Once we've found the provisioning BSS create the P2P-Client interface
that we're going to use for the actual provisioning and the final P2P
connection.
Some devices (a Wi-Fi Display dongle in my case) will send us Probe
Requests and wait for a response before they send us the GO
Negotiation Request that we're waiting for after the peer initially
replied with "Fail: Information Not Available" to our GO Negotiation
attempt. Curiously this specific device I tested would even accept
a Probe Response with a mangled body such that the IE sequence couldn't
be parsed.
Handle the scenario where the peer's P2P state machine doesn't know
whether a connection has been authorized by the user and needs some time
to ask the user or a higher software layer whether to accept a
connection. In that case their GO Negotiation Response to our GO
Negotiation Request will have the status code "Fail: Information Not
Available" and we need to give the peer 120s to start a new GO
Negotiation with us. In this patch we handle the GO Negotiation
responder side where we parse the Request frame, build and send the
Response and finally parse the Confirmation. The existing code so far
only did the initiator side.
Parse the GO Negotiation Response frame and if no errors found send the
GO Negotiation Confirmation. If that gets ACKed wait for the GO to set
up the group.
Add net.connman.iwd.SimpleConfiguration interfaces to peer objects on
DBus and handle method calls. Building and transmitting the actual
action frames to start the connection sequence is done in the following
commits.
Add some of the Device Discovery logic and the DBus API. Device
Discovery is documented as having three states: the Scan Phase, the Find
Phase and the Listen State.
This patch adds the Scan Phase and the next patch adds the Listen State,
which will happen sequentially in a loop until discovery is stopped.
The Find Phase, which is documented as happening at the beginning of the
Discovery Phase, is incorporated into the Scan Phases. The difference
between the two is that Find Phase scans all of the supported channels
while the Scan Phase only scans the three "social" channels. In
practical terms the Find Phase would discover existing groups, which may
operate on any channel, while the Scan Phase will only discover P2P
Devices -- peers that are not in a group yet. To cover existing groups,
we add a few "non-social" channels to each of our active scans
implementing the Scan Phases.
Implement the Enabled property on device interface. The P2P device is
currently disabled on startup but automatically enabling the P2P device
can be considered.
