This removes all the duplicated code where the interfaces are iterated
and the radio/hostapd instances are created. Instead the two new APIs
are used to get each instance, e.g.:
hapd = HostapdCLI(config='ssid.conf')
radio = hwsim.get_radio('radX')
There is a common interface lookup in many tests in order to initialize
the HostapdCLI object e.g.:
for intf in hostapd_map.values():
if intf.config == 'ssidOWE.conf':
hapd = HostapdCLI(intf)
break
Instead of having to do this in every test, HostapdCLI will now
optionally take a config file (config=<file>). The interface object
will still be prefered (i.e. supplying an interface will not even
check the config file) as to not break existing tests. But if only
a config file is supplied the lookup is done internally.
There are some tests that do still need the interface, as they do
an interface lookup to initialize both hostapd and hwsim at the
same time.
The start_ap method was raising potential dbus errors before converting
them to an IWD error type. This is due to dbus.Set() not taking an error
handler. The only way to address this is to catch the error, convert it
and raise the converted error.
Running autotests with native hardware will not work on tests which
depend on the hwsim python API (since hwsim will not be running).
For these tests, it will now be required that they specify:
needs_hwsim=1
This allows the test to be skipped when running with native hardware
rather than the test failing with a python exception.
This new test was merged during the time when testutil was not working
properly, so it was never verified to work with respect to testutil
(testing for 'connected' has always worked).
Since testFILS has 2 hostapd interfaces test_interface_connected was
defaulting to the incorrect interface for the SHA384 test. Now, the
explicit interfaces are passed in when checking for connectivity.
Don't use del wd to dereference the IWD instance at the end of the function
where it has been defined in the first place as at this point wd is about
to have its reference count decreased anyway (the variable's scope is
ending) so it's pointless (but didn't hurt).
Relying on the __del__ destructor to kill the IWD process in those tests
it has been started in the constructor is a bit of a hack in the first
place, because the destructor is called on garbage collection and even
through CPython does this on the refcount reaching 0, this is not
documented and there's no guideline on when it should happen or if it
should happen at all. So it could be argued that we should keep the del
wd statemenets to be able to easily replace all of them with a call to a
new method. But most of them are not placed so that they're guaranteed
to happen on test success or failure. It would probably be easier to do
this and other housekeeping in a base class and make the tests its
subclasses. Also some of these tests don't really need to launch iwd
themselves, since IWD now tracks changes in the known network files I
think IWD only really needs to be killed between tests when main.conf
changes.
In the tests that only want to iterate over the hostapd interfaces,
simplify the pattern of walking through the whole wiphy_map tree by
instead using the hostapd_map variable which is already filtered to only
contain hostapd interfaces.
For the interface connectivity tests obtain the lists of interfaces in
use directly from the IWD class, which has the current list from DBus
properties.
The hostapd_map dictionary is indexed by the interface name so there's
no point iterating over it to find that entry whose name matches, we can
look up by the name directly. Simplify code.
In the test utilties updated the wiphy_map struct built from the
TEST_WIPHY_LIST variable to parse the new format and to use a new
structure where each wiphy is a namedtuple and each interface under it
also contains a reference to that wiphy. The 'use' field is now
assigned to the wiphy instead of to the interface.
The AdHoc methods used to miss the change in properties
on AdHoc interface. To address the race condition, we
subscribe 'PropertiesChanged' signal first and then do
GetAll properties call. This way we are not missing
'PropertiesChanged' signal in between these calls.
Previously, the WPS tests have shared a single instance of iwd
among themselves. This approach didn’t allow to identify which
tests have passed and which failed. The new solution makes WPS
tests independent from each other by creating a new instance
of iwd for each one of them.
The simplest way to test this was to create a new AP, where
max_num_sta=1. This only allows a single STA to connect to this AP.
We connect a device to this AP, then try and connect with another.
This results in hostapd failing with DENIED_NO_MORE_STAS, which will
cause a temporary blacklist. We can then disconnect both devices,
and reconnect the device that previously got denied. If it connects
then we know the blacklist only persisted for that earlier connection.
This is a VERY simple test for HT/VHT. Since there are so many potential
options in the IE this really just tests that drops in RSSI will cause
IWD to choose a different BSS, even if that means choosing HT over VHT,
or even basic rates over HT/VHT.
SAE has a clogging test which requires 4 radios to all simultaneously
connect. All the other tests are only using one of these radios, so
in these tests we explicitly disconnect these devices preventing them
from autoconnecting.
Since the EAP-PWD fragmentation test uses group 19 there is test
coverage there for that group. This changes connection_test to use
group 20 instead of 19.
When using --valgrind, you must also use --verbose iwd, and, depending
on the tests you may also need to include pytests in the verbose flag.
Since anyone using --valgrind definitely wants to see valgrind info
printed they should not need to enable verbose printing. Also, manually
parsing valgrind prints with IWD prints mixed throughout is a nightmare
even for a single test.
This patch uses valgrind's --log-file flag, which is directed to
/tmp/valgrind.log. After the tests runs we can print out this file.
