- Setting the IP address was resulting in an error:
Error: any valid prefix is expected rather than "wln58".
This is fixed by reordering the arguments with the IP address first
- Remove the sleep, and use non_block_wait to wait for the IPv6 address
to be set.
All tests which could avoid calling scan() directly have been
changed to use the 'full_scan' argument to get_ordered_network.
This was done because of unreliable scanning behavior on slower
systems, like VMs. If we get unlucky with the scheduler some beacons
are not received in time and in turn scan results are missing.
Using full_scan=True works around this issue by repeatedly scanning
until the SSID is found.
On some systems the default radvd pid file location is not accessible.
Specify it to be under /tmp instead.
While there, enable full radvd debug output so it is logged when
test-runner is invoked with the --log option.
This changes all tests to use the default get_ordered_network behavior
rather than some custom or incorrect logic. Any use of
scan_if_needed=True has been removed since this is now the default.
Also any explicit scanning has been removed for tests which do not
require it (where the default behavior is good enough).
With the addition of connect_bssid/roam very few tests actually
require hwsim. Since hwsim can lead to problems with scan results
its best to have it off by default and have each test that needs
it explicitly turn it on.
Tests which previously turned it off have had that option removed.
Tests that do require hwsim still are vulnerable to scan result
problems, so for these tests beacon_int was added to the hostapd
config which seems to help with reliability somewhat.
This file was not included when testNetconfig was introduced
and is required. My system was working fine as it was in my
local tree but has been missing and not passing for others.
After the test-runner re-write many tests were left with
stale options that are no longer used at all. These were
periodically getting removed as changes were made to
individual tests, but its apparent now that a tree wide
removal was needed.
Tests netconfig with a static configuration, as well as tests ACD
functionality.
The test has two IWD radios which will eventually use the same IP.
One is configured statically, one will receive the IP via DHCP.
The static client sets its IP first and begins using it. Then the
DHCP client is started. Since ACD in a DHCP client is configured
to use its address indefinitely, the static client *should* give
up its address.
If running multiple tests testNetconfig would fail due to the
hardcoded wln0 in the dhcpd.conf file. dhcpd can actually start
by passing in the interface to the run command rather than
inside the config file.
The interface was hard coded to wln0 which works when running single
tests but not when running multiple. Instead use the actual ifname
that hostapd is using.
Tests that DHCP using IWD's internal netconfig functions properly.
The actual IP address assignment is not verified, but since IWD does
not signal the connection as successful unless DHCP succeeds we
can assume it was successful by checking that the device is connected.
The process of actually starting dhcpd and configuring the interfaces
is quite simple so it was left in the autotest itself. If (or when)
more tests require IP capabilities (p2p, FILS, etc) this could be
moved into test-runner itself and be made common. The reason I did not
put it in there now is a) because this is the only test and b) more
complex DHCP cases are likely to develop and may require more than this
simplistic setup (like multiple APs/interfaces)
