This allows HT capabilities overrides on kernels that
support these features.
MCS Rates can be disabled to force to slower speeds when using HT.
Rates cannot be forced higher.
HT can be disabled, forcing an 802.11a/b/g/n station to act like
an 802.11a/b/g station.
HT40 can be disabled.
MAX A-MSDU can be disabled.
A-MPDU Factor and A-MPDU Density can be modified.
Please note that these are suggestions to the kernel. Only mac80211
drivers will work at all. The A-MPDU Factor can only be decreased and
the A-MPDU Density can only be increased currently.

This updates a previous patch did more or less the same thing by
providing the qosinfo as a single variable to the driver wrappers.

HT_INFO_OPERATION_MODE_OP_MODE_MASK is used with variables in host
byte order, so it should not be claimed as le16.

When a discovery request is received, add the peer to the TDLS peer
cache and send a response containing minimal data. Mandatory IEs in
the discovery response frame will be filled out by the driver.

"hostapd_cli ess_disassoc (STA addr) (URL)" can now be used to send
an ESS Dissassociation Imminent notification to the STA. This event
is shown in wpa_supplicant ctrl_iface monitors (e.g., wpa_cli):
"WNM: ESS Disassociation Imminent - session_info_url=http://example.com/session/"
The new wpa_supplicant.conf file global parameters interworking and
hessid can be used to configure wpa_supplicant to include
Interworking element in Probe Request frames.
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.
The nl80211 driver can report low ACK condition (in fact it reports
complete loss right now only). Use that, along with a config option, to
disconnect stations when the data connection is not working properly,
e.g., due to the STA having went outside the range of the AP. This is
disabled by default and can be enabled with disassoc_low_ack=1 in
hostapd or wpa_supplicant configuration file.

This tool can be used to capture IEEE 802.11 frames either from a
monitor interface for realtime capturing or from pcap files for
offline analysis. This version is only adding basic infrastructure for
going through the frames and parsing their headers.
hostapd will now go through the RIC Request and process each RDIE. Only
WMM TSPEC requests are currently supported; all other request
descriptors will be declined.
RIC Response is written by hostapd and verified by wpa_supplicant (MIC
validation). wpa_supplicant does not yet have code to notify the driver
about the resource request results.
Calculate the estimated medium time using integer variables since there
is no real need to use floating point arithmetics here. In addition,
make sure there is no division by zero regardless of how invalid the
request from the station is. Reject invalid parameters and refuse
requests that would take most of the bandwidth by themselves.
Add test code into wpa_supplicant mlme.c to allow WMM-AC negotiation to
be tested with driver_test.
This updates the terminogy to match with the final WMM specification. In
addition, some of the WMM TSPEC structure fields were in incorrect order
and used without byte order swapping. Those are also taken care of this
cleanup patch.
The separate Association Comeback Time IE was removed from IEEE 802.11w
and the Timeout Interval IE (from IEEE 802.11r) is used instead. The
editing on this is still somewhat incomplete in IEEE 802.11w/D7.0, but
still, the use of Timeout Interval IE is the expected mechanism.
IEEE 802.11w/D7.0 incorrectly changed the Action Category from 8 to 7
when renaming Ping to SA Query. Category 7 is reserved for HT (IEEE
802.11n) and IEEE 802.11w will need to continue to use the category 8
that was allocated for it.
This commit changes just the name and Action category per D7.0. The
retransmit/timeout processing in the AP is not yet updated with the
changes in D7.0.
This IE is not (at least yet) actually used for anything, but parsing it
cleans up verbose debug log a bit since thie previously unknown, but
commonly used, vendor IE was being reported as unknown.
This updates management frame protection to use the assocition ping process
from the latest draft (D6.0) to protect against unauthenticated
authenticate or (re)associate frames dropping association.
This adds most of the new frame format and identifier definitions from IEEE
802.11w/D6.0. In addition, the RSN IE capability field values for MFP is
replaced with the new two-bit version with MFPC (capable) and MFPR
(required) processing.
This commit brings in cleaned up version of IEEE 802.11n implementation
from Intel (1). The Intel tarball includes number of other changes, too,
and only the changes specific to IEEE 802.11n are brought in here. In
addition, this does not include all the changes (e.g., some of the
configuration parameters are still missing and driver wrapper changes for
mac80211 were not included).

This allows associations to be denied if the STA tries to use too large
listen interval. The default value is 65535 which matches with the field
size limits.
