This patch adds two new options to a network provisioning file:
AlwaysRandomizeAddress={true,false}
If true, IWD will randomize the MAC address on each connection to this
network. The address does not persists between connections, any new
connection will result in a different MAC.
AddressOverride=<MAC>
If set, the MAC address will be set to <MAC> assuming its a valid MAC
address.
These two options should not be used together, and will only take effect
if [General].AddressRandomization is set to 'network' in the IWD
config file.
If neither of these options are set, and [General].AddressRandomization
is set to 'network', the default behavior remains the same; the MAC
will be generated deterministically on a per-network basis.
If a scan is requested during the middle of a connection we should
return busy instead of attempting the scan. The kernel ends up coming
back with not supported in this case, which is misleading and
difficult to debug.
For Radio Resource Management (RRM) we will need access to the currently
connected BSS as well as the last scan results in order to do certain
kinds of requested measurements.
On EAP events, call the handshake_event handler with the new event type
HANDSHAKE_EVENT_EAP_NOTIFY isntead of the eapol_event callback.
This allows the handler to be set before calling
netdev_connect/netdev_connect_wsc. It's also in theory more type-safe
because we don't need the cast in netdev_connect_wsc anymore.
Convert the handshake event callback type to use variable argument
list to allow for more flexibility in event-specific arguments
passed to the callbacks.
Note the uint16_t reason code is promoted to an int when using variable
arguments so va_arg(args, int) has to be used.
Previously, station state 'connected' used to identify an interface associated
with AP. With the introduction of netconfig, an interface is assumed to be
connected after the IP addresses have been assigned to it. If netconfig is
disabled, the behavior remains unchanged.
As a first step to enable the usage of netconfig in ead and
prospective transition to be a part of ell, the public API for
creation and destruction of the netconfig objects has been
renamed and changed. Instead of hiding the netconfig objects inside
of netconfig module, the object is now passed back to the caller.
The internal queue of netconfig objects remains untouched, due
to limitations in ell’s implementation of rtnl. After the proper
changes are done to ell, netconfig_list is expected to be removed
from netconfig module.
If neighbor reports are unavailable, or the report yielded no
results we can quickly scan for only known frequencies. This
changes the original behavior where we would do a full scan
in this case.
Station was building up the HS20 elements manually. Now we can
use this new API and let network take care of the complexity
of building network specific vendor IEs.
Since hotspot networks may require ANQP the autoconnect loop needed to
be delayed until after the ANQP results came back and the network
objects were updated. If there are hotspot networks in range ANQP will
be performed and once complete autoconnect will begin for all networks
including hotspots. If no hotspots are in range autoconnect will
proceed as it always has.
Note: Assuming hotspots are in range this will introduce some delay
in autoconnecting to any network since ANQP must come back. The full
plan is to intellegently decide when and when not to do ANQP in order
to minimize delays but since ANQP is disabled by default the behavior
introduced with this patch is acceptable.
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.
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.
The HS20 indication element should always be included during
(Re)Association per the spec. This removes the need for a
dedicated boolean, and now the hs20_ie can be used instead.
Per the hotspot 2.0 spec, if a matching roaming consortium OI is
found it should be added to the (Re)Association request. vendor_ies
can now be provided to netdev_connect, which get appended to the IE
attribute.
The ifindex is used to index the netdevs in the system (wlan, ethernet,
etc.) but we can also do wifi scanning on interfaces that have no
corresponding netdev object, like the P2P-device virtual interfaces.
Use the wdev id's to reference interfaces, the nl80211 api doesn't care
whether we use a NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX or NL80211_ATTR_WDEV. Only
wireless interfaces have a wdev id.
After a scan, station can now pause future scans and start ANQP requests
to discover Hotspot's NAI realm. This lets us check if the AP's NAI realm
matches any stored hotspot configuration files. If so we can connect to
this network. If the network provides an HESSID and a matching one is
found in a hotspot provisioning file we can skip ANQP and directly connect
as this is expected to be our 'home network'
The handshake object had 4 setters for authenticator/supplicant IE.
Since the IE ultimately gets put into the same buffer, there really
only needs to be a single setter for authenticator/supplicant. The
handshake object can deal with parsing to decide what kind of IE it
is (WPA or RSN).
This adds some checks for the FT_OVER_FILS AKMs in station and netdev
allowing the FILS-FT AKMs to be selected during a connection.
Inside netdev_connect_event we actually have to skip parsing the IEs
because FILS itself takes care of this (needs to handle them specially)
FT-over-DS is a way to do a Fast BSS Transition using action frames for
the authenticate step. This allows a station to start a fast transition
to a target AP while still being connected to the original AP. This,
in theory, can result in less carrier downtime.
The existing ft_sm_new was removed, and two new constructors were added;
one for over-air, and another for over-ds. The internals of ft.c mostly
remain the same. A flag to distinguish between air/ds was added along
with a new parser to parse the action frames rather than authenticate
frames. The IE parsing is identical.
Netdev now just initializes the auth-proto differently depending on if
its doing over-air or over-ds. A new TX authenticate function was added
and used for over-ds. This will send out the IEs from ft.c with an
FT Request action frame.
The FT Response action frame is then recieved from the AP and fed into
the auth-proto state machine. After this point ft-over-ds behaves the
same as ft-over-air (associate to the target AP).
Some simple code was added in station.c to determine if over-air or
over-ds should be used. FT-over-DS can be beneficial in cases where the
AP is directing us to roam, or if the RSSI falls below a threshold.
It should not be used if we have lost communication to the AP all
(beacon lost) as it only works while we can still talk to the original
AP.
wiphy_select_akm needed to be updated to take a flag, which can be
set to true if there are known reauth keys for this connection. If
we have reauth keys, and FILS is available we will choose it.
