When a wifi interface is added/removed to/from a bridge, a
RTM_NEW/DELLINK event is issued. This is the same event used to signal
when an interface is created/deleted.
For this reason the event generated by the bridge code has to be
properly distinguished and handled accordingly. Failing to do so will
result in inconsistencies in iwd which will think an interface has been
deleted when it was actually not.
Detect incoming NEW/DELLINK bridge events and reacts accordingly. For
now, this simply means printing a simple message, as there is no
special logic in iwd for this yet.
If Control Port over NL80211 is not supported, open up a PAE socket and
stuff it into an l_io on the netdev object. Install a read handler on
the l_io and call __eapol_rx_packet as needed.
With the introduction of Control Port Over NL80211 feature, the
transport details need to be moved out of eapol and into netdev.c.
Whether a given WiFi hardware supports transfer of Control Port packets
over NL80211 is Wiphy and kernel version related, so the transport
decisions need to be made elsewhere.
handshake_state_install_ptk triggers a call to
netdev_set_pairwise_key_cb which calls netdev_connect_ok, so don't call
netdev_connect_ok after handshake_state_install_ptk. This doesn't fix
any specific problem though.
SA Query procedure is used when an unprotected disassociate frame
is received (with frame protection enabled). There are two code
paths that can occur when this disassociate frame is received:
1. Send out SA Query and receive a response from the AP within a
timeout. This means that the disassociate frame was not sent
from the AP and can be ignored.
2. Send out SA Query and receive no response. In this case it is
assumed that the AP went down ungracefully and is now back up.
Since frame protection is enabled, you must re-associate with
the AP.
When the 4-Way Handshake is done eapol.c calls netdev_set_tk, then
optionally netdev_set_gtk and netdev_set_igtk. To support the no group
key option send the final SET STATION enabling the controlled port
inside the callback for the netdev_set_tk operation which always means
the end of a 4-Way Handshake rather than in the netdev_set_gtk callback.
The spec says exactly that the controlled port is enabled at the end of
the 4-Way Handshake.
The netlink operations will still be queued in the same order because
the netdev_set_tk/netdev_set_gtk/netdev_set_igtk calls happen in one
main loop iteration but even if the order changed it wouldn't matter.
On failure of any of the three operations netdev_setting_keys_failed
gets called and the remaining operations are cancelled.
The l_queue_find() to find other watches matching the new prefix
needs to be before the watchlist_link(), otherwise the prefix will
match itself and "registered" is always true.
Rename netdev_register_frame to netdev_frame_watch_add and expose to be
usable outside of netdev.c, add netdev_frame_watch_remove also. Update
the Neighbor Report handling which was the only user of
netdev_register_frame.
The handler is now simpler because we use a lookup list with all the
prefixes and individual frame handlers only see the frames matching the
right prefix. This is also useful for the future Access-Point mode.
Refactor management frame structures to take into account optional
presence of some parts of the header:
* drop the single structure for management header and body since
the body offset is variable.
* add mmpdu_get_body to locate the start of frame body.
* drop the union of different management frame type bodies.
* prefix names specific to management frames with "mmpdu" instead
of "mpdu" including any enums based on 802.11-2012 section 8.4.
* move the FC field to the mmpdu_header structure.
If the kernel device driver or the kernel nl80211 version doesn't
support the new RSSI threshold list CQM monitoring, implement similar
logic in iwd with periodic polling. This is only active when an RSSI
agent is registered to receive the events. I tested this with the same
testRSSIAgent autotests that tests the driver-side rssi monitoring
except with all timeouts multiplied by ~20.
Function to allow netdev.c to explicitly tell eapol.c whether to expect
EAP / 4-Way handshake. This is to potentially make the code more
descriptive, until now we'd look at sm->handshake->ptk_complete to see
if a new PTK was needed.
A 4-Way handshake is required on association to an AP except after FT.
Modify netdev_get_iftype, which was until now unused, and add
netdev_set_iftype. Don't skip interfaces with types other than STATION
on startup, instead reset the type to STATION in device.c.
netdev_get_iftype is modified to use our own interface type enum to
avoid forcing users to include "nl80211.h".
Note that setting an interface UP and DOWN wouldn't generally reset the
iftype to STATION. Another process may still change the type while iwd
is running and iwd would not detect this as it would detect another
interface setting interface DOWN, not sure how far we want to go in
monitoring all of the properties this way.
Allow attempts to connect to a new AP using the Reassociation frame even
if netdev->operational is false. This is needed if we want to continue
an ongoing roam attempt after the original connection broke and will be
needed when we start using cached PMKSAs in the future.
There are situations including after beacon loss and during FT where the
cfg80211 will detect we're now disconnected (in some cases will send a
Deauthenticate frame too) and generate this event, or the driver may do
this. For example in ieee80211_report_disconnect in net/mac80211/mlme.c
will (through cfg80211) generate a CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE followed by a
CMD_DISCONNECT.
The kernel doesn't reset the netdev's state to disconnected when it
sends us a beacon loss event so we can't either unless we automatically
send a disconnect command to the kernel.
It seems the handling of beacon loss depends on the driver. For example
in mac80211 only after N beacon loss events (default 7) a probe request is
sent to the AP and a deauthenticate packet is sent if no probe reply is
receiver within T (default 500ms).
CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE is not available for FullMAC based cards. We already
use CMD_CONNECT in the non-FT cases, which works on all cards. However,
for some reason we kept using CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE instead of CMD_DISCONNECT.
For FT (error) cases, keep using CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE.
Certain WiFi drivers do not support using CMD_SET_STATION (e.g.
mwifiex). It is not completely clear how such drivers handle the
AUTHORIZED state, but they don't seem to take it into account. So for
such drivers, ignore the -ENOTSUPP error return from CMD_SET_STATION.
These flags are documented in RFC2863 and kernel's
Documentation/networking/operstates.txt. Operstate doesn't have any
siginificant effect on normal connectivity or on our autotests because
it is not used by the kernel except in some rare cases but it is
supposed to affect some userspace daemons that watch for RTM_NEWLINK
events, so I believe we *should* set them according to this
documentation. Changes:
* There's no point setting link_mode or operstate of the netdev when
we're bringing the admin state DOWN as that overrides operstate.
* Instead of numerical values for link_mode use the if.h defines.
* Set IF_OPER_UP when association succeeds also in the Fast Transition
case. The driver will have set carrier off and then on so the
operstate should be IF_OPER_DORMANT at this point and needs to be
reset to UP.
Add an methods and an event using the new
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST kernel feature to request RSSI
monitoring with notifications only when RSSI moves from one of the N
intervals requested to another.
device.c will call netdev_set_rssi_report_levels to request
NETDEV_EVENT_RSSI_LEVEL_NOTIFY events every time the RSSI level changes,
level meaning one of the intervals delimited by the threshold values
passed as argument. Inside the event handler it can call
netdev_get_rssi_level to read the new level.
There's no fallback to periodic polling implemented in this patch for
the case of older kernels and/or the driver not supporting
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST.
netdev_reassociate transitions to another BSS without FT. Similar to
netdev_connect but uses reassociation instead of association and
requires and an existing connection.
Handle the changes of interface address in RTNL New Link messages
similarly to the name changes, emit a NETDEV_WATCH_EVENT_ADDRESS_CHANGE
event and a propety change on dbus.
Note this can only happen when the interface is down so it doesn't
break anything but we need to handle it anyway.
Right now the code checks for is_rsn to wait for the 4-way handshake and
sends the NETDEV_EVENT_4WAY_HANDSHAKE. However, is_rsn condition is not
true for WSC connections since they do not set an RSN field. Still,
they are EAP based handshakes and should be treated in the same manner.
We relax the is_rsn check to instead check for netdev->sm. Currently
netdev->sm is only non-NULL if handshake->own_ie field is not NULL or in
the case of eap-wsc connections.
Make sure that the Neighbor Report timeout is cancelled when connection
breaks or device is being destroyed, and call the callback. Add an
errno parameter to the callback to indicate the cause.
Validate the fourth message of the fast transition sequence and save the
new keys and state as current values in the netdev object. The
FT-specific IE validation that was already present in the initial MD
is moved to a new function.
