The hwsim SendFrame method requires the radio frequency which
is obtained from the hostapd config file. This adds a generic
API to get any config value from the hostapd config, as well
as a get_freq API that converts the channel number to a
frequency.
For testing SA Query, the autotest needs the ablility to force
kill (and restart) hostapd without giving it time to deauth its
stations gracefully. A method was added to the HostapdCLI class
which does a killall -9 hostapd, resets the wlnX interface,
and restarts hostapd with the same arguments as it had before.
The AuthCenter will now wait for the RX thread to start before
continuing with the test.
Also removed the non blocking option and fixed the loop to
handle a blocking recvfrom call.
If the peer detects a sync error, it sends back AUTS. The
authentication center must then re-synchronize and update
the SQN it has saved for the given ISMI.
For testing purposes, it is useful to run hlrauc.py by itself
not including it from another python script like autotests do.
Better error checking was also added as testing can result in
badly formatted data.
We need to reset self._exception after _wait_for_async_op raises an
exception, otherwise _wait_for_async_op will report that exception for
every future operation (this wasn't an issue when an exception always
meant that the test was failing and objects were torn down anyway)
In the beacon loss test try to simulate a periodic communication problem
because we don't support roaming if the AP goes away completely.
2 seconds seems to be enough to consistently trigger the beacon_loss
event without triggering a disconnect by the linux kernel or hiding the AP
from the roam scan. Also set the RSSI for that AP lower so that it is
not reselected by iwd.
Implemented milenage algorithm in hlrauc.py. Unlike EAP-SIM, the
authentication center must compute several values to give back
to the server (hostapd). This was already done by IWD as the peer
in EAP-AKA, but was also needed on the server side (HLR AuC).
Test that the AP interface and the station interface managed by iwd
can actually send and receive ethernet traffic when iwd is in the
connected state. Due to linux routing none of the high level utilities
like ping or arping can be easily used to test communication between
two interfaces of the same machine so use a method based on the
mac80211_hwsim/tools/hwsim_test.c utility in the wpa_supplicant tree
that uses a raw socket to inject unicast and broadcast frames.
Add this check in three tests of different security type connections
that simulate a single AP, and the two roaming tests with two APs.
Check that the station can't communicate with the other AP's interface.
Sometimes iwd will take a while to register its dbus name. The python
class already waits for the name to appear on dbus if iwd is being
launched from python, do this also if iwd was already launched by the
test-runner. My use case was when running iwd under valgrind in which
case it runs slower.
Modify AsyncOpAbstract._wait_for_async_op and
IWD.wait_for_object_condition to call context.iteration() in the
blocking mode instead of calling context.pending() every 0.01s. This
gets rid of busy-waiting and also ensures that the condition is checked
after every single dbus (or other) event. This way a condition that
potentially occurs for less than 0.01s can be reliably waited for.
Make the HostapdCLI class non-static so that each objects corresponds
to a hostapd instance on one network interface (this is independent of
whether the AP instances use one or separate hostapd processes)
