These are available to external +programs that attach to receive unsolicited messages over the control +interface with wpa_ctrl_attach(). + +The event messages will be delivered over the attach control interface +as text strings that start with the priority level of the message and +a fixed prefix text as defined in wpa_ctrl.h. After this, optional +additional information may be included depending on the event +message. For example, following event message is delivered when new +scan results are available: + +\verbatim +<2>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS +\endverbatim + +Following priority levels are used: +- 0 = MSGDUMP +- 1 = DEBUG +- 2 = INFO +- 3 = WARNING +- 4 = ERROR + +By default, any priority level greater than equal to 2 (INFO) are +delivered over the attached control interface. LEVEL command can be +used to set the level of messages which will be delivered. It should +be noted that there are many debug messages that do not include any +particulat prefix and are subject to change. They may be used for +debug information, but can usually be ignored by external programs. + +In most cases, the external program can skip over the priority field +in the beginning of the event message and then compare the following +text to the event strings from wpa_ctrl.h that the program is +interested in processing. + +Following subsections describe the most common event notifications +generated by %wpa_supplicant. + +\subsection ctrl_iface_event_CTRL_REQ CTRL-REQ- + +WPA_CTRL_REQ: Request information from a user.
