Hi Jouni and all,
I am trying to setup FT-EAP with hostapd but struggle to have AP to AP
communication working. RRB packets are not received properly without
patching hostapd sources.
The setup is using two D-Link DWA-160 adapters (rt2800usb driver) each
on a separate instance of hostapd. The wireless interfaces are bridged
using the 'bridge' hostapd configuration option. I'm using Ubuntu 16.04
with HWE stack (kernel 4.8.0-41-generic).
Up until yesterday I was running with the "old" FT RRB protocol (hostapd
version from git 87ad672) and today I just tried with Michael's FT
improvement patches applied (942b52a) and the cause of problems seems
the be the same.
I can successfully connect to either AP but roaming is not working.
Using Wireshark to trace both the bridge interface and each wireless
interface I can see the RRB packets (for PMK R1 pull request) being sent
but for some reason not received properly. Not by any of the AP instances.
If I apply the following patch (to receive all ethernet frames) I can
connect and roam back and forth between the two APs with the old RRB
protocol:

For hostapd with new RRB protocol the hostapd_rrb_oui_receive handler is
not called until I change to ETH_P_ALL (in eth_p_oui_register).
Any clue why packets are received only when listening to all ethernet
frames?
