FT over FILS-SHA384 uses a 24 byte FT MIC rather than the 16 byte MIC
used for all other AKMs. This change allows both the FT builder/parser
to handle both lengths of MIC. The mic length is now passed directly
into ie_parse_fast_bss_transition and ie_build_fast_bss_transition
ifaddr is not guaranteed to be initialized, I'm not sure why there was
no compiler warning. Also replace a | with a || for boolean conditions
and merge the wiphy check with that line.
FT-over-DS is a way to do a Fast BSS Transition using action frames for
the authenticate step. This allows a station to start a fast transition
to a target AP while still being connected to the original AP. This,
in theory, can result in less carrier downtime.
The existing ft_sm_new was removed, and two new constructors were added;
one for over-air, and another for over-ds. The internals of ft.c mostly
remain the same. A flag to distinguish between air/ds was added along
with a new parser to parse the action frames rather than authenticate
frames. The IE parsing is identical.
Netdev now just initializes the auth-proto differently depending on if
its doing over-air or over-ds. A new TX authenticate function was added
and used for over-ds. This will send out the IEs from ft.c with an
FT Request action frame.
The FT Response action frame is then recieved from the AP and fed into
the auth-proto state machine. After this point ft-over-ds behaves the
same as ft-over-air (associate to the target AP).
Some simple code was added in station.c to determine if over-air or
over-ds should be used. FT-over-DS can be beneficial in cases where the
AP is directing us to roam, or if the RSSI falls below a threshold.
It should not be used if we have lost communication to the AP all
(beacon lost) as it only works while we can still talk to the original
AP.
To support FT-over-DS this API needed some slight modifications:
- Instead of setting the DA to netdev->handshake->aa, it is just set to
the same address as the 'to' parameter. The kernel actually requires
and checks for these addresses to match. All occurences were passing
the handshake->aa anyways so this change should have no adverse
affects; and its actually required by ft-over-ds to pass in the
previous BSSID, so hard coding handshake->aa will not work.
- The frequency is is also passed in now, as ft-over-ds needs to use
the frequency of the currently connected AP (netdev->frequency get
set to the new target in netdev_fast_transition. Previous frequency
is also saved now).
- A new vector variant (netdev_send_action_framev) was added as well
to support sending out the FT Request action frame since the FT
TX authenticate function provides an iovec of the IEs. The existing
function was already having to prepend the action frame header to
the body, so its not any more or less copying to do the same thing
with an iovec instead.
Since FT already handles processing the FT IE's (and building for
associate) it didn't make sense to have all the IE building inside
netdev_build_cmd_ft_authenticate. Instead this logic was moved into
ft.c, and an iovec is now passed from FT into
netdev_ft_tx_authenticate. This leaves the netdev command builder
unburdened by the details of FT, as well as prepares for FT-over-DS.
In both netdev_{authenticate,associate}_event there is no need to check
for in_ft at the start since netdev->ap will always be set if in_ft is
set.
There was also no need to set eapol_sm_set_use_eapol_start, as setting
require_handshake implies this and achieves the same result when starting
the SM.
Since FT operates over Authenticate/Associate, it makes the most sense
for it to behave like the other auth-protos.
This change moves all the FT specific processing out of netdev and into
ft.c. The bulk of the changes were strait copy-pastes from netdev into
ft.c with minor API changes (e.g. remove struct netdev).
The 'in_ft' boolean unforunately is still required for a few reasons:
- netdev_disconnect_event relies on this flag so it can ignore the
disconnect which comes in when doing a fast transition. We cannot
simply check netdev->ap because this would cause the other auth-protos
to not handle a disconnect correctly.
- netdev_associate_event needs to correctly setup the eapol_sm when
in FT mode by setting require_handshake and use_eapol_start to false.
This cannot be handled inside eapol by checking the AKM because an AP
may only advertise a FT AKM, and the initial mobility association
does require the 4-way handshake.
Now the 'ft' module, previously ftutil, will be used to drive FT via
the auth-proto virtual class. This renaming is in preparation as
ftutil will become obsolete since all the IE building/processing is
going to be moved out of netdev. The new ft.c module will utilize
the existing ftutil functionality, but since this is now a full blown
auth protocol naming it 'ft' is better suited.
The duplicate/similar code in netdev_associate_event and
netdev_connect_event leads to very hard to follow code, especially
when you throw OWE/SAE/FILS or full mac cards into the mix.
Currently these protocols finish the connection inside
netdev_associate_event, and set ignore_connect_event. But for full
mac cards we must finish the connection in netdev_connect_event.
In attempt to simplify this, all connections will be completed
and/or the 4-way started in netdev_connect_event. This satisfies
both soft/full mac cards as well as simplifies the FT processing
in netdev_associate_event. Since the FT IEs can be processed in
netdev_connect_event (as they already are to support full mac)
we can assume that any FT processing inside netdev_associate_event
is for a fast transition, not initial mobility association. This
simplifies netdev_ft_process_associate by removing all the blocks
that would get hit if transition == false.
Handling FT this way also fixes FT-SAE which was broken after the
auth-proto changes since the initial mobility association was
never processed if there was an auth-proto running.
SAE was a bit trickier than OWE/FILS because the initial implementation
for SAE did not include parsing raw authenticate frames (netdev skipped
the header and passed just the authentication data). OWE/FILS did not
do this and parse the entire frame in the RX callbacks. Because of this
it was not as simple as just setting some RX callbacks. In addition,
the TX functions include some of the authentication header/data, but
not all (thanks NL80211), so this will require an overhaul to test-sae
since the unit test passes frames from one SM to another to test the
protocol end-to-end (essentially the header needs to be prepended to
any data coming from the TX functions for the end-to-end tests).
An unexpected Associate event would cause iwd to crash when accessing
netdev->handshake->mde. netdev->handshake is only set if we're
attempting to connect or connected somewhere so check netdev->connected
first.
SAE was behaving inconsitently with respect to freeing the state.
It was freeing the SM internally on failure, but requiring netdev
free it on success.
This removes the call to sae_sm_free in sae.c upon failure, and
instead netdev frees the SM in the complete callback in all cases
regardless of success or failure.
From netdev's prospective FILS works the same as OWE/SAE where we create
a fils_sm and forward all auth/assoc frames into the FILS module. The
only real difference is we do not start EAPoL once FILS completes.

The latest refactoring ended up assuming that FT related elements would
be handled in netdev_associate_event. However, FullMac cards (that do
not generate netdev_associate_event) could still connect using FT AKMs
and perform the Initial mobility association. In such cases the FTE
element was required but ended up not being set into the handshake.
This caused the handshake to fail during PTK 1_of_4 processing.
Fix this by making sure that FTE + related info is set into the
handshake, albeit with a lower sanity checking level since the
elements have been processed by the firmware already.
Note that it is currently impossible for actual FTs to be performed on
FullMac cards, so the extra logic and sanity checking to handle these
can be skipped.
Make netdev_create_from_genl public and change signature to return the
created netdev or NULL. Also add netdev_destroy that destroys and
unregisters the created netdevs. Both will be used to move the
whole interface management to a new file.
The associate event is only important for OWE and FT. If neither of
these conditions (or FT initial association) are happening we do
not need to continue further processing the associate event.
In netdev_associate_event the ignore_connect_event was getting set true,
but afterwards there were still potential failure paths. Now, once in
assoc_failed we explicitly set ignore_connect_event to false so the
the failure can be handled properly inside netdev_connect_event
Environments with several AP's, all at low signal strength may
want to lower the roaming RSSI threshold to prevent IWD from
roaming excessively. This adds an option 'roam_rssi_threshold',
which is still defaulted to -70.
At some point the connect command builder was modified, and the
control port over NL80211 check was moved to inside if (is_rsn).
For WPS, no supplicant_ie was set, so CONTROL_PORT_OVER_NL80211
was never set into CMD_CONNECT. This caused IWD to expect WPS
frames over netlink, but the kernel was sending them over the
legacy route.
station.c generates the IEs we will need to use for the
Authenticate/Associate and EAPoL frames and sets them into the
handshake_state object. However the driver may modify some of them
during CMD_CONNECT and we need to use those update values so the AP
isn't confused about differing IEs in diffent frames from us.
Specifically the "wl" driver seems to do this at least for the RSN IE.
Also add a mask parameter to wiphy_get_supported_iftypes to make sure
the SupportedModes property only contains the values that can be used
as Device.Mode.
We can crash if we abort the connection, but the connect command has
already gone through. In this case we will get a sequence of
authenticate_event, associate_event, connect_event. The first and last
events don't crash since they check whether netdev->connected is true.
However, this causes an annoying warning to be printed.
Fix this by introducing an 'aborting' flag and ignore all connection
related events if it is set.

Apart from OWE, the association event was disregarded and all association
processing was done in netdev_connect_event. This led to
netdev_connect_event having to handle all the logic of both success and
failure, as well as parsing the association for FT and OWE. Also, without
checking the status code in the associate frame there is the potential
for the kernel to think we are connected even if association failed
(e.g. rogue AP).
This change introduces two flags into netdev, expect_connect_failure and
ignore_connect_event. All the FT processing that was once in
netdev_connect_event has now been moved into netdev_associate_event, as
well as non-FT associate frame processing. The connect event now only
handles failure cases for soft/half MAC cards.
Note: Since fullmac cards rely on the connect event, the eapol_start
and netdev_connect_ok were left in netdev_connect_event. Since neither
auth/assoc events come in on fullmac we shouldn't have any conflict with
the new flags.
Once a connection has completed association, EAPoL is started from
netdev_associate_event (if required) and the ignore_connect_event flag can
be set. This will bypass the connect event.
If a connection has failed during association for whatever reason, we can
set expect_connect_failure, the netdev reason, and the MPDU status code.
This allows netdev_connect_event to both handle the error, and, if required,
send a deauth telling the kernel that we have failed (protecting against the
rogue AP situation).
OWE processing can be completely taken care of inside
netdev_authenticate_event and netdev_associate_event. This removes
the need for OWE specific checks inside netdev_connect_event. We can
now return early out of the connect event if OWE is in progress.
Several netdev events benefit from including event data in the callback.
This is similar to how the connect callback works as well. The content
of the event data is documented in netdev.h (netdev_event_func_t).
By including event data for the two disconnect events, we can pass the
reason code to better handle the failure in station.c. Now, inside
station_disconnect_event, we still check if there is a pending connection,
and if so we can call the connect callback directly with HANDSHAKE_FAILED.
Doing it this way unifies the code path into a single switch statment to
handle all failures.
In addition, we pass the RSSI level index as event data to
RSSI_LEVEL_NOTIFY. This removes the need for a getter to be exposed in
netdev.h.
This change cleans up the mess of status vs reason codes. The two
types of codes have already been separated into different enumerations,
but netdev was still treating them the same (with last_status_code).
A new 'event_data' argument was added to the connect callback, which
has a different meaning depending on the result of the connection
(described inside netdev.h, netdev_connect_cb_t). This allows for the
removal of netdev_get_last_status_code since the status or reason
code is now passed via event_data.
Inside the netdev object last_status_code was renamed to last_code, for
the purpose of storing either status or reason. This is only used when
a disconnect needs to be emitted before failing the connection. In all
other cases we just pass the code directly into the connect_cb and do
not store it.
All ocurrences of netdev_connect_failed were updated to use the proper
code depending on the netdev result. Most of these simply changed from
REASON_CODE_UNSPECIFIED to STATUS_CODE_UNSPECIFIED. This was simply for
consistency (both codes have the same value).
netdev_[authenticate|associate]_event's were updated to parse the
status code and, if present, use that if their was a failure rather
than defaulting to UNSPECIFIED.
If OWE fails in association there is no reason to send a disconnect
since its already known that we failed. Instead we can directly
call netdev_connect_failed
Instead of sending a reason_code to netdev_setting_keys_failed, make it
take an errno (negative) instead. Since key setting failures are
entirely a system / software issue, and not a protocol issue, it makes
no sense to use a protocol error code.
A new driver extended feature bit was added signifying if the driver
supports PTK replacement/rekeying. During a connect, netdev checks
for the driver feature and sets the handshakes 'no_rekey' flag
accordingly.
At some point the AP will decide to rekey which is handled inside
eapol. If no_rekey is unset we rekey as normal and the connection
remains open. If we have set no_rekey eapol will emit
HANDSHAKE_EVENT_REKEY_FAILED, which is now caught inside station. If
this happens our only choice is to fully disconnect and reconnect.
Soon BSS blacklisting will be added, and in order to properly decide if
a BSS should be blacklisted we need the status code on a failed
connection. This change stores the status code when there is a failure
in netdev and adds a getter to retrieve later. In many cases we have
the actual status code from the AP, but in some corner cases its not
obtainable (e.g. an error sending an NL80211 command) in which case we
just default to MMPDU_REASON_CODE_UNSPECIFIED.
Rather than continue with the pattern of setting netdev->result and
now netdev->last_status_code, the netdev_connect_failed function was
redefined so its no longer used as both a NL80211 callback and called
directly. Instead a new function was added, netdev_disconnect_cb which
just calls netdev_connect_failed. netdev_disconnect_cb should not be
used for all the NL80211 disconnect commands. Now netdev_connect_failed
takes both a result and status code which it sets in the netdev object.
In the case where we were using netdev_connect_failed as a callback we
still need to set the result and last_status_code but at least this is
better than having to set those in all cases.
ELL ECC supports group 20 (P384) so OWE can also support it. This also
adds group negotiation, where OWE can choose a different group than the
default if the AP requests it.
A check needed to be added in netdev in order for the negotiation to work.
The RFC says that if a group is not supported association should be rejected
with code 77 (unsupported finite cyclic group) and association should be
started again. This rejection was causing a connect event to be emitted by
the kernel (in addition to an associate event) which would result in netdev
terminating the connection, which we didn't want. Since OWE receives the
rejected associate event it can intelligently decide whether it really wants
to terminate (out of supported groups) or try the next available group.
This also utilizes the new MIC/KEK/KCK length changes, since OWE dictates
the lengths of those keys.
Make sure we don't pass NULLs to memcmp or l_memdup when the prefix
buffer is NULL. There's no point having callers pass dummy buffers if
they need to watch frames independent of the frame data.
The changes to station.c are minor. Specifically,
station_build_handshake_rsn was modified to always build up the RSN
information, not just for SECURITY_8021X and SECURITY_PSK. This is
because OWE needs this RSN information, even though it is still
SECURITY_NONE. Since "regular" open networks don't need this, a check
was added (security == NONE && akm != OWE) which skips the RSN
building.
netdev.c needed to be changed in nearly the same manor as it was for
SAE. When connecting, we check if the AKM is for OWE, and if so create
a new OWE SM and start it. OWE handles all the ECDH, and netdev handles
sending CMD_AUTHENTICATE and CMD_ASSOCIATE when triggered by OWE. The
incoming authenticate/associate events just get forwarded to OWE as they
do with SAE.
Adhoc was not waiting for BOTH handshakes to complete before adding the
new peer to the ConnectedPeers property. Actually waiting for the gtk/igtk
(in a previous commit) helps with this, but adhoc also needed to keep track
of which handshakes had completed, and only add the peer once BOTH were done.
This required a small change in netdev, where we memcmp the addresses from
both handshakes and only set the PTK on one.
Currently, netdev triggers the HANDSHAKE_COMPLETE event after completing
the SET_STATION (after setting the pairwise key). Depending on the timing
this may happen before the GTK/IGTK are set which will result in group
traffic not working initially (the GTK/IGTK would still get set, but group
traffic would not work immediately after DBus said you were connected, this
mainly poses a problem with autotests).
In order to fix this, several flags were added in netdev_handshake_state:
ptk_installed, gtk_installed, igtk_installed, and completed. Each of these
flags are set true when their respective keys are set, and in each key
callback we try to trigger the handshake complete event (assuming all the
flags are true). Initially the gtk/igtk flags are set to true, for reasons
explained below.
In the WPA2 case, all the key setter functions are called sequentially from
eapol. With this change, the PTK is now set AFTER the gtk/igtk. This is
because the gtk/igtk are optional and only set if group traffic is allowed.
If the gtk/igtk are not used, we set the PTK and can immediately trigger the
handshake complete event (since gtk_installed/igtk_installed are initialized
as true). When the gtk/igtk are being set, we immediately set their flags to
false and wait for their callbacks in addition to the PTK callback. Doing it
this way handles both group traffic and non group traffic paths.
WPA1 throws a wrench into this since the group keys are obtained in a
separate handshake. For this case a new flag was added to the handshake_state,
'wait_for_gtk'. This allows netdev to set the PTK after the initial 4-way,
but still wait for the gtk/igtk setters to get called before triggering the
handshake complete event. As a precaution, netdev sets a timeout that will
trigger if the gtk/igtk setters are never called. In this case we can still
complete the connection, but print a warning that group traffic will not be
allowed.

Netdev/AP share several NL80211 commands and each has their own
builder API's. These were moved into a common file nl80211_util.[ch].
A helper was added to AP for building NEW_STATION to make the associate
callback look cleaner (rather than manually building NEW_STATION).
Check that netdev->device is not NULL before doing device_remove()
(which would crash) and emitting NETDEV_WATCH_EVENT_DEL. It may be
NULL if the initial RTM_SETLINK has failed to bring device UP.
In netdev_set_powered also check that no NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE is in
progress because once it returned we would overwrite
netdev->set_powered_cmd_id (could also add a check there but it seems
more logical to just disallow Powered property changes while Mode is
being changed, since we also disallow Mode changes while Powered is
being changed.)
When we detect a new device we either bring it down and then up or only
up. The IFF_UP flag in netdev->ifi_flags is updated before that, then
we send the two rtnl commands and then fire the NETDEV_WATCH_EVENT_NEW
event if either the bring up succeeded or -ERFKILL was returned, so the
device may either be UP or DOWN at that point.
It seems that a RTNL NEWLINK notification is usually received before
the RTNL command callback but I don't think this is guaranteed so update
the IFF_UP flag in the callbacks so that the NETDEV_WATCH_EVENT_NEW
handlers can reliably use netdev_get_is_up()
The NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT_TYPES attribute is only parsed by the
kernel if either NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT or
NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT_MGMT are also present, however these are only
used with NL80211_CMD_SET_KEY and ignored for NEW_KEY. As far as I
understand the default key concept only makes sense for a Tx key because
on Rx all keys can be tried, so we don't need this for client mode. The
kernel decides whether the NEW_KEY is for unicast or multicast based on
whether NL80211_ATTR_KEY_MAC was supplied.
Boiled down, FT over SAE is no different than FT over PSK, apart from
the different AKM suite. The bulk of this change fixes the current
netdev/station logic related to SAE by rebuilding the RSNE and adding
the MDE if present in the handshake to match what the PSK logic does.
A common function was introduced into station which will rebuild the
handshake rsne's for a target network. This is used for both new
network connections as well as fast transitions.
To prepare for FT over SAE, several case/if statements needed to include
IE_RSN_AKM_SUITE_FT_OVER_SAE. Also a new macro was introduced to remove
duplicate if statement code checking for both FT_OVER_SAE and SAE AKM's.
To avoid confusion in case of an authenticator side handshake_state
structure and eapol_sm structure, rename own_ie to supplicant_ie and
ap_ie to authenticator_ie. Also rename
handshake_state_set_{own,ap}_{rsn,wpa} and fix when we call
handshake_state_setup_own_ciphers. As a result
handshake_state_set_authenticator, if needed, should be called before
handshake_state_set_{own,ap}_{rsn,wpa}.
There was somewhat overlapping functionality in the device_watch
infrastructure as well as the netdev_event_watch. This commit combines
the two into a single watch based on the netdev object and cleans up the
various interface additions / removals.
With this commit the interfaces are created when the netdev/device is
switched to Powered=True state AND when the netdev iftype is also in the
correct state for that interface. If the device is brought down, then
all interfaces except the .Device interface are removed.
This will make it easy to implement Device.Mode property properly since
most nl80211 devices need to be brought into Powered=False state prior
to switching the iftype.
The way that netdev_set_linkmode_and_operstate was used resulted in
potential crashes when the netdev was destroyed. This is because netdev
was given as data to l_netlink_send and could be destroyed between the
time of the call and the callback. Since the result of calls to
netdev_set_linkmode_and_operstate is inconsequential, it isn't really
worthwhile tracking these calls in order to cancel them.
This patch simplies the handling of these rtnl calls, makes sure that
netdev isn't passed as user data and rewrites the
netdev_set_linkmode_and_operstate signature to be more consistent with
rtnl_set_powered.
Since all netdevs share the rtnl l_netlink object, it was possible for
netdevs to be destroyed with outstanding commands still executing on the
rtnl object. This can lead to crashes and other nasty situations.
This patch makes sure that Powered requests are always tracked via
set_powered_cmd_id and the request is canceled when netdev is destroyed.
This also implies that netdev_set_powered can now return an -EBUSY error
in case a request is already outstanding.
This removes the authenticator bit in eapol_sm as well as unifies
eapol_register_authenticator and eapol_register. Taking advantage
of the handshake state authenticator bit we no longer have a need
for 2 separate register functions.
ap, and adhoc were also updated to set the authenticator bit in
the handshake and only use eapol_register to register their sm's.
netdev was updated to use the authenticator bit when choosing the
correct key address for adhoc.
In order to plug SAE into the existing connect mechanism the actual
CMD_CONNECT message is never sent, rather sae_register takes care
of sending out CMD_AUTHENTICATE. This required some shuffling of
code in order to handle both eapol and sae. In the case of non-SAE
authentication everything behaves as it did before. When using SAE
an sae_sm is created when a connection is attempted but the eapol_sm
is not. After SAE succeeds it will start association and then create
the eapol_sm and start the 4-way handshake.
This change also adds the handshake SAE events to device and
initializes SAE in main.
Our logic would set CONTROL_PORT_OVER_NL80211 even in cases where
CONTROL_PORT wasn't used (e.g. for open networks). While the kernel
ignored this attribute in this case, it is nicer to set this only if
CONTROL_PORT is intended to be used.
SAE will require some of the same CMD_ASSOCIATE building code that
FT currently uses. This breaks out the common code from FT into
netdev_build_cmd_associate_common.
These will issue a JOIN/LEAVE_IBSS to the kernel. There is
a TODO regarding network configuration. For now, only the
SSID is configurable. This configuration is also required
for AP, but needs to be thought out. Since the current
AP Dbus API has nothing related to configuration items
such as freq/channel or RSN elements they are hard coded,
and will be for Ad-Hoc as well (for now).
Now that the device mode can be changed, netdev must check that
the iftype is correct before starting a connection or disconnecting.
netdev_connect, netdev_connect_wsc, and netdev_disconnect now check
that the iftype is station before continuing.
With the introduction of Ad-Hoc, its not as simple as choosing
aa/spa addresses when setting the keys. Since Ad-Hoc acts as
both the authenticator and supplicant we must check how the netdev
address relates to the particular handshake object as well as
choose the correct key depending on the value of the AA/SPA address.
802.11 states that the higher of the two addresses is to be used
to set the key for the Ad-Hoc connection.
A simple helper was added to choose the correct addressed based on
netdev type and handshake state. netdev_set_tk also checks that
aa > spa in the handshake object when in Ad-Hoc mode. If this is
true then the keys from that handshake are used, otherwise return
and the other handshake key will be used (aa will be > spa).
The station/ap mode behaves exactly the same as before.
For Ad-Hoc networks, the kernel takes care of auth/assoc
and issues a NEW_STATION event when that is complete. This
provides a way to notify when NEW_STATION events occur as
well as forward the MAC of the station to Ad-Hoc.
The two new API's added:
- netdev_station_watch_add()
- netdev_station_watch_remove()
This removes the need for duplicate code in AP/netdev for issuing
a DEL_STATION command. Now AP can issue a DEL_STATION with
netdev_del_station, and specify to either disassociate or deauth
depending on state.
If netdev fails to set the keys, there was no way for device/ap to
know. A new handshake event was added for this. The key setting
failure function was also fixed to support both AP/station iftypes.
It will now automatically send either a disconnect or del_station
depending on the interface type.
In similar manner, netdev_handshake_failed was also modified to
support both AP/station iftypes. Now, any handshake event listeners
should call netdev_handshake_failed upon a handshake failure
event, including AP.
Right now iwd uses Control Port over NL80211 feature if the kernel /
driver supports it. On some kernels this feature is still buggy, so add
an iwd.conf entry to allow the user to override id.
For now the default is to disable this feature until it is more stable.
These checks allow both a station and authenticator to use
the same netdev key install functions. For NEW_KEY and
SET_STATION, the iftype is checked and either handshake->aa
or ->spa is used as the station address for the KEY/STATION
commands. Also, in the failure cases, a disconnect command
is issued only if the iftype is station as this doesn't
apply to AP.
Handshake related netdev events were removed in favor of
handshake events. Now events will be emitted on the handshake
object related to the 4-way handshake and key settings. Events
are:
HANDSHAKE_EVENT_STARTED
HANDSHAKE_EVENT_SETTING_KEYS
HANDSHAKE_EVENT_COMPLETE
HANDSHAKE_EVENT_FAILED
Right now, since netdev only operates in station mode, nothing
listens for COMPLETE/FAILED, as device/wsc gets notified by the
connect_cb when the connection was successful. The COMPLETE/
FAILED were added in preperation for AP moving into eapol/netdev.
