Use beacon loss event to trigger a roam attempt in addition to the RSSI
monitoring. Due to the how well beacons are normally received compared
to data packets, a beacon loss indicates a serious problem with the
connection so act as soon as a first beacon loss event is seen.
Avoid roaming methods that involve the current AP: preauthentication,
neighbor report request and FT-over-the-DS (not supported)
The kernel doesn't reset the netdev's state to disconnected when it
sends us a beacon loss event so we can't either unless we automatically
send a disconnect command to the kernel.
It seems the handling of beacon loss depends on the driver. For example
in mac80211 only after N beacon loss events (default 7) a probe request is
sent to the AP and a deauthenticate packet is sent if no probe reply is
receiver within T (default 500ms).
Allow registering and unregistering agent object to receive RSSI level
notifications. The methods are similar to the ones related to the
password agent, including a Release method for the agent.
Add an methods and an event using the new
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST kernel feature to request RSSI
monitoring with notifications only when RSSI moves from one of the N
intervals requested to another.
device.c will call netdev_set_rssi_report_levels to request
NETDEV_EVENT_RSSI_LEVEL_NOTIFY events every time the RSSI level changes,
level meaning one of the intervals delimited by the threshold values
passed as argument. Inside the event handler it can call
netdev_get_rssi_level to read the new level.
There's no fallback to periodic polling implemented in this patch for
the case of older kernels and/or the driver not supporting
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST.
Use netdev_reassociate if FT is not available. device_select_akm_suite
is only moved up in the file and the reused code from device_connect is
moved to a separate function.
Pass an additional parameter to the scan results notify functions to
tell them whether the scan was successful. If it wasn't don't bother
passing an empty bss_list queue, pass NULL as bss_list. This way the
callbacks can tell whether the scan indicates there are no BSSes in
range or simply was aborted and the old scan results should be kept.

Handle the changes of interface address in RTNL New Link messages
similarly to the name changes, emit a NETDEV_WATCH_EVENT_ADDRESS_CHANGE
event and a propety change on dbus.
Note this can only happen when the interface is down so it doesn't
break anything but we need to handle it anyway.
Define minimum delay between roam attempts and add automatic retries.
This handles a few situations:
* roam attempt failing, then RSSI going above the threshold and below
again -- in that case we don't want to reattempt too soon, we'll only
reattempt after 60s.
* roam attempt failing then RSSI staying low for longer than 60 -- in
that case we want to reattempt after 60s too.
* signal being low from the moment we connected -- in that case we also
want to attempt a roam every some time.
Fix a leak of the MDE buffer. It is now only needed for the single call
to handshake_state_set_mde which copies the bytes anyway so use a buffer
on stack.
Add a flush flag to scan_parameters to tell the kernel to flush the
cache of scan results before the new scan. Use this flag in the
active scan during roaming.
Make sure that the Neighbor Report timeout is cancelled when connection
breaks or device is being destroyed, and call the callback. Add an
errno parameter to the callback to indicate the cause.
With this patch an actual fast transition should happen when the signal
strength goes low but there are still various details to be fixed before
this becomes useful:
* the kernel tends to return cached scan results and won't update the
rssi values,
* there's no timer to prevent too frequent transition attempts or to
retry after some time if the signal is still low,
* no candidate other than the top ranked BSS is tried. With FT it
may be impossible to try another BSS anyway although there isn't
anything in the spec to imply this. It would require keeping the
handshake_state around after netdev gives up on the transition
attempt.
Trigger a scan of the selected channels or all channels if no useful
neighbor list was obtained, then process the scan results to select the
final target BSS.
The actual transition to the new BSS is not included in this patch for
readability.
Trigger a roam attempt when the RSSI level has been low for at least 5
seconds using the netdev RSSI LOW/HIGH events. See if neighbor reports
are supported and if so, request and process the neighbor reports list
to restrict the number of channels to be scanned. The scanning part is
not included in this patch for readability.
This adds support for iwd.conf 'ManagementFrameProtection' setting.
This setting has the following semantics, with '1' being the default:
0 - MFP off, even if hardware is capable
1 - Use MFP if available
2 - MFP required. If the hardware is not capable, no connections will
be possible. Use at your own risk.
There are situations when a CMD_DISCONNECT or deauthenticate will be
issued locally because of an error detected locally where netdev would
not be able to emit a event to the device object. The CMD_DISCONNECT
handler can only send an event if the disconnect is triggered by the AP
because we don't have an enum value defined for other diconnects. We
have these values defined for the connect callback but those errors may
happen when the connect callback is already NULL because a connection
has been estabilshed. So add an event type for local errors.
These situations may occur in a transition negotiation or in an eapol
handshake failure during rekeying resulting in a call to
netdev_handshake_failed.
Remove the keys and other data from struct eapol_sm, update device.c,
netdev.c and wsc.c to use the handshake_state object instead of
eapol_sm. This also gets rid of eapol_cancel and the ifindex parameter
in some of the eapol functions where sm->handshake->ifindex can be
used instead.
If device_select_akm_suite selects Fast Transition association then pass
the MD IE and other bits needed for eapol and netdev to do an FT
association and 4-Way Handshake.
If an MD IE is supplied to netdev_connect, pass that MD IE in the
associate request, then validate and handle the MD IE and FT IE in the
associate response from AP.
Don't decide on the AKM suite to use when the bss entries are received
and processed, instead select the suite when the connection is triggered
using a new function device_select_akm_suite, similar to
wiphy_select_cipher(). Describing the AKM suite through flags will be
more difficult when more than 2 suites per security type are supported.
Also handle the wiphy_select_cipher 0 return value when no cipher can be
selected.
The len parameter was only used so it could be validated against ie[1],
but since it was not checked to be > 2, it must have been validated
already, the check was redundant. In any case all users directly
passed ie[1] as len anyway. This makes it consistent with the ie
parsers and builders which didn't require a length.
In many cases the pairwise and group cipher information is not the only
information needed from the BSS RSN/WPA elements in order to make a
decision. For example, th MFPC/MFPR bits might be needed, or
pre-authentication capability bits, group management ciphers, etc.
This patch refactors bss_get_supported_ciphers into the more general
scan_bss_get_rsn_info function
Use the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interfaces on objects with
properties and drop the old style GetProperty/SetProperty methods on
individual interfaces. Agent and KnownNetworks have no properties at
this time so don't add org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interfaces.
This also fixes a potential buffer overflow since the ssid was cast to a
string inside network_create. However, ssid is a buffer of 32 bytes,
and would not be null-terminated in the case of a 32-byte SSID.
Calling device_disassociated inside disconnect_cb was mostly pointless.
Most attributes were already cleared by device_disconnect() when
initiating the disconnection procedure.
This patch also modifies the logic for triggering the autoconnect. If
the user initiated the disconnect call, then autoconnect should not be
triggered. If the disconnect was triggered by other means, then iwd
will still enter autoconnect mode.
All of the abortion logic is invoked when device_disconnect is called.
So there's no point calling device_disassociated in this case. This
also prevents us from entering into autoconnect mode too early.
Also, remove the check for device->state == DEVICE_STATE_CONNECTING.
device_connect_cb should always called when the state is CONNECTING.
If this is not so, it indicates a bug inside the netdev layer.
This was introduced by commit f468fceb02.
However, after commit 2d78f51fac66b9beff03a56f12e5fb8456625f07, the
connect_cb is called from inside netdev_disconnect. This in turn causes
the dbus-reply to be sent out if needed. So by the time we get to the
code in question, connect_pending is always NULL.
Change the path for net.connman.iwd.Device objects to /phyX/Y and
register net.connman.iwd.Adapter at /phyX grouping devices of the same
wiphy.
Turns out no changes to the test/* scripts are needed.
The boolean property indicates if a scan is ongoing. Only the scans
triggered by device.c are reflected (not the ones from WSC) because only
those scans affect the list of networks seen by Dbus.
If Disconnect is called during an ongoing connection attempt send a
CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE command same as when we're already connected, and
send a reply to potential dbus Connect call.
Instead of calling the device added or removed callback when the
interface is detected, call it when interface goes up or down. This
only affects the addition and removal of the WSC interface now.
During the network_info refactoring the adding of the connected BSS to
device->bss_list in case it is not in the scan results has moved to
after the l_hashmap_foreach_remove call meaning that the network could
be removed even though it is still pointed at by
device->connected networks. Reverse the order to what it was before.
Alternatively network_process network could take not of the fact the
network is connected and not call network_remove on it leaving it with
an empty bss_list.
It is probably rare that a disconnect should fail but if it happens the
device->state is not returned to CONNECTED and I'm not sure if it should
be, so the ConnectedNetwork property and other bits should probably be
reset at the start of the disconnection instead of at the end.
Also check if state is CONNECTED before calling network_disconnected
because network_connected may have not been called yet.
The eapol state machine parameters are now built inside device.c when
the network connection is attempted. The reason is that the device
object knows about network settings, wiphy constraints and should
contain the main 'management' logic.
netdev now manages the actual low-level process of building association
messages, detecting authentication events, etc.
Turn netdev watches into device watches. The intent is to refactor out
netdev specific details into its own class and move device specific
logic into device.c away from wiphy.c
