The default() method was added for convenience but was extending the
test times significantly when the hostapd config was lengthy. This
was because it called set_value for every value regardless if it
had changed. Instead store the current configuration and in default()
only reset values that differ.
In many tests the hostapd configuration does not include all the
values that a test uses. Its expected that each individual test
will add the values required. In many cases its required each test
slightly alter the configuration for each change every other test
has to set the value back to either a default or its own setting.
This results in a ton of duplicated code mainly setting things
back to defaults.
To help with this problem the hostapd configuration is read in
initially and stored as the default. Tests can then simply call
.default() to set everything back. This significantly reduces or
completely removes a ton of set_value() calls.
This does require that each hostapd configuration file includes all
values any of the subtests will set, which is a small price for the
convenience.
This adds a few utilities for setting up an FT environment. All the
roaming tests basically copy/paste the same code for setting up the
hostapd instances and this can cause problems if not done correctly.
set_address() sets the MAC address on the device, and restarts hostapd
group_neighbors() takes a list of HostapdCLI objects and makes each a
neighbor to the others.
The neighbor report element requires the operating class which isn't
advertised by hostapd. For this we assume operating class 81 but this
can be set explicitly if it differs. Currently no roaming tests use
5/6GHz frequencies, and just in case an exception will be thrown if
the channel is greater than 14 and the op_class didn't change.
Test that the DHCPv4 lease got renewed after the T1 timer runs out.
Then also simulate the DHCPREQUEST during renew being lost and
retransmitted and the lease eventually getting renewed T1 + 60s later.
The main downside is that this test will inevitably take a while if
running in Qemu without the time travel ability.
Update the test and some utility code to run hostapd in an isolated net
namespace for connection_test.py. We now need a second hostapd
instance though because in static_test.py we test ACD and we need to
produce an IP conflict. Moving the hostapd instance unexpectedly fixes
dhcpd's internal mechanism to avoid IP conflicts and it would no longer
assign 192.168.1.10 to the second client, it'd notice that address was
already in use and assign the next free address, or fail if there was
none. So add a second hostapd instance that runs in the main namespace
together with the statically-configured client, it turns out the test
relies on the kernel being unable to deliver IP traffic to interfaces on
the same system.
The rekey/reauth logic was broken in a few different ways.
For rekeys the event list was not being reset so any past 4-way
handshake would allow the call to pass. This actually removes
the need for the sleep in the extended key ID test because the
actual handshake event is waited for correctly.
For both rekeys and reauths, just waiting for the EAP/handshake
events was not enough. Without checking if the client got
disconnected we essentially allow a full disconnect and reconnect,
meaning the rekey/reauth failed.
Now a 'disallow' array can be passed to wait_for_event which will
throw an exception if any events in that array are encountered
while waiting for the target event.
This was passing IFNAME= along with EAPOL_REAUTH which does not work
in the context of a hostapd socket where the iface is already implied.
This fixes that issue as well as resets the events array and actually
waits for the required events afterwards.
With how fast UML is hostapd events were being sent out prior to
ever calling wait_for_event. Instead set an IO watch on the control
socket and cache all events as they come. Then, when wait_for_event
is called, it can reference this list. If the event is found any
older events are purged from the list.
The AP-ENABLED event needed a special case because hostapd gets
started before the IO watch can be registered. To fix this an
enabled property was added which queries the state directly. This
is checked first, and if not enabled wait_for_event continues normally.
REKEY_GTK kicks off the GTK only handshake where REKEY_PTK does
both (via the 4-way). The way this utility was written was causing
hostapd some major issues since both REKEY_GTK and REKEY_PTK was
used.
Instead if address is set only do REKEY_PTK. This will also rekey
the GTK via the 4-way handshake.
If no address is set do REKEY_GTK which will only rekey the GTK.
The destructor was trying to do more than the scope of a destructor
by trying to handle this single case of hostapd being restarted.
Instead we can simply pass a keyword argument 'reinit' to the
constructor to tell it to reinitialize everything. And as for killing
hostapd this can be done in ungraceful_restart itself rather than
trying to handle it in the destructor.
This addresses the TODO where HostapdCLI was creating separate
objects each time HostapdCLI was called. This was worked around
by manually setting the important members but instead the class
can be re-worked to act as somewhat of a singleton, per-config
at least.
If there is no HostapdCLI instance for a given config one is
created and initialized. Subsequent HostapdCLI calls (for the
same config) will be returned the same object rather than a
new one.
Break up the SAE tests into two parts: testSAE and testSAE-AntiClogging
testSAE is simplified to only use two radios and a single phy managed
by hostapd. hostapd configurations are changed via the new 'set_value'
method added to hostapd utils. This allows forcing hostapd to use a
particular sae group set, or force hostapd to use SAE H2E/Hunting and
Pecking Loop for key derivation. A separate test for IKE Group 20 is no
longer required and is folded into connection_test.py
testSAE-AntiClogging is added with an environment for 5 radios instead
of 7, again with hostapd running on a single phy. 'sae_pwe' is used to
force hostapd to use SAE H2E or Hunting and Pecking for key derivation.
Both Anti-Clogging protocol variants are thus tested.
main.conf is added to both directories to force scan randomization off.
This seems to be required for hostapd to work properly on hwsim.
The testAPRoam autotest was silently failing on my machine until I
realized that my distribution hostapd (Arch Linux) is not built with
CONFIG_WNM_AP=y. Indeed, it is also disabled by default in upstream
hostapd. This resulted in the send_bss_transition() function of
hostapd.py silently failing. With this change, throw an exception in
case the BSS_TM_REQ command does not succeed to hopefully save others
the time of debugging this problem.
There were some major problems related to logging and process
output. Tests which required output from start_process would
break if used with '--log/--verbose'. This is because we relied
on 'communicate' to retrieve the process output, but Popen does
not store process output when stdout/stderr are anything other
than PIPE.
Intead, in the case of logging or outfiles, we can simply read
from the file we just wrote to.
For an explicit --verbose application we must handle things
slightly different. A keyword argument was added to Process,
'need_out' which will ensure the process output is kept
regardless of --log or --verbose.
Now a user should be able to use --log/--verbose without any
tests failing.
If a test does not need any hostapd instances but still loads
hostapd.py for some reason we want to gracefully throw an
exception rather than fail in some other manor.
Before the re-write there was interesting escapes being used for
set_neighbor. Curiously now hostapd fails to set the neighbor due
to these escapes so they have been removed.
Before hostapd was initialized using the wiphy_map which has now
gone away. Instead we have a global config module which contains
a single 'ctx'. This is the centeral store for all test information.
This patch converts hostapd.py to lookup instances by already
initialized Hostapd object. The interface parameter was removed
since all tests have been converted to use config= instead.
In addition HostapdCLI was changed to allow no parameters if there
is only a single hostapd instance.
Restarting hostapd from python was actually leaking memory and
causing the hostapd object to stay referenced in python. The
GLib timeout in wait_for_event was the ultimate cause, but this
had no come to light because no tests restarted hostapd then
used wait_for_event.
In addition, any use of wait_for_event after a restart would
cause an exception because the event socket was never re-attached
after hostapd restarted.
Now we properly clean up the timeout in wait_for_event and
re-initialize the hostapd object on restart.
Hostapd has a feature where you can connect to its control socket and
receive events it generates. Currently we only send commands via this
socket.
First we open the socket (/var/run/hostapd/<iface>) and send the
ATTACH command. This tells hostapd we are ready and after this any
events will be sent over this socket.
A new API, wait_for_event, was added which takes an event string and
waits for some timeout. The glib event loop has been integrated into
this, though its not technically async since we are selecting over a
socket which blocks. To mitigate this a small timeout was chosen for
each select call and then wrapped in a while loop which waits for the
full timeout.
If the config file passed in is not found we would continue and
eventually something else would fail. Instead immediately raise an
exception to be more clear on what is actually failing.
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 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.
At some point a stray ';' got added into an autotest in a section
of code that is heavily copy pasted. So in turn nearly all the autotests
have this stray ';' after list_devices (and a few in other places).
The hwsim SendFrame method requires the radio frequency which
is obtained from the hostapd config file. This adds a generic
API to get any config value from the hostapd config, as well
as a get_freq API that converts the channel number to a
frequency.
For testing SA Query, the autotest needs the ablility to force
kill (and restart) hostapd without giving it time to deauth its
stations gracefully. A method was added to the HostapdCLI class
which does a killall -9 hostapd, resets the wlnX interface,
and restarts hostapd with the same arguments as it had before.
Make the HostapdCLI class non-static so that each objects corresponds
to a hostapd instance on one network interface (this is independent of
whether the AP instances use one or separate hostapd processes)
