The len parameter was only used so it could be validated against ie[1],
but since it was not checked to be > 2, it must have been validated
already, the check was redundant. In any case all users directly
passed ie[1] as len anyway. This makes it consistent with the ie
parsers and builders which didn't require a length.
Split eapol_start into two calls, one to register the state machine so
that the PAE read handler knows not to discard frames for that ifindex,
and eapol_start to actually start processing the frames. This is needed
because, as per the comment in netdev.c, due to scheduling the PAE
socket read handler may trigger before the CMD_CONNECT event handler,
which needs to parse the FTE from the Associate Response frame and
supply it to the eapol SM before it can do anything with the message 1
of 4 of the FT handshake.
Another issue is that depending on the driver or timing, the underlying
link might not be marked as 'ready' by the kernel. In this case, our
response to Message 1 of the 4-way Handshake is written and accepted by
the kernel, but gets dropped on the floor internally. Which leads to
timeouts if the AP doesn't retransmit.
We used to open a socket for each wireless interface. This patch uses a
single socket with an attached BPF to handle all EAPoL traffic via a
single file descriptor.
Instead of one global protocol_version, we now store it inside eapol_sm.
This allows us to use the same protocol version for our response as the
request from the authenticator.
For unit tests where we had protocol version mismatches, a new method is
introduced to explicitly set the protocol version to use.
Instead of passing the user_data parameter in every __eapol_rx_packet
call to be used by EAPOL in all tx_packet calls, add
eapol_sm_set_tx_user_data function that sets the value of user_data for
all subsequent tx_packet calls. This way tx_packet can be called from
places that are not necessarily inside an __eapol_rx_packet call.
Instead of passing in the RSN/WPA elements, simply pass in the
configured cipher. This will make the implementation of the install_gtk
callback much simpler.
