IEEE 802.11w uses distinct key indexes (4 and 5) so the same
get_seqnum() handler can be used to fetch packet number for both
TKIP/CCMP and BIP(using IGTK).
Since the new get_seqnum_igtk() handler was not actually implemented by
any driver wrapper, this may also fix BIP/IGTK sequence number reporting
with driver_nl80211.c.
This makes it clearer which files are including header from src/common.
Some of these cases should probably be cleaned up in the future not to
do that.
In addition, src/common/nl80211_copy.h and wireless_copy.h were moved
into src/drivers since they are only used by driver wrappers and do not
need to live in src/common.
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.
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.
If a STA reassociates and changes key_mgmt (e.g., from WPA-PSK to WPS),
hostapd needs to reset some of the existing STA and WPA state machine
variables to allow correct processing for the new association.
Added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against TKIP
deficiencies. This can be set either by the Authenticator (to initiate
periodic 4-way handshake to rekey PTK) or by the Supplicant (to request
Authenticator to rekey PTK).
With both wpa_ptk_rekey and wpa_group_rekey (in hostapd) set to 600, TKIP
keys will not be used for more than 10 minutes which may make some attacks
against TKIP more difficult to implement.
Previous version could have allowed a broken client to complete WPA (or
WPA2) authentication even if the selected proto was not enabled in hostapd
configuration.
