The new hostapd configuration parameter no_probe_resp_if_max_sta=1 can
be used to request hostapd not to reply to broadcast Probe Request
frames from unassociated STA if there is no room for additional stations
(max_num_sta). This can be used to discourage a STA from trying to
associate with this AP if the association would be rejected due to
maximum STA limit.

Extended channel switch provides an ability to switch between operating

The new no_auth_if_seen_on=<ifname> parameter can now be used to
configure hostapd to reject authentication from a station that was seen
on another radio.
This can be used with enabled track_sta_max_num configuration on another
interface controlled by the same hostapd process to reject
authentication attempts from a station that has been detected to be
capable of operating on another band, e.g., to try to reduce likelihood
of the station selecting a 2.4 GHz BSS when the AP operates both a 2.4
GHz and 5 GHz BSS concurrently.
Note: Enabling this can cause connectivity issues and increase latency for

Commit 95b6bca66d ('Add rsn_pairwise bits
to set_ieee8021x() driver_ops') modified cipher configuration to use
unconditionally wpa_pairwise | rsn_pairwise. While that works for many
cases, it does not handle the case of dynamic configuration changes over
the control interface where wpa_pairwise or rsn_pairwise values may not
get cleared when the wpa parameter is modified. Fix this inconsistency

Do not reply to a Probe Request frame with a DSSS Parameter Set element
in which the channel is different than the operating channel of the AP,
as the sending station is not found on the AP's operating channel.
IEEE Std 802.11-2012 describes this as a requirement for an AP with
dot11RadioMeasurementActivated set to true, but strictly speaking does
not allow such ignoring of Probe Request frames if
dot11RadioMeasurementActivated is false. Anyway, this can help reduce
number of unnecessary Probe Response frames for cases where the STA is
less likely to see them (Probe Request frame sent on a neighboring, but
partially overlapping, channel).

This fixes an issue where a driver using the deprecated set_ieee8021x()
callback did not include rsn_pairwise bits in the driver configuration
even if mixed WPA+WPA2 configuration was used. This could result, e.g.,
in CCMP not being enabled properly when wpa_pairwise=TKIP and
rsn_pairwise=CCMP was used in the configuration. Fix this by using
bitwise OR of the wpa_pairwise and rsn_pairwise values to allow the
driver to enable all pairwise ciphers.
In addition, make the newer set_ap() driver_ops use the same bitwise OR
design instead of picking between rsn_pairwise and wpa_pairwise. This
makes the code paths consistent and can also fix issues with mixed mode
configuration with set_ap().
