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 \ref driver.h and
all hardware/driver dependent functionality is implemented in
driver_*.c.
