%wpa_supplicant implementation is divided into number of independent
modules. Core code includes functionality for controlling the network
selection, association, and configuration. Independent modules include
WPA code (key handshake, PMKSA caching, pre-authentication), EAPOL
state machine, and EAP state machine and methods. In addition, there
are number of separate files for generic helper functions.
Both WPA and EAPOL/EAP state machines can be used separately in other
programs than %wpa_supplicant. As an example, the included test
programs eapol_test and preauth_test are using these modules.
\ref driver_wrapper "Driver interface API" is defined in driver.h and
all hardware/driver dependent functionality is implemented in
driver_*.c.
\section wpa_supplicant_core wpa_supplicant core functionality
wpa_supplicant.c
Program initialization, main control loop
main.c
main() for UNIX-like operating systems and MinGW (Windows); this
uses command line arguments to configure wpa_supplicant
events.c
Driver event processing; wpa_supplicant_event() and related functions
wpa_supplicant_i.h
Internal definitions for %wpa_supplicant core; should not be
included into independent modules
\section generic_helper_func Generic helper functions
%wpa_supplicant uses generic helper functions some of which are shared
with with hostapd. The following C files are currently used:
eloop.c and eloop.h
Event loop (select() loop with registerable timeouts, socket read
callbacks, and signal callbacks)

Layer 2 (link) access wrapper (includes native Linux implementation
and wrappers for libdnet/libpcap). A new l2_packet implementation
may need to be added when porting to new operating systems that are
not supported by libdnet/libpcap. Makefile can be used to select which
l2_packet implementation is included. l2_packet_linux.c uses Linux
packet sockets and l2_packet_pcap.c has a more portable version using
libpcap and libdnet.
pcsc_funcs.c and pcsc_funcs.h

Private version of netlink definitions from Linux kernel header files;
this could be replaced with C library header file once suitable
version becomes commonly available

header files; this could be replaced with C library header file once
suitable version becomes commonly available
