P2P listen phase is used to listen for P2P probe request messages
from peers. The probe reporting call should be done on the same
interface as the remain_on_channel.

Hi David,

Found during testing that my device was not found, because we were not
responding to P2P probe requests during the listen phase.

This patch fixes it for my driver and it kind of makes sense to me that
the probe request reporting should be done on the same interface as the
on doing the LISTEN.

Not sure whether the P2P device patches are already applied so sending
this patch to you first.

Regards,
Arend

Hmmm.
Your logic seems to be perfect, but it works fine for me without your fix, and stops to work with it. Didn't debug it yet, but maybe something is wrong with mac80211?

As I am working with a fullmac driver it does not involve mac80211. Are 
you using a mac80211 driver? Otherwise, we have to look for another 
culprit ;-)

Hi Johannes,

It seems we are having an interworking issue here. During the P2P LISTEN 
state, should probe requests be reported on the P2P_DEVICE interface or 
on the primary interface? The probe response from wpa_supplicant should 
be sent on the P2P_DEVICE interface for sure, right? We need a consensus 
here on what behaviour is required.

Regards,
Arend

I think they should be reported on the P2P_DEVICE. I believe that's
actually the case for our driver anyway since it just reports the
frames, and mac80211 will sort them according to the virtual interface
address.

OTOH, if this change broke our driver and it worked before, maybe it's
not the case? I don't really know.

David, can you send me (privately, and probably better to my @intel
address) a trace capture for this problem?

Good to hear we are on the same page on this.

That made me decide to ping you.

I was looking at this code for another reason and noticed that the
reporting is done using the bss->nl_mgmt socket -- maybe it should be
another socket?

Still not very proficient pn wpa_s, but the action frames are done in 
similar way.

nl80211_init_p2p_dev():
         /* Register P2P Public Action frame on the device interface */
         type = (WLAN_FC_TYPE_MGMT << 2) | (WLAN_FC_STYPE_ACTION << 4);
         nl80211_register_frame(p2p_dev, bss->nl_mgmt, type,
                                (u8 *) "\x04\x09\x50\x6f\x9a\x09", 6);

Yeah, I'm not convinced that's right either :-)

Also your patch breaks operating with hwsim.

I'm looking into it ...
