Use the NLMSG_ALIGN macro on the family header size (struct ifinfomsg in
this case). The ascii graphics in include/net/netlink.h show that both
the netlink header and the family header should be padded. The netlink
header (nlmsghdr) is already padded in ell. To "document" this
requirementin ell what we could do is take two buffers, one for the
family header and one for the attributes.
This doesn't change anything for most people because ifinfomsg is
already 16-byte long on the usual architectures.
Remove the keys and other data from struct eapol_sm, update device.c,
netdev.c and wsc.c to use the handshake_state object instead of
eapol_sm. This also gets rid of eapol_cancel and the ifindex parameter
in some of the eapol functions where sm->handshake->ifindex can be
used instead.
struct handshake_state is an object that stores all the key data and other
authentication state and does the low level operations on the keys. Together
with the next patch this mostly just splits eapol.c into two layers
so that the key operations can also be used in Fast Transitions which don't
use eapol.
If device_select_akm_suite selects Fast Transition association then pass
the MD IE and other bits needed for eapol and netdev to do an FT
association and 4-Way Handshake.
If an MD IE is supplied to netdev_connect, pass that MD IE in the
associate request, then validate and handle the MD IE and FT IE in the
associate response from AP.
Add space in the eapol_sm struct for the pieces of information required
for the FT 4-Way Handshake and add setters for device.c and netdev.c to
be able to provide the data.
Don't decide on the AKM suite to use when the bss entries are received
and processed, instead select the suite when the connection is triggered
using a new function device_select_akm_suite, similar to
wiphy_select_cipher(). Describing the AKM suite through flags will be
more difficult when more than 2 suites per security type are supported.
Also handle the wiphy_select_cipher 0 return value when no cipher can be
selected.
The len parameter was only used so it could be validated against ie[1],
but since it was not checked to be > 2, it must have been validated
already, the check was redundant. In any case all users directly
passed ie[1] as len anyway. This makes it consistent with the ie
parsers and builders which didn't require a length.
In many cases the pairwise and group cipher information is not the only
information needed from the BSS RSN/WPA elements in order to make a
decision. For example, th MFPC/MFPR bits might be needed, or
pre-authentication capability bits, group management ciphers, etc.
This patch refactors bss_get_supported_ciphers into the more general
scan_bss_get_rsn_info function
Split eapol_start into two calls, one to register the state machine so
that the PAE read handler knows not to discard frames for that ifindex,
and eapol_start to actually start processing the frames. This is needed
because, as per the comment in netdev.c, due to scheduling the PAE
socket read handler may trigger before the CMD_CONNECT event handler,
which needs to parse the FTE from the Associate Response frame and
supply it to the eapol SM before it can do anything with the message 1
of 4 of the FT handshake.
Another issue is that depending on the driver or timing, the underlying
link might not be marked as 'ready' by the kernel. In this case, our
response to Message 1 of the 4-way Handshake is written and accepted by
the kernel, but gets dropped on the floor internally. Which leads to
timeouts if the AP doesn't retransmit.
