In many cases the pairwise and group cipher information is not the only
information needed from the BSS RSN/WPA elements in order to make a
decision. For example, th MFPC/MFPR bits might be needed, or
pre-authentication capability bits, group management ciphers, etc.
This patch refactors bss_get_supported_ciphers into the more general
scan_bss_get_rsn_info function
Fix autoconnect trying to connect to networks never used before as found
by Tim Kourt. Update the comments to be consistent with the use of the
is_known field and the docs, in that a Known Network is any network that
has a config file in the iwd storage, and an autoconnect candidate is a
network that has been connected to before.
Use the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interfaces on objects with
properties and drop the old style GetProperty/SetProperty methods on
individual interfaces. Agent and KnownNetworks have no properties at
this time so don't add org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interfaces.
This also fixes a potential buffer overflow since the ssid was cast to a
string inside network_create. However, ssid is a buffer of 32 bytes,
and would not be null-terminated in the case of a 32-byte SSID.
Note that the autoconnect_list may still contain the network. Currently
only the top entry from the list is ever used and only on
new_scan_results(), i.e. at the same time the list is being created.
If at some point it becomes part of actual device state it needs to also
be reset when a network is being forgotten.
network_info gets a is_known flag that is used for the
GetOrderedNetworks tracking and to implement the KnownNetworks
interface - loading of the list of known networks on startup and
forgetting networks.
For simplicity and future use (possibly performance), every struct network
gets a pointer to a network_info structure, there's one network_info for
every network being by any interface, not only known networks. The SSID
and security type information is removed from struct network because the
network_info holds that information.
network_info also gets a seen_count field to count how many references
from network.info fields it has, so as to fix the removal of
network_info structures. Previously, once they were added to the
networks list, they'd stay there forever possibly skewing the network
ranking results.
This also fixed the network ranking used by GetOrderedNetwork which
wasn't working due to a missing assignment of *index in
network_find_info also triggering valgrind alerts.
A function that calculates a new rank type to order all networks
currently seen by a netdev. The order is designed for displaying the
list to user so that the networks most likely to be wanted by the user
are first on the list.
Since the rankmod value only makes sense for autoconnectable networks,
change network_rankmod to return an indication of whether the rankmod is
valid as a boolean instead of as a double, as discussed before.
Make sure networks of all 4 security types have a settings file created
or updated with a new modification time on a successful connect so that
autoconnect and network sorting works for networks other than PSK too.
By doing this on storage_network_touch failure we make sure we don't
overwrite anything dropped into the settings directory while we were
connecting.
for network_seen and network_connected
Only accept a struct network pointer instead of separately the ssid and
security type. This is needed so we can do some more simplification in
the next patch by having access to the network struct.
It looks like with multiple netdev seeing the same networks we'd create
multiple network_info structures for each network. Since the
"networks" list (of network_info structs) is global that's probbaly not
the intention here.
