Certain flags (for example, NLA_F_NESTED) are ORed with the netlink
attribute type identifier prior to being sent on the wire. Such flags
need to be masked off and not taken into consideration when attribute
type is being compared against known values.
The workaround for Cisco APs reporting an operating class of zero
is still a bug that remains in Cisco equipment. This is made even
worse with the introduction of 6GHz where the channel numbers
overlap with both 2.4 and 5GHz bands. This makes it impossible to
definitively choose a frequency given only a channel number.
To improve this workaround and cover the 6GHz band we can calculate
a frequency for each band and see what is successful. Then append
each frequency we get to the list. This will result in more
frequencies scanned, but this tradeoff is better than potentially
avoiding a roam to 6GHz or high order 5ghz channel numbers.

QEMU now seems to complain that 'no-hpet' and 'no-acpi' command line
arguments are unrecognized.
l_genl class has nice ways of discovering and requesting families. The
genl functionality has been added after the iwmon skeleton was created,
but it is now time to migrate to using these APIs.
This attribute is actually an array of signed 32 bit integers and it
was being treated as a single integer. This would work until more
than one threshold was set, then it would fail to parse it.
After the station state changes in DPP setting autoconnect=True was
causing DPP to stop prior to being able to scan for the network.
Instead we can start autoconnect earlier so we aren't toggling the
property while DPP is running.
Prior to now the DPP state was required to be disconnected before
DPP would start. This is inconvenient for the user since it requires
extra state checking and/or DBus method calls. Instead model this
case like WSC and issue a disconnect to station if DPP is requested
to start.
The other conditions on stopping DPP are also preserved and no
changes to the configurator role have been made, i.e. being
disconnected while configuring still stops DPP. Similarly any
connection made during enrolling will stop DPP.
It should also be noted that station's autoconfigure setting is also
preserved and set back to its original value upon DPP completing.
Gets the current autoconenct setting. This is not the current
autoconnect state. Will be used in DPP to reset station's autoconnect
setting back to what it was prior to DPP, in case of failure.
In order to slightly rework the DPP state machine to handle
automatically disconnecting (for enrollees) functions need to be
created that isolate everything needed to start DPP/PKEX in case
a disconnect needs to be done first.
If valgrind didn't report any issues, don't dump the logs. This
makes the test run a lot easier to look at without having to scroll
through pages of valgrind logs that provide no value.
When the survey code was added it neglected to add the same
cancelation logic that existed for the GET_SCAN call, i.e. if
a scan was canceled and there was a pending GET_SURVEY to the
kernel that needs to be canceled, and the request cleaned up.
Fixes: 35808debae ("scan: use GET_SURVEY for SNR calculation in ranking")
IPv6 address entry was not updated to use display_table_row which led to
a shifted line in table, as shown below:

This patch aligns IPv6 address line with other lines in the table.

testEncryptedProfiles:
- This would occationally fail because the test is expecting
to explicitly connect but after the first failed connection
autoconnect takes over and its a race to connect.
testPSK-roam:
- Several rules were not being cleaned up which could cause
tests afterwards to fail
- The AP roam test started failing randomly because of the SNR
ranking changes. It appears that with hwsim _sometimes_ the
SNR is able to be determined which can effect the ranking. This
test assumed the two BSS's would be the same ranking but the
SNR sometimes causes this to not be true.
The wait_for_event() function allows past events to cause this
function to return immediately. This behavior is known, and
relied on for some tests. But in some cases you want to only
handle _new_ events, so we need a way to clear out prior events.
This event is not used anywhere and can be leveraged in autotesting.
Move the event to eapol_start() so it gets called unconditionally
when the 4-way handshake is started.
If a disconnect arrives at any point during the 4-way handshake or
key setting this would result in netdev sending a disconnect event
to station. If this is a reassociation this case is unhandled in
station and causes a hang as it expects any connection failure to
be handled via the reassociation callback, not a random disconnect
event.
To handle this case we can utilize netdev_disconnected() along with
the new NETDEV_RESULT_DISCONNECTED result to ensure the connect
callback gets called if it exists (indicating a pending connection)
Below are logs showing the "Unexpected disconnect event" which
prevents IWD from cleaning up its state and ultimately results in a
hang:

After adding the NETDEV_RESULT_DISCONNECTED enum, handshake failures
initiated by the AP come in via this result so the existing logic
to call network_connect_failed() was broken. We could still get a
handshake failure generated internally, so that has been preserved
(via NETDEV_RESULT_HANDSHAKE_FAILED) but a check for a 4-way
handshake timeout reason code was also added.
This new event is sent during a connection if netdev recieves a
disconnect event. This patch cleans up station to handle this
case and leave the existing NETDEV_EVENT_DISCONNECTED_BY_{AP,SME}
handling only for CONNECTED, NETCONFIG, and FW_ROAMING states.
This new result is meant to handle cases where a disconnect
event (deauth/disassoc) was received during an ongoing connection.
Whether that's during authentication, association, the 4-way
handshake, or key setting.

This code path is not exercised in the autotest but commonly does
happen in the real world. There is no associated bug with this, but
its helpful to have this event triggered in case something got
introduced in the future.
The authenticating event was not used anymore and the associating
event use was questionable (after the CMD_CONNECT callback).
No other modules actually utilize these events but they are useful
for autotests. Move these events around to map 1:1 when the kernel
sends the auth/assoc events.
There are a few values which are nice to see in debug logs. Namely
the BSS load and SNR. Both of these values may not be available
either due to the AP or local hardware limiations. Rather than print
dummy values for these refactor the print so append the values only
if they are set in the scan result.
For ranking purposes the utilization was defaulted to a valid (127)
which would not change the rank if that IE was not found in the
scan results. Historically this was printed (debug) as part of the
scan results but that was removed as it was somewhat confusing. i.e.
did the AP _really_ have a utilization of 127? or was the IE not
found?
Since it is useful to see the BSS load if that is advertised add a
flag to the scan_bss struct to indicate if the IE was present which
can be checked.
This issues a GET_SURVEY dump after scan results are available and
populates the survey information within the scan results. Currently
the only value obtained is the noise for a given frequency but the
survey results structure was created if in the future more values
need to be added.
From the noise, the SNR can be calculated. This is then used in the
ranking calculation to help lower BSS ranks that are on high noise
channels.
Parsing the flush flag for external scans was not done correctly
as it was not parsing the ATTR_SCAN_FLAGS but instead the flag
bitmap. Fix this by parsing the flags attribute, then checking if
the bit is set.
Add a nested attribute parser. For the first supported attribute
add NL80211_ATTR_SURVEY_INFO.
This allows parsing of nested attributes in the same convenient
way as nl80211_parse_attrs but allows for support of any level of
nested attributes provided that a handler is added for each.
To prep for adding a _nested() variant of this function refactor
this to act on an l_genl_attr object rather than the message itself.
In addition a handler specific to the attribute being parsed is
now passed in, with the current "handler_for_type" being renamed to
"handler_for_nl80211" that corresponds to root level attributes.
