Yes, using the EAP state machine and PEAP peer implementation from
wpa_supplicant would be the best interface for doing something like
this. Your program would need to provide "EAPOL interface" by
implementing functions defined in struct eapol_callbacks (in eap.h) and
call eap_peer_sm_step() whenever state variables change. eapol_sm.c is
an example on how this can be done.
