+
+%wpa_supplicant implementation is divided into number of independent
+modules. Core code includes functionality for controlling the network
+selection, association, and configuration. Independent modules include
+WPA code (key handshake, PMKSA caching, pre-authentication), EAPOL
+state machine, and EAP state machine and methods. In addition, there
+are number of separate files for generic helper functions.
+
+Both WPA and EAPOL/EAP state machines can be used separately in other
+programs than %wpa_supplicant. As an example, the included test
+programs eapol_test and preauth_test are using these modules.
+
+\ref driver_wrapper "Driver interface API" is defined in driver.h and
+all hardware/driver dependent functionality is implemented in
+driver_*.c.
+
+
+\section wpa_supplicant_core wpa_supplicant core functionality
+
+wpa_supplicant.c

+
+main.c

+
+\section generic_helper_func Generic helper functions
+
+%wpa_supplicant uses generic helper functions some of which are shared
+with with hostapd. The following C files are currently used:

+ and wrappers for libdnet/libpcap). A new l2_packet implementation
+ may need to be added when porting to new operating systems that are
+ not supported by libdnet/libpcap. Makefile can be used to select which
+ l2_packet implementation is included. l2_packet_linux.c uses Linux
+ packet sockets and l2_packet_pcap.c has a more portable version using
+ libpcap and libdnet.
