Wait peer connect state
When waiting for go_neg frame from the peer in WAIT_PEER_CONNECT state,
I have observed that sometimes it takes 20 to 30 secs for successful GO
negotiation. I also found out that it is because of 1 second idle time,
in WAIT_PEER_CONNECT state. While it is good to have 1 second idle time
[for doing power-save or doing some other legacy STA Scan or some other
useful stuff], this makes GO Negotiation process slow.

We wait for 1 second idle and then listen for a random time between
100(min)-300(max) ms. Assume P1 is in WAIT_PEER_CONNECT state and P2 is
the one which is now to send go_neg frame. If P2 sends GO Negotiation
frame just at the boundary of 300 ms of P1 and assume that P2 takes
close to 600-800 ms for one iteration of sending go_neg request (one
iteration is GO Negotiation Request frame time + dwell time +
listen_time), P2 needs to transmit at least 16-18 Action frames for
hitting the listen time of P1.

Following patch reduces the idle time to 500 ms. Alternatively we can
increase the listen time interval to 500 ms just for WAIT_PEER_CONNECT
state.

bfe3557a07 P2P: Fix PROBE_REQ_ONLY flag use for Provision Discovery Request
Provision discovery from a known peer should actually check for
dev->flags & P2P_DEV_PROBE_REQ_ONLY. This is creating an issue of
updating the listen frequency of peer with the PD request frame
frequency. PD request frame will be sent by the peer on our local listen
frequency. This patch fixes that error. Suggested check has already been
implemented in the invitation req receive path.
