Thinking more about the Interim-Update case, whether or not to resend an Accounting-Request packet of this form should depend on when the end of the next interval will fall. If, for example, the end next interval is not going to be until 5 minutes away, hostapd absolutely should not wait until then to retry. This, especially so with the newer code in hostapd that populates the Framed-IP-Address attribute. Many people use this attribute for SSO purposes, so there are strong real world justifications to get this right. (The Framed-IP-Address feature in itself should be improved as, presently, an 'immediate' asynchronous Interim-Update isn't send as the client's IP address becomes known or changes and hostapd will use information that isn't sourced via DHCP snooping, which is unreliable and easily spoofable.)
