AFC is a regulatory requirement for SPDs to determine a list of\navailable channels and their permissible power levels.\n\nThe implementation introduces a new standalone daemon, afcd, to manage\ncommunication with the AFC server. A client within hostapd then interacts\nwith afcd via a Unix socket to fetch spectrum availability and update AP\nparameters accordingly. The series also includes hwsim tests for validation.\n\nThe implementation has been tested against the Wi-Fi Alliance's AFC DUT\nTest Harness [0].\n\n[0] https://github.com/Wi-FiTestSuite/AFC-DUT/tree/main\nChanges since v10:\n- fix compile warning\n- fix memory leak when building afc request\n- add bandwidth 320 afc testcase in hwsim test\n- rebase on top of hostapd main branch\nChanges since v9:\n- add afc event for EasyMesh spec 8.2.5 requirements\n- fix Wsign-compare\n- rebase on top of hostapd main branch\nChanges since v8:\n- rework afc request with internal JSON implementation\n- add hwsim test case to mock afcd and AFC server\n- add ctrl interface commands to dump AFC information and resend requests\n- rebase on top of hostapd main branch\nChanges since v7:\n- fix 320MHz channel width support\n- rebase on top of hostapd main branch\nChanges since v6:\n- do not run acs in hostapd_afc_handle_request() if the configured channel is\n available in the AFC list from the coordinator\n- fix possible crash in hostap_afc_disable_channels()\n- add more debug log in hostapd_afc_parse_reply()\nChanges since v5:\n- rebased on top of hostapd main branch\nChanges since v4:\n- fix curl header parsing\n- increase afc buffer size\n- fix afc-reply.txt\n- add some more error logging\n- add sanity check for some afc config file data\nChanges since v3:\n- fix compilation errors when IEEE80211_AX is not enabled\n- fix a leftover crash stopping the interface\n- make sure rx buffer is null-terminated\nChanges since v2:\n- multiple fixes testing with AFC DUT Test Harness\nChanges since v1:\n- use unix socket instead of a tcp one\nChanges since rfc:\n- move curl connection to a dedicated afc daemon\n\nAllen Ye (4):\n JSON: Add double type support\n hostapd: Expand hostapd_cli and ctrl_iface buffer size\n hostapd: Support 80/160/320 MHz widths in hostapd_is_usable_chans\n tests: Add AFC hwsim tests\n\nLorenzo Bianconi (3):\n hostapd: afcd: Add AFC daemon support\n hostapd: ap: Add AFC client support\n hostapd: Update TPE IE according to AFC\n\n afc/.gitignore | 1 +\n afc/Makefile | 31 +\n afc/afc-reply.txt | 219 ++++++\n afc/afcd.c | 402 ++++++++++\n hostapd/Makefile | 8 +\n hostapd/config_file.c | 250 +++++++\n hostapd/ctrl_iface.c | 53 +-\n hostapd/defconfig | 3 +\n hostapd/hostapd.conf | 41 +\n hostapd/hostapd_cli.c | 31 +-\n src/ap/afc.c | 1122 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++\n src/ap/ap_config.c | 15 +\n src/ap/ap_config.h | 46 ++\n src/ap/hostapd.c | 24 +\n src/ap/hostapd.h | 58 ++\n src/ap/hw_features.c | 128 +++-\n src/ap/hw_features.h | 7 +\n src/ap/ieee802_11.c | 53 +-\n src/common/wpa_ctrl.h | 3 +\n src/utils/json.c | 137 +++-\n src/utils/json.h | 3 +\n tests/hwsim/example-hostapd.config | 1 +\n tests/hwsim/test_afc.py | 335 +++++++++\n 23 files changed, 2899 insertions(+), 72 deletions(-)\n create mode 100644 afc/.gitignore\n create mode 100644 afc/Makefile\n create mode 100644 afc/afc-reply.txt\n create mode 100644 afc/afcd.c\n create mode 100644 src/ap/afc.c\n create mode 100644 tests/hwsim/test_afc.py"}
