This is merely an empty test that can act as a sandbox for the new
--shell command. It was not named with 'test' so that autotesting
will skip it.
This test is not very useful for virtual hardware testing
(mac80211_hwsim), but very useful for USB/PCI passthrough. When
setup correctly, you can now pass through a single device and test
against real networks with a minimal kernel.
It is sometimes valuable to just boot into a shell in order to manually
test functionality. Since test-runner already is setup to run a minimal
kernel with all the necessary requirements for hostapd/iwd it made
sense to allow the user to do this.
If -s,--shell is passed into test runner, no python tests will be run.
The hw.conf file is still used to setup IWD and hostapd so once booted
into the shell you can still (manually) run the test (e.g. via iwctl).
This also works when using USB/PCI passthrough. This makes testing
out different kernel version with real hardware much quicker than
using the host kernel.
Doing this scan causes issues in the test. Like with other autoconnect
tests we can just use the fact that IWD will always be doing a periodic
scan during start up, so we only need to wait for that to finish before
querying the network list.
Previously, the option PrivateDevices=true disabled access to
/dev/rfkill, which lead to:
'iwctl adapter phy0 set-property Powered {off|on}'
to fail.
This patch explicitly allows access to /dev/rfkill
src/rtnlutil.c: In function ‘rtnl_route_add’:
./ell/util.h:248:2: error: ‘rtmmsg’ may be used uninitialized in
this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
Instead of using a flag ipv4_static, just store the value of the rtm
protocol directly inside netconfig object. This allows us to simplify
the logic quite significantly and avoid repeating the conditional
expression needlessly
The routes are installed as a result of a successful installation
of the IP addresses. The gateway is fetched with netconfig_ipv4_get_gateway
helper function according to the origin of the installed IP address.
The route priority offset can be set in main.conf. The default value
of 300 is used if the offset isn’t set.
The API allows to add connected and gateway routes to the main
routing table.
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_gateway() is equivalent to the following
example 'ip route' command:
ip route add default via 10.0.0.1 dev wlan0 proto dhcp src 10.0.0.2 metric 339
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_connected() is equivalent to the following
example 'ip route' command:
sudo ip route add 10.0.0.0/24 dev wlan0 proto dhcp src 10.0.0.2 scope link
The 'ip route' output from the above commands looks as follows:
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_connected():
10.0.0.0/24 dev wlan0 proto dhcp scope link src 10.0.0.2
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_gateway():
default via 10.0.0.1 dev wlan0 proto dhcp src 10.0.0.2 metric 339
The DNS addresses are installed as a result of a successful
installation of the IP addresses. The DNS lists are fetched
with netconfig_ipv4_get_dns helper function according to the
origin of the installed IP address.
iwd reconfigures the wireless interfaces with respective
connection events. Each supported network protocol is
reconfigured. The address for each protocol is
selected as static or dynamic based on availability.
netconfig_ipv4_get_ifaddr helper function allows to fetch IPv4
addresses from static or dynamic sources. The origin of the addresses
is noted in 'ipv4_is_static' flag.
All options should now have a description which describes the
default value for each option. The example use (commented or not)
now contains the default value as well.
This tool will convert an iOS 'mobileconfig' file into the IWD
format. The tool only supports PEAP and TTLS networks, including
hotspots.
It will also parse out any certificate chains found in the
mobileconfig file, and verify they lead to a root CA found on the
system. If they do, this root CA will be used as the CACert in
the provisioning file.
For (Re)Association the HS20 indication element was passed exactly as
it was found in the scan results. The spec defines what bits can be
set and what cannot when this IE is used in (Re)Association. Instead
of assuming the AP's IE conforms to the spec, we now parse the IE and
re-build it for use with (Re)Association.
Since the full IE is no longer used, it was removed from scan_bss, and
replaced with a bit for HS20 support (hs20_capable). This member is
now used the same as hs20_ie was.
The version parsed during scan results is now used when building the
(Re)Association IE.
The parser fully parses the IE and returns the version, Domain ID,
and PPS MO ID. This is meant to be used with an IE in scan results.
The builder only takes the version number, and assumes DGAF disabled,
and no Domain ID or PPS MO ID.
Previously, iwd used to throw net.connman.iwd.Busy when connection
attempt was made while connected. The new behavior allows iwd to
seamlessly disconnect from the connected network and attempt a new
connection.
