WEP networks are not supported by iwd. However, the only indication is the
message "Operation not supported" while trying to connect. It is not clear
enough that this is due to intentional lack of support (as opposed to some
kind of misconfiguration). This patch explicitly lists WEP networks shown
with get-networks as unsupported. Hopefully this will make it clearer for
those of us not as familiar with iwd.
This fixes up a previous commit which breaks iwctl. The
check was added to satisfy static analysis but it ended
up preventing iwctl from starting. In this case mkdir
can fail (e.g. if the directory already exists) and only
if it fails should the history be read. Otherwise a
successful mkdir return indicates the history folder is
new and there is no reason to try reading it.
The diagnostic interface will now only come up when station is
connected. This avoids the need for display station to return
a 'connected' out parameter. We can instead just see that
the diagnostic interface doesn't exist.
This will show some basic AP information like Started and
network Name. Some cleanup was done to make the AP interface
and client table columns line up.
StartProfile was added to the AP interface but the required
command was never added to iwctl. This command requires a
profile exists in <configuration dir>/ap/. The syntax is as
follows:
ap <wlanX> start-profile <profile_name>
This command uses GetDiagnostics to show a list of connected
clients and some information about them. The information
contained for each connected station nearly maps 1:1 with the
station diagnostics information shown in "station <wlan> show"
apart from "ConnectedBss" which is now "Address".
For now this module serves as a helper for printing diagnostic
dictionary values. The new API (diagnostic_display) takes a
Dbus iterator which has been entered into a dictionary and
prints out each key and value. A mapping struct was defined
which maps keys to types and units. For simple cases the mapping
will consist of a dbus type character and a units string,
e.g. dBm, Kbit/s etc. For more complex printing which requires
processing the value the 'units' void* cant be set to a
function which can be custom written to handle the value.

The information requested with GetDiagnostics will now appear in
the "station <iface> show" command. If IWD is not connected, or
there is no diagnostic interface (older IWD version) 'show' will
behave as it always has, only showing scanning/connected.
Readline uses the characters \001 and \002 to mark the start and end
of zero-length character sequnces in the prompt before prompt
expansion. Without these characters the input point can become offset
from the visual end of the prompt when performing some actions.
When the client is interrupted in the middle of user input entry and the
input is masked, the terminal might be left in a weird state. Make sure
to reset the prompt if the agent is being cleaned up in the middle of an
operation.
The display refresh is automatically enabled or disabled depending on
the width of the window. This allows to avoid the incorrect display on
refresh for the small windows.
Instead of calling display(""), explicitly use the sequence of
commands to force readline to properly update its internal state
and re-display the prompt.
Doing 'ad-hoc <wlan> start_open <"network name">' returned a
"No matching method found" error because start_open called
net.connman.iwd.AdHoc.Start instead of net.connman.iwd.AdHoc.StartOpen.
Do agent registration as part of agent manager proxy creation.
This ensures that the registration call is made only after the agent
manager’s interface becomes available on the bus.
Add the newly created proxy objects into the queue before the
interface specific initialization logic takes place. This way the new
proxy objects can be used within the initialization procedures.
Previously, the parsing of the OMs objects has been done in one pass,
therefore, the proxy object's dependencies may not have been parsed at the
time when they were looked up for the dependency assignments. Now, the
parsing of the OM objects is done in two passes: 1) Create proxy objects -
one per interface and path, 2) Populate the proxy objects with properties
and assign dependencies. Therefore, we are guaranteed to have the proxy
objects created by the time they are looked up for the dependency
assignments.
These arrays should have been declared extern in the first place.

In non-interactive mode request the managed object right away and do
not wait for the service to appear. This way client can fail right
away instead of endlessly waiting in non-interactive mode.
Keep cursor's position consistent when passphrase is reaching
its maximum by adding characters in the middle of the string
The use case is very rare as not many people will attempt to
modify the masked passphrase from the middle.
Previously, CTRL+D used to cause termination of the client. Now, the
command will cancel the agent’s prompts in agent mod. In regular mode
the behavior is unchanged.
method_call and method_reply of type error are mutually exclusive. ell
will never forward method_reply messages to dbus services, so checking
for dbus_message_has_error is pointless.
Previously, command_option_get used to return NULL in the following
two scenarios: when command-line option with a such name didn’t exists
or its argument was not provided. This worked great for the cmd-line
options with the required arguments. With introduction of the cmd-line
options with no or optional arguments the function was changed to return
a boolean value indicating the existence of a such option and then, if
it had an argument - value_out variable would have been set.
Thereafter, this patch modifies the current usages of command_option_get.
Note, in these particular applications of command_option_get there is no
need to check the returned value from command_option_get, since these
options have the required arguments and we can only check if the value_out
parameter has been set or not.
Instead of returning the mode of execution, command_init now
returns whether we are done and need to exit.
Thereafter, the mode of execution is now obtain though the command
module’s API.
Due to the changed IO behavior, pasting of the secrets
into the agent prompt became impossible. The reimplemented
logic allows to add (paste) an arbitrary number of characters
into a desired position of a secret string up to its max lengths.
The deletion has also been reworked to accommodate the new behavior.
In non-interactive mode the agent managers' agent registration callback
precede the actual action command's callback such as 'connect'. iwctl
continues execution until anything else besides the agent registration
callback arrives unless the agent registration has failed.
Previously, agent was registered only for the interactive mode.
This patch enables agent registration in non-interactive mode
taking into consideration the existence of the command-line options.
Enable parsing of the command-line options by the command module.
The parsed command-line option values are stored in command_options
list and made available through the module’s public API:
command_option_get – allows querying options by name,
command_has_options – checks existence of the options.
Previously, on service disappeared event the list of the known
proxy objects was cleared, but pointers to the default entity
per command family wasn’t reset. Reset default entities for
the command families to remove the dead pointers to the deleted
proxy objects.

Switch the command pattern to match the common command scheme
where the entity name (network name) follows the command family name:
From
known-network forget <network name>
To
known-network <network name> forget
In addition, it extracts the network match by name logic into its
own function for the further reusability. In the case of ambiguity
between the network objects with the same SSID but different security
types the logic asks to specify the security type in addition
to the network name as follows:
known-network <network name.security> forget
Entering 23 characters at a prompt resulted in 9 extra characters being
added to the line. At this point, you would only be abel to backspace
until the 9th character.
It seems that claling both rl_replace_line("", 0) and rl_redisplay()
before rl_replace_line(masked_input.mask, 0) causes this to happen. Both
calls are redundant anyways as iwctl functions exactly the same without
them (plus no more bug).
