Doing 'ad-hoc <wlan> start_open <"network name">' returned a
"No matching method found" error because start_open called
net.connman.iwd.AdHoc.Start instead of net.connman.iwd.AdHoc.StartOpen.
It seems some APs send the IGTK key in big endian format (it is a
uin16). The kernel rightly reports an -EINVAL error when iwd issues a
NEW_KEY with such a value, resulting in the connection being aborted.
Work around this by trying to detect big-endian key indexes and 'fixing'
them up.
When running test-runner as non-root the environment variables
SUDO_GID/SUDO_UID were unset, causing atoi to segfault. This replaces
atoi with strtol, and checks the existance of SUDO_GID/SUDO_UID
before trying to turn it into an integer. This patch also allows
the uid/gid to be read from the user if running as non-root.
Note: running as non-root does require the users permissions to be
setup properly. Directories and files are created when running with
logging, so if the user running test-runner does not have these
permissions the creation of these files will fail.
The configuration value of iwd_config_dir was defaulting to /etc/iwd
which, in the context of test-runner, is probably not the best idea.
The system may have a main.conf file in /etc/iwd which could cause
tests to fail or behave unexpectedly.
In addition all tests which use iwd_config_dir set it to /tmp anyways.
Because of this, the new default value will be /tmp and no tests will
even need to bother setting this.
The configuration value itself is not being removed because it may be
useful to set arbitrary paths (e.g. /etc/iwd) for example when using
the shell functionality.
This bug has been in here since OWE was written, but a similar bug also
existed in hostapd which allowed the PTK derivation to be identical.
In January 2020 hostapd fixed this bug, which now makes IWD incompatible
when using group 20 or 21.
This patch fixes the bug for IWD, so now OWE should be compatible with
recent hostapd version. This will break compatibility with old hostapd
versions which still have this bug.
If the AP only supports an AKM which requires an auth protocol
CMD_AUTHENTICATE/CMD_ASSOCIATE must be supported or else the
auth protocol cannot be run. All the auth protocols are started
assuming that the card supports these commands, but the support
was never checked when parsing supported commands.
This patch will prevent any fullMAC cards from using
SAE/FILS/OWE. This was the same behavior as before, just an
earlier failure path.
This function was intended to catch socket errors and destroy the group
but it would leak the l_io object if that happened, and if called on
ordinary shutdown it could cause a crash. Since we're now assuming
that the netlink socket operations never fail just remove it.
Only add constants for parsing the Device Information subelement as that
is the main thing we care about in P2P code. And since our own WFD IEs
will likely only need to contain the Device Information subelement, we
don't need builder utilities. We do need iterator utilities because we
may receive WFD IEs with more subelements.
In some cases a P2P peer will ACK our frame but not reply on the first
attempt, and other implementations seem to handle this by going back to
retransmitting the frame at a high rate until it gets ACKed again, at
which point they will again give the peer a longer time to tx the
response frame. Implement the same logic here by adding a
retries_on_ack parameter that takes the number of additional times we
want to restart the normal retransmit counter after we received no
response frame on the first attempt. So passing 0 maintains the
current behaviour, 1 for 1 extra attempt, etc.
In effect we may retransmit a frame about 15 * (retry_on_ack + 1) *
<in-kernel retransmit limit> times. The kernel/driver retransmits a
frame a number of times if there's no ACK (I've seen about 20 normally)
at a high frequency, if that fails we retry the whole process 15 times
inside frame-xchg.c and if we still get no ACK at any point, we give up.
If we do get an ACK, we wait for a response frame and if we don't get
that we will optionally reset the retry counter and restart the whole
thing retry_on_ack times.
In order to support AlwaysRandomizeAddress and AddressOverride, station will
set the desired address into the handshake object. Then, netdev checks if
this was done and will use that address rather than generate one.
This patch adds two new options to a network provisioning file:
AlwaysRandomizeAddress={true,false}
If true, IWD will randomize the MAC address on each connection to this
network. The address does not persists between connections, any new
connection will result in a different MAC.
AddressOverride=<MAC>
If set, the MAC address will be set to <MAC> assuming its a valid MAC
address.
These two options should not be used together, and will only take effect
if [General].AddressRandomization is set to 'network' in the IWD
config file.
If neither of these options are set, and [General].AddressRandomization
is set to 'network', the default behavior remains the same; the MAC
will be generated deterministically on a per-network basis.
Since frame_watch_remove_by_handler only forgets a given function +
user data pointers, and doesn't remove the frame prefixes added in the
kernel, we can avoid later re-registering those prefixes with the
kernel by keeping them in our local watchlist, and only replacing the
handler pointer with a dummy function.
If during WATCHLIST_NOTIFY{,_MATCHES,_NO_ARGS} one of the watch
notify callback triggers a call to watchlist_destroy, give up calling
remaining watches and destroy the watchlist without crashing. This is
useful in frame-xchg.c (P2P use case) where a frame watch may trigger
a move to a new state after receiving a specific frame, and remove one
group of frame watches (including its watchlist) to create a different
group.
For privacy reasons its advantageous to randomize or mask
the MAC address when connecting to networks, especially public
networks.
This patch allows netdev to generate a new MAC address on a
per-network basis. The generated MAC will remain the same when
connecting to the same network. This allows reauthentications
or roaming to work, and not have to fully re-connect (which would
be required if the MAC changed on every connection).
Changing the MAC requires bringing the interface down. This does
lead to potential race conditions with respect to external
processes. There are two potential conditions which are explained
in a TODO comment in this patch.
This API is being added to support per-network MAC address
generation. The MAC is generated based on the network SSID
and the adapters permanent address using HMAC-SHA256. The
SHA digest is then constrained to make it MAC address
compliant.
Generating the MAC address like this will ensure that the
MAC remains the same each time a given SSID is connected to.
Make sure a frame callback is free to call frame_xchg_stop without
causing a crash. Frame callback here means the one that gets
called if our tx frame was ACKed and triggered a respone frame that
matched one of the provided prefixes, within the given time.
All in all a frame callback is allowed to call either
frame_xchg_stop or frame_xchg_startv or neither. Same applies to
the final callback (called when no matching responses received).
Don't crash if the user calls frame_xchg_stop(wdev) from inside the
frame exchange's final callback. That call is going to be redundant but
it's convenient to do this inside a cleanup function for a given wdev
without having to check whether any frame exchange was actually running.
This key is special in hostapd, and was being treated as a normal hostapd
config file. This special radius config file needs to be kept unpaired from
any interfaces so now its passed in as a separate argument and appended to
the end of the hostapd execute command.
