In many cases the pairwise and group cipher information is not the only
information needed from the BSS RSN/WPA elements in order to make a
decision. For example, th MFPC/MFPR bits might be needed, or
pre-authentication capability bits, group management ciphers, etc.
This patch refactors bss_get_supported_ciphers into the more general
scan_bss_get_rsn_info function
Split eapol_start into two calls, one to register the state machine so
that the PAE read handler knows not to discard frames for that ifindex,
and eapol_start to actually start processing the frames. This is needed
because, as per the comment in netdev.c, due to scheduling the PAE
socket read handler may trigger before the CMD_CONNECT event handler,
which needs to parse the FTE from the Associate Response frame and
supply it to the eapol SM before it can do anything with the message 1
of 4 of the FT handshake.
Another issue is that depending on the driver or timing, the underlying
link might not be marked as 'ready' by the kernel. In this case, our
response to Message 1 of the 4-way Handshake is written and accepted by
the kernel, but gets dropped on the floor internally. Which leads to
timeouts if the AP doesn't retransmit.
This function takes an Operating Channel and a Country String to convert
it into a band. Using scan_oper_class_to_band and scan_channel_to_freq,
an Operating Channel, a Country String and a Channel Number together can
be converted into an actual frequency. EU and US country codes based on
wpa_supplicant's tables.
It doesn't matter for crypto_derive_pairwise_ptk in non-SHA256 mode
but in the FT PTK derivation function, as well as in SHA256 mode all
bytes of the output do actually change with the PTK size.
