In certain cases the autoconnect portion of each subtest was connecting
to the network so fast that the check for obj.scanning was never successful
since IWD was already connected (and in turn not scanning). Since the
autoconnect path will wait for the device to be connected there really isn't
a reason to wait for any scanning conditions. The normal connect path does
need to wait for scanning though, and for this we can now use the new
scan_if_needed parameter to get_ordered_networks.
There is a very common block of code inside many autotests
which goes something like:
device.scan()
condition = 'obj.scanning'
wd.wait_for_object_condition(device, condition)
condition = 'not obj.scanning'
wd.wait_for_object_condition(device, condition)
network = device.get_ordered_network('an-ssid')
When you see the same pattern in nearly all the tests this shows
we need a helper. Basic autotests which merely check that a
connection succeeded should not need to write the same code again
and again. This code ends up being copy-pasted which can lead to
bugs.
There is also a code pattern which attempts to get ordered
networks, and if this fails it scans and tries again. This, while
not optimal, does prevent unneeded scanning by first checking if
any networks already exist.
This patch solves both the code reuse issue as well as the recovery
if get_ordered_network(s) fails. A new optional parameter was
added to get_ordered_network(s) which is False by default. If True
get_ordered_network(s) will perform a scan if the initial call
yields no networks. Tests will now be able to simply call
get_ordered_network(s) without performing a scan before hand.
These values were meant only to force IWD's BSS preference but
since the RSSI's were so low in some cases this caused a roam
immediately after connecting. This patch changes the RSSI values
to prevent a roam from happening.
Previously iwmon was running per-test, which would jumble any subtests
together into the same log file making it hard to parse. Now create
a separate directory for each subtest and put the monitor log and
pcap there.
In this situation the kernel is sending a low RSSI event which netdev
picks up, but since we set netdev->connected so early the event is
forwarded to station before IWD has fully connected. Station then
tries to get a neighbor report, which may fail and cause a known
frequency scan. If this is a new network the frequency scan tries to
get any known frequencies in network_info which will be unset and
cause a segfault.
This can be avoided by only sending RSSI events when netdev->operational
is set rather than netdev->connected.
Using mac80211_hwsim can sometimes result in out of order messages
coming from the kernel. Since mac80211_hwsim immediately sends out
frames and the kernel keeps command responses in a separate queue,
bad scheduling can result in these messages being out of order.
In some cases we receive Auth/Assoc frames before the response to
our original CMD_CONNECT. This causes autotests to fail randomly,
some more often than others.
To fix this we can introduce a small delay into hwsim. Just a 1ms
delay makes the random failures disappear in the tests. This delay
is also makes hwsim more realistic since actual hardware will always
introduce some kind of delay when sending or receiving frames.
Some full mac cards don't like being given a FT AKM when connecting.
From an API perspective this should be supported, but in practice
these cards behave differently and some do no accept FT AKMs. Until
this becomes more stable any cards not supporting Auth/Assoc commands
(full mac) will not connect using FT AKMs.
This callback gets called way to many times to have a debug print
in the location that it was. Instead only print if a NEW wiphy is
found, and also print the name/id.
Save the value of the watchlist pointer at the beginning of the
WATCHLIST_NOTIFY_* macros as if it was a function. This will fix a
frame-xchg.c scenario in which one of the watch callback removes the
frame watch group and the memory where the watchlist pointer was
becomes unallocated but the macro still needs to access it ones or
twice while it destroys the watchlist. Another option would be for
the pointer to be copied in frame-xchg.c itself.
Use netconfig.c functions to unconditionally run DHCP negotiation,
fail the connection setup if DHCP fails. Only report connection success
after netconfig returns.
Add the final two steps of the connection setup, and corresponding
disconnect logic:
* the WSC connection to the GO to do the client provisioning,
* the netdev_connect call to use the provisioned credentials for the
final WPA2 connection.
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.
For wired authentication the protocol version used in the EAPOL
packets sent by ead is fixed to 802.1X-2004 (2) but some switches
implementing only 802.1X-2001 erroneously ignore these packets.
As ead only sends EAPOL-Start and EAP-Packet packets and these have
not changed between 802.1X-2001 and 802.1X-2004 there should be
no reason to use 802.1X-2004. Hence, this changes ead to always use
802.1X-2001 (1) instead.
Switches implementing newer versions of 802.1X should not have
problems responding to packets using the original version.
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.
When a new wiphy is added query its regulatory domain and listen for
nl80211 regulatory notifications to be able to provide current
regulatory country code through the new wiphy_get_reg_domain_country().
Implement the Enabled property on device interface. The P2P device is
currently disabled on startup but automatically enabling the P2P device
can be considered.
With the previous commit, wscutil now depends on ie.h. Unfortunately,
wired also includes eap-wsc and wscutil in the build, but not ie, which
results in a link-time failure.
Fix this by droppig eap-wsc and wscutil from wired. There's no reason
that ethernet authentication would ever use the WiFi Protected Setup
authentication.
SOL_NETLINK is used since commit
87a198111a resulting in the following
build failure with glibc < 2.24:
src/frame-xchg.c: In function 'frame_watch_group_io_read':
src/frame-xchg.c:328:27: error: 'SOL_NETLINK' undeclared (first use in this function)
if (cmsg->cmsg_level != SOL_NETLINK)
^
This failure is due to glibc that doesn't support SOL_NETLINK before
version 2.24 and

'Connected' property of the network object is set before the connection
attempt is made and does not indicate a connection success. Therefore,
use device status property to identify the connection status of the device.
