If a netdev iftype is changed, all frame registrations are removed.
Make sure to re-register for the appropriate frame notifications in case
our iftype is switched back to 'station'. In any other iftype, no frame
watches are registered and rrm_state object is effectively dormant.
Right now, RRM is created when a new netdev is detected and its iftype
is of type station. That means that any devices that start their life
as any other iftype cannot be changed to a station and have RRM function
properly. Fix that by always creating the RRM state regardless of the
initial iftype.
In the case that a netdev is powered down, or an interface type change
occurs, the station object will be removed and any watches will be
freed.
Since rrm is created when the netdev is created and persists across
iftype and power up/down changes, it should provide a destroy callback
to station_add_state_watch so that it can be notified when the watch is
removed.
If the iftype changes, kernel silently wipes out any frame registrations
we may have registered. Right now, frame registrations are only done when
the interface is created. This can result in frame watches not being
added if the interface type is changed between station mode to ap mode
and then back to station mode, e.g.:
device wlan0 set-property Mode ap
device wlan0 set-property Mode station
Make sure to re-add frame registrations according to the mode if the
interface type is changed.
Since netdev now keeps track of iftype changes, let it call
frame_watch_wdev_remove on netdevs that it manages to clear frame
registrations that should be cleared due to an iftype change.
Note that P2P_DEVICE wdevs are not managed by any netdev object, but
since their iftype cannot be changed, they should not be affected
by this change.
And set the interface type based on the event rather than the command
callback. This allows us to track interface type changes even if they
come from outside iwd (which shouldn't happen.)
The prepare_ft patch was an intermediate to a full patch
set and was not fully tested stand alone. Its placement
actually broke FT due to handshake->aa getting overwritten
prior to netdev->prev_bssid being copied out. This caused
FT to fail with "transport endpoint not connected (-107)"
- Make sure to print the cookie information
- Don't print messages for frames we're not interested in. This is
particularly helpful when running auto-tests since frame acks from
hostapd pollute the iwd log.
Fix a regression where connection to an open network results in an
NotSupported error being returned.
Fixes: d79e883e93 ("netdev: Introduce connection types")
This makes conversions simpler. Also fixes a bug where P2P devices were
printed with an incorrect Mode value since dbus_iftype_to_string was
assuming that an iftype as defined in nl80211.h was being passed in,
while netdev was returning an enum value defined in netdev.h.
It was seen that some full mac cards/drivers do not include any
rate information with the NEW_STATION event. This was causing
the NEW_STATION event to be ignored, preventing AP mode from
working on these cards.
Since the full mac path does not even require sta->rates the
parsing can be removed completely.
It was found that if the user cancels/disconnects the agent prior to
entering credentials, IWD would get stuck and could no longer accept
any connect calls with the error "Operation already in progress".
For example exiting iwctl in the Password prompt would cause this:
iwctl
$ station wlan0 connect myssid
$ Password: <Ctrl-C>
This was due to the agent never calling the network callback in the
case of an agent disconnect. Network would wait indefinitely for the
credentials, and disallow any future connect attempts.
To fix this agent_finalize_pending can be called in agent_disconnect
with a NULL reply which behaves the same as if there was an
internal timeout and ultimately allows network to fail the connection
The 8021x offloading procedure still does EAP in userspace which
negotiates the PMK. The kernel then expects to obtain this PMK
from userspace by calling SET_PMK. This then allows the firmware
to begin the 4-way handshake.
Using __eapol_install_set_pmk_func to install netdev_set_pmk,
netdev now gets called into once EAP finishes and can begin
the final userspace actions prior to the firmware starting
the 4-way handshake:
- SET_PMK using PMK negotiated with EAP
- Emit SETTING_KEYS event
- netdev_connect_ok
One thing to note is that the kernel provides no way of knowing if
the 4-way handshake completed. Assuming SET_PMK/SET_STATION come
back with no errors, IWD assumes the PMK was valid. If not, or
due to some other issue in the 4-way, the kernel will send a
disconnect.
This adds a new type for 8021x offload as well as support in
building CMD_CONNECT.
As described in the comment, 8021x offloading is not particularly
similar to PSK as far as the code flow in IWD is concerned. There
still needs to be an eapol_sm due to EAP being done in userspace.
This throws somewhat of a wrench into our 'is_offload' cases. And
as such this connection type is handled specially.
802.1x offloading needs a way to call SET_PMK after EAP finishes.
In the same manner as set_tk/gtk/igtk a new 'install_pmk' function
was added which eapol can call into after EAP completes.
The chances were extremely low, but using l_idle_oneshot
could end up causing a invalid memory access if the netdev
went down while waiting for the disconnect idle callback.
Instead netdev can keep track of the idle with l_idle_create
and remove it if the netdev goes down prior to the idle callback.
This fixes an infinite loop issue when authenticate frames time
out. If the AP is not responding IWD ends up retrying indefinitely
due to how SAE was handling this timeout. Inside sae_auth_timeout
it was actually sending another authenticate frame to reject
the SAE handshake. This, again, resulted in a timeout which called
the SAE timeout handler and repeated indefinitely.
The kernel resend behavior was not taken into account when writing
the SAE timeout behavior and in practice there is actually no need
for SAE to do much of anything in response to a timeout. The
kernel automatically resends Authenticate frames 3 times which mirrors
IWDs SAE behavior anyways. Because of this the authenticate timeout
handler can be completely removed, which will cause the connection
to fail in the case of an autentication timeout.
This crash was caused from the disconnect_cb being called
immediately in cases where send_disconnect was false. The
previous patch actually addressed this separately as this
flag was being set improperly which will, indirectly, fix
one of the two code paths that could cause this crash.
Still, there is a situation where send_disconnect could
be false and in this case IWD would still crash. If IWD
is waiting to queue the connect item and netdev_disconnect
is called it would result in the callback being called
immediately. Instead we can add an l_idle as to allow the
callback to happen out of scope, which is what station
expects.
Prior to this patch, the crashing behavior can be tested using
the following script (or some variant of it, your system timing
may not be the same as mine).
iwctl station wlan0 disconnect
iwctl station wlan0 connect <network1> &
sleep 0.02
iwctl station wlan0 connect <network2>

The send_disconnect flag was being improperly set based only
on connect_cmd_id being zero. This does not take into account
the case of CMD_CONNECT having finished but not EAPoL. In this
case we do need to send a disconnect.
This adds a new connection type, TYPE_PSK_OFFLOAD, which
allows the 4-way handshake to be offloaded by the firmware.
Offloading will be used if the driver advertises support.
The CMD_ROAM event path was also modified to take into account
handshake offloading. If the handshake is offloaded we still
must issue GET_SCAN, but not start eapol since the firmware
takes care of this.
Until now FT was only supported via Auth/Assoc commands which barred
any fullmac cards from using FT AKMs. With PSK offload support these
cards can do FT but only when offloading is used.
In the FW scan callback eapol was being stared unconditionally which
isn't correct as roaming on open networks is possible. Instead check
that a SM exists just like is done in netdev_connect_event.
This should have been updated along with the connect and roam
event separation. Since netdev_connect_event is not being
re-used for CMD_ROAM the comment did not make sense anymore.
Still, there needs to be a check to ensure we were not disconnected
while waiting for GET_SCAN to come back.
netdev_connect_event was being reused for parsing of CMD_ROAM
attributes which made some amount of sense since these events
are nearly identical, but due to the nature of firmware roaming
there really isn't much IWD needs to parse from CMD_ROAM. In
addition netdev_connect_event was getting rather complicated
since it had to handle both CMD_ROAM and CMD_CONNECT.
The only bits of information IWD needs to parse from CMD_ROAM
is the roamed BSSID, authenticator IEs, and supplicant IEs. Since
this is so limited it now makes little sense to reuse the entire
netdev_connect_event function, and intead only parse what is
needed for CMD_ROAM.
station should be isolated as much as possible from the details of the
driver type and how a particular AKM is handled under the hood. It will
be up to wiphy to pick the best AKM for a given bss. netdev in turn
will pick how to drive the particular AKM that was picked.
Currently netdev handles SoftMac and FullMac drivers mostly in the same
way, by building CMD_CONNECT nl80211 commands and letting the kernel
figure out the details. Exceptions to this are FILS/OWE/SAE AKMs which
are only supported on SoftMac drivers by using
CMD_AUTHENTICATE/CMD_ASSOCIATE.
Recently, basic support for SAE (WPA3-Personal) offload on FullMac cards
was introduced. When offloaded, the control flow is very different than
under typical conditions and required additional logic checks in several
places. The logic is now becoming quite complex.
Introduce a concept of a connection type in order to make it clearer
what driver and driver features are being used for this connection. In
the future, connection types can be expanded with 802.1X handshake
offload, PSK handshake offload and CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH based SAE
connections.
Commit 6e8b76527 added a switch statement for AKM suites which
was not correct as this is a bitmask and may contain multiple
values. Intead we can rely on wiphy_select_akm which is a more
robust check anyways.
Fixes: 6e8b765278 ("wiphy: add check for CMD_AUTH/CMD_ASSOC support")
If there is an associate timeout, retry a few times in case
it was just a fluke. At this point SAE is fully negotiated
so it makes sense to attempt to save the connection.
Any auth proto which did not implement the assoc_timeout handler
could end up getting 'stuck' forever if there was an associate
timeout. This is because in the event of an associate timeout IWD
only sets a few flags and relies on the connect event to actually
handle the failure. The problem is a connect event never comes
if the failure was a timeout.
To fix this we can explicitly fail the connection if the auth
proto has not implemented assoc_timeout or if it returns false.
In the same vein as requesting a neighbor report after
connecting for the first time, it should also be done
after a roam to obtain the latest neighbor information.
Converts ie_rsn_akm_suite values (and WPA1 hint) into a more
human readable security string such as:
WPA2-Personal, WPA3-Personal, WPA2-Personal + FT etc.
When we cancel a quick scan that has already been triggered, the
Scanning property is never reset to false. This doesn't fully reflect
the actual scanning state of the hardware since we don't (yet) abort
the scan, but at least corrects the public API behavior.
