Since netconfig is now part of the Connect() call from a DBus
perspective add a note indicating that this method has the potential
to take a very long time if there are issues with DHCP.
Since the method return to Connect() and ConnectBssid() come after
netconfig some tests needed to be updated since they were waiting
for the method return before continuing. For timeout-based tests
specifically this caused them to fail since before they expected
the return to come before the connection was actually completed.
Let the caller specify the method timeout if there is an expectation
that it could take a long time.
For the conventional connect call (not the "bssid" debug variant) let
them pass their own callback handlers. This is useful if we don't
want to wait for the connect call to finish, but later get some
indication that it did finish either successfully or not.
A netconfig failure results in a failed connection which restarts
autoconnect and prevents IWD from retrying the connection on any
other BSS's within the network as a whole. When autoconnect restarts
IWD will scan and choose the "best" BSS which is likely the same as
the prior attempt. If that BSS is somehow misconfigured as far as
DHCP goes, it will likely fail indefinitely and in turn cause IWD to
retry indefinitely.
To improve this netconfig has been adopted into the IWD's BSS retry
logic. If netconfig fails this will not result in IWD transitioning
to a disconnected state, and instead the BSS will be network
blacklisted and the next will be tried. Only once all BSS's have been
tried will IWD go into a disconnected state and start autoconnect
over.
When netconfig is enabled the DBus reply was being sent in
station_connect_ok(), before netconfig had even started. This would
result in a call to Connect() succeeding from a DBus perspective but
really netconfig still needed to complete before IWD transitioned
to a connected state.
Fixes: 72e7d3ceb83d ("station: Handle NETCONFIG_EVENT_FAILED")
This adds a new API network_clear_blacklist() and removes this
functionality from network_connected(). This is done to support BSS
iteration when netconfig is enabled. Since a call to
network_connected() will happen prior to netconfig completing we
cannot clear the blacklist until netconfig has either passed or
failed.
If this fails, in some cases, -EAGAIN would be returned up to netdev
which would then assume a retry would be done automatically. This
would not in fact happen since it was an internal SAE failure which
would result in the connect method return to never get sent.
Now if sae_send_commit() fails, return -EPROTO which will cause
netdev to fail the connection.
A BSS can temporarily reject associations and provide a delay that
the station should wait for before retrying. This is useful when
sane values are used, but taking it to the extreme an AP could
potentially request the client wait UINT32_MAX TU's which equates
to 49 days.
Either due to a bug, or worse by design, the kernel will wait for
however long that timeout is. Luckily the kernel also sends an event
to userspace with the amount of time it will be waiting. To guard
against excessive timeouts IWD will now handle this event and enforce
a maximum allowed value. If the timeout exceeds this IWD will
deauthenticate.
Specifically for the NO_MORE_STAS reason code, add the BSS to the
(now renamed) AP_BUSY blacklist to avoid roaming to this BSS for
the near future.
Since we are now handling individual reason codes differently the
whole IS_TEMPORARY_STATUS macro was removed and replaced with a
case statement.
The initial pass of this feature only envisioned BSS transition
management frames as the trigger to "roam blacklist" a BSS, hence
the original name. But some APs actually utilize status codes that
also indicate to the stations that they are busy, or not able to
handle more connections. This directly aligns with the original
motivation of the "roam blacklist" series and these events should
also trigger this type of blacklist.
First, since we will be applying this blacklist to cases other
than being told to roam, rename this reason code internally to
BLACKLIST_REASON_AP_BUSY. The config option is also being renamed
to [Blacklist].InitialAccessPointBusyTimeout while also supporting
the old config option, but warning that it is deprecated.
Some drivers/hardware are more strict about limiting use of
certain frequencies on startup until the regulatory domain has
been set. For most cards the only way to set the regulatory domain
is to scan and see BSS's nearby that advertise the country they
reside in.
This is particularly important for AP mode since AP's are always
emitting radiation from beacons and will not start until the desired
frequency is both enabled and allows IR. To make this process
seamless in IWD we will first check that the desired frequency is
enabled/IR and if not issue a scan to (hopefully) get the regulatory
domain set.
A prior patch broke this by checking the return of
l_dbus_message_iter_next_entry. This was really subtle but the logic
actually relied on _not_ checking that return in order to handle
empty lists.
Instead of reverting the logic was adapted/commented to make it more
clear what the API expects from DBus. If list contains at least one
value the first element path will get set, if it contains zero
values "new_path" will be set to NULL which will then cause the
list to be cleared later on.
This both fixes the regression, and makes it clear that a zero
element list is supported and handled.
The length of EncryptedSecurity was assumed to be at least 16 bytes
and anything less would underflow the length to l_malloc.

The MAC and version elements weren't super critical but the channel
and bootstrapping key elements would result in memory leaks if there
were duplicates.
This patch now will not allow duplicate elements in the URI.
Fixes: f7f602e1b1e7 ("dpp-util: add URI parsing")
The survey arrays were exactly the number of valid channels for a
given band (e.g. 14 for 2.4GHz) but since channels start at 1 this
means that the last channel for a band would overflow the array.

Supporting PMKSA on fullmac drivers requires that we set the PMKSA
into the kernel as well as remove it. This can now be triggered
via the new PMKSA driver callbacks which are implemented and set
with this patch.
In order to support fullmac drivers the PMKSA entries must be added
and removed from the kernel. To accomplish this a set of driver
callbacks will be added to the PMKSA module. In addition a new
pmksa_cache_free API will be added whos only purpose is to handle
the removal from the kernel.
The iwd_notice function was more meant for special purpose events
not general debug prints. For these error conditions we should be
using l_warn. For the informational "External Auth to SSID" log
we already print this information when connecting from station. In
addition there are logs when performing external auth so it should
be very obvious external auth is being used without this log.
The netdev frame watches got cleaned up upon the interface going down
which works if the interface is simply being toggled but when IWD
shuts down it first shuts down the interface, then immediately frees
netdev. If a watched frame arrives immediately after that before the
interface shutdown callback it will reference netdev, which has been
freed.
Fix this by clearing out the frame watches in netdev_free.

If an AP directed roam frame comes in while IWD is roaming its
still valuable to parse that frame and blacklist the BSS that
sent it.
This can happen most frequently during a roam scan while connected
to an overloaded BSS that is requesting IWD roams elsewhere.
If the BSS is requesting IWD roam elsewhere add this BSS to the
blacklist using BLACKLIST_REASON_ROAM_REQUESTED. This will lower
the chances of IWD roaming/connecting back to this BSS in the
future.
This then allows IWD to consider this blacklist state when picking
a roam candidate. Its undesireable to fully ban a roam blacklisted
BSS, so some additional sorting logic has been added. Prior to
comparing based on rank, BSS's will be sorted into two higher level
groups:
Above Threshold - BSS is above the RoamThreshold
Below Threshold - BSS is below the RoamThreshold
Within each of these groups the BSS may be roam blacklisted which
will position it at the bottom of the list within its respecitve
group.
This adds a new (less severe) blacklist reason as well as an option
to configure the timeout. This blacklist reason will be used in cases
where a BSS has requested IWD roam elsewhere. At that time a new
blacklist entry will be added which will be used along with some
other criteria to determine if IWD should connect/roam to that BSS
again.
Now that we have multiple blacklist reasons there may be situations
where a blacklist entry already exists but with a different reason.
This is going to be handled by the reason severity. Since we have
just two reasons we will treat a connection failure as most severe
and a roam requested as less severe. This leaves us with two
possible situations:
1. BSS is roam blacklisted, then gets connection blacklisted:
The reason will be "promoted" to connection blacklisted.
2. BSS is connection blacklisted, then gets roam blacklisted:
The blacklist request will be ignored
When pruning the list check_if_expired was comparing to the maximum
amount of time a BSS can be blacklisted, not if the current time had
exceeded the expirationt time. This results in blacklist entries
hanging around longer than they should, which would result in them
poentially being blacklisted even longer if there was another reason
to blacklist in the future.
Instead on prune check the actual expiration and remove the entry if
its expired. Doing this removes the need to check any of the times
in blacklist_contains_bss since prune will remove any expired entries
correctly.
