ChangeLog for wpa_supplicant
+2012-05-10 - v1.0
+ * bsd: Add support for setting HT values in IFM_MMASK.
+ * Delay STA entry removal until Deauth/Disassoc TX status in AP mode.
+ This allows the driver to use PS buffering of Deauthentication and
+ Disassociation frames when the STA is in power save sleep. Only
+ available with drivers that provide TX status events for Deauth/
+ Disassoc frames (nl80211).
+ * Drop oldest unknown BSS table entries first. This makes it less
+ likely to hit connection issues in environments with huge number
+ of visible APs.
+ * Add systemd support.
+ * Add support for setting the syslog facility from the config file
+ at build time.
+ * atheros: Add support for IEEE 802.11w configuration.
+ * AP mode: Allow enable HT20 if driver supports it, by setting the
+ config parameter ieee80211n.
+ * Allow AP mode to disconnect STAs based on low ACK condition (when
+ the data connection is not working properly, e.g., due to the STA
+ going outside the range of the AP). Disabled by default, enable by
+ config option disassoc_low_ack.
+ * nl80211:
+ - Support GTK rekey offload.
+ - Support PMKSA candidate events. This adds support for RSN
+ pre-authentication with nl80211 interface and drivers that handle
+ roaming internally.
+ * dbus:
+ - Add a DBus signal for EAP SM requests, emitted on the Interface
+ object.
+ - Export max scan ssids supported by the driver as MaxScanSSID.
+ - Add signal Certification for information about server certification.
+ - Add BSSExpireAge and BSSExpireCount interface properties and
+ support set/get, which allows for setting BSS cache expiration age
+ and expiration scan count.
+ - Add ConfigFile to AddInterface properties.
+ - Add Interface.Country property and support to get/set the value.
+ - Add DBus property CurrentAuthMode.
+ - P2P DBus API added.
+ - Emit property changed events (for property BSSs) when adding/
+ removing BSSs.
+ - Treat '' in SSIDs of Interface.Scan as a request for broadcast
+ scan, instead of ignoring it.
+ - Add DBus getter/setter for FastReauth.
+ - Raise PropertiesChanged on org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.
+ * wpa_cli:
+ - Send AP-STA-DISCONNECTED event when an AP disconnects a station
+ due to inactivity.
+ - Make second argument to set command optional. This can be used to
+ indicate a zero length value.
+ - Add signal_poll command.
+ - Add bss_expire_age and bss_expire_count commands to set/get BSS
+ cache expiration age and expiration scan count.
+ - Add ability to set scan interval (the time in seconds wpa_s waits
+ before requesting a new scan after failing to find a suitable
+ network in scan results) using scan_interval command.
+ - Add event CTRL-EVENT-ASSOC-REJECT for association rejected.
+ - Add command get version, that returns wpa_supplicant version string.
+ - Add command sta_autoconnect for disabling automatic reconnection
+ on receiving disconnection event.
+ - Setting bssid parameter to an empty string "" or any can now be
+ used to clear the bssid_set flag in a network block, i.e., to remove
+ bssid filtering.
+ - Add tdls_testing command to add a special testing feature for
+ changing TDLS behavior. Build param CONFIG_TDLS_TESTING must be
+ enabled as well.
+ - For interworking, add wpa_cli commands interworking_select,
+ interworking_connect, anqp_get, fetch_anqp, and stop_fetch_anqp.
+ - Many P2P commands were added. See README-P2P.
+ - Many WPS/WPS ER commands - see WPS/WPS ER sections for details.
+ - Allow set command to change global config parameters.
+ - Add log_level command, which can be used to display the current
+ debugging level and to change the log level during run time.
+ - Add note command, which can be used to insert notes to the debug
+ log.
+ - Add internal line edit implementation. CONFIG_WPA_CLI_EDIT=y
+ can now be used to build wpa_cli with internal implementation of
+ line editing and history support. This can be used as a replacement
+ for CONFIG_READLINE=y.
+ * AP mode: Add max_num_sta config option, which can be used to limit
+ the number of stations allowed to connect to the AP.
+ * Add WPA_IGNORE_CONFIG_ERRORS build option to continue in case of bad
+ config file.
+ * wext: Increase scan timeout from 5 to 10 seconds.
+ * Add blacklist command, allowing an external program to
+ manage the BSS blacklist and display its current contents.
+ * WPS:
+ - Add wpa_cli wps_pin get command for generating random PINs. This can
+ be used in a UI to generate a PIN without starting WPS (or P2P)
+ operation.
+ - Set RF bands based on driver capabilities, instead of hardcoding
+ them.
+ - Add mechanism for indicating non-standard WPS errors.
+ - Add CONFIG_WPS_REG_DISABLE_OPEN=y option to disable open networks
+ by default.
+ - Add wps_ap_pin cli command for wpa_supplicant AP mode.
+ - Add wps_check_pin cli command for processing PIN from user input.
+ UIs can use this command to process a PIN entered by a user and to
+ validate the checksum digit (if present).
+ - Cancel WPS operation on PBC session overlap detection.
+ - New wps_cancel command in wpa_cli will cancel a pending WPS
+ operation.
+ - wpa_cli action: Add WPS_EVENT_SUCCESS and WPS_EVENT_FAIL handlers.
+ - Trigger WPS config update on Manufacturer, Model Name, Model
+ Number, and Serial Number changes.
+ - Fragment size is now configurable for EAP-WSC peer. Use
+ wpa_cli set wps_fragment_size <val>.
+ - Disable AP PIN after 10 consecutive failures. Slow down attacks on
+ failures up to 10.
+ - Allow AP to start in Enrollee mode without AP PIN for probing, to
+ be compatible with Windows 7.
+ - Add Config Error into WPS-FAIL events to provide more info to the
+ user on how to resolve the issue.
+ - Label and Display config methods are not allowed to be enabled
+ at the same time, since it is unclear which PIN to use if both
+ methods are advertised.
+ - When controlling multiple interfaces:
+ - apply WPS commands to all interfaces configured to use WPS
+ - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS
+ - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on
+ all interfaces
+ * WPS ER:
+ - Add special AP Setup Locked mode to allow read only ER.
+ ap_setup_locked=2 can now be used to enable a special mode where
+ WPS ER can learn the current AP settings, but cannot change them.
+ - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events
+ - Add wps_er_set_config to enroll a network based on a local
+ network configuration block instead of having to (re-)learn the
+ current AP settings with wps_er_learn.
+ - Allow AP filtering based on IP address, add ctrl_iface event for
+ learned AP settings, add wps_er_config command to configure an AP.
+ * WPS 2.0: Add support for WPS 2.0 (CONFIG_WPS2)
+ - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_EXTENSIBILITY_TESTING to enable tool
+ for testing protocol extensibility.
+ - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_STRICT to allow disabling of WPS
+ workarounds.
+ - Add support for AuthorizedMACs attribute.
+ * TDLS:
+ - Propogate TDLS related nl80211 capability flags from kernel and
+ add them as driver capability flags. If the driver doesn't support
+ capabilities, assume TDLS is supported internally. When TDLS is
+ explicitly not supported, disable all user facing TDLS operations.
+ - Allow TDLS to be disabled at runtime (mostly for testing).
+ Use set tdls_disabled.
+ - Honor AP TDLS settings that prohibit/allow TDLS.
+ - Add a special testing feature for changing TDLS behavior. Use
+ CONFIG_TDLS_TESTING build param to enable. Configure at runtime
+ with tdls_testing cli command.
+ - Add support for TDLS 802.11z.
+ * wlantest: Add a tool wlantest for IEEE802.11 protocol testing.
+ wlantest can be used to capture frames from a monitor interface
+ for realtime capturing or from pcap files for offline analysis.
+ * Interworking: Support added for 802.11u. Enable in .config with
+ CONFIG_INTERWORKING. See wpa_supplicant.conf for config parameters
+ for interworking. wpa_cli commands added to support this are
+ interworking_select, interworking_connect, anqp_get, fetch_anqp,
+ and stop_fetch_anqp.
+ * Android: Add build and runtime support for Android wpa_supplicant.
+ * bgscan learn: Add new bgscan that learns BSS information based on
+ previous scans, and uses that information to dynamically generate
+ the list of channels for background scans.
+ * Add a new debug message level for excessive information. Use
+ -ddd to enable.
+ * TLS: Add support for tls_disable_time_checks=1 in client mode.
+ * Internal TLS:
+ - Add support for TLS v1.1 (RFC 4346). Enable with build parameter
+ CONFIG_TLSV11.
+ - Add domainComponent parser for X.509 names.
+ * Linux: Add RFKill support by adding an interface state "disabled".
+ * Reorder some IEs to get closer to IEEE 802.11 standard. Move
+ WMM into end of Beacon, Probe Resp and (Re)Assoc Resp frames.
+ Move HT IEs to be later in (Re)Assoc Resp.
+ * Solaris: Add support for wired 802.1X client.
+ * Wi-Fi Direct support. See README-P2P for more information.
+ * Many bugfixes.
+
