This is mainly for testing purposes to allow wpa_supplicant and hostapd
functionality to be tested both with and without using the nl80211
control port which is by default used whenever supported by the driver.
control_port=0 driver parameter will prevent that from happening.

This allows EAPOL frames to be received over the separate controlled
port once rest of the driver interface is ready for this. By itself,
this commit does not actually change behavior since cfg80211 will not be
delivering these events without them being explicitly requested.

In order to correctly encrypt rekeying frames, wpa_supplicant now checks
if a PTK is currently installed and sets the corresponding encrypt
option for tx_control_port().

Linux kernel v4.17 added the ability to request sending control port
frames via nl80211 instead of a normal network socket. Doing this
provides the device driver with ordering information between the
control port frames and the installation of keys. This empowers it to
avoid race conditions between, for example, PTK replacement and the
sending of frame 4 of the 4-way rekeying handshake in an RSNA. The
key difference between a TX_CONTROL_PORT and normal socket send is
that the device driver will certainly get any EAPOL frames comprising
a 4-way handshake before it gets the key installation call
for the derived key. By flushing its TX buffers it can then ensure
that no pending EAPOL frames are inadvertently encrypted with a key
that the peer will not yet have installed.
Update the RSN supplicant system to use this new operation for sending
EAPOL-Key frames when the driver reports that this capability is
available; otherwise, fall back to a normal Ethernet TX.
I have tested this on DMG (11ad/ay) devices with an out-of-tree Linux
driver that does not use mac80211. Without this patch I consistently see
PTK rekeying fail if message 4/4 shares a stream with other in-flight
traffic. With this patch, and the driver updated to flush the relevant TX
queue before overwriting a PTK (knowing, now, that if there was a message
4/4 related to the key installation, it has already entered the driver
queue), rekeying is reliable.
There is still data loss surrounding key installation - this problem is
alluded to in IEEE Std 802.11-2016, 12.6.21, where extended Key ID
support is described as the eventual solution. This patch aims to at
least prevent rekeying from totally breaking the association, in a way
that works on kernels as far back as 4.17 (as per Alexander Wetzel
extended Key ID support should be possible on 5.2).

Linux kernel v4.17 added the ability to request sending controlled port
frames (e.g., IEEE 802.1X controlled port EAPOL frames) via nl80211
instead of a normal network socket. Doing this provides the device
driver with ordering information between the control port frames and the
installation of keys. This empowers it to avoid race conditions between,
for example, PTK replacement and the sending of frame 4 of the 4-way
rekeying handshake in an RSNA. The key difference between the specific
control port and normal socket send is that the device driver will
certainly get any EAPOL frames comprising a 4-way handshake before it
gets the key installation call for the derived key. By flushing its TX
buffers it can then ensure that no pending EAPOL frames are
inadvertently encrypted with a key that the peer will not yet have
installed.
Add a CONTROL_PORT flag to the hostap driver API to report driver
capability for using a separate control port for EAPOL frames. This
operation is exactly like an Ethernet send except for the extra ordering
information it provides for device drivers. The nl80211 driver is
updated to support this operation when the device reports support for
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CONTROL_PORT_OVER_NL80211. Also add a driver op
tx_control_port() for request a frame to be sent over the controlled
port.

This variable is not specific to any P2P group interface and since it

This tests an error, where the p2p_long_listen information from the
wrong device was used internally in wpa_supplicant when using the
separate P2P Device interface.
Signed-off-by: Benjamin Berg <bberg@redhat.com>
The p2p_long_listen value was set on the control wpa_s struct while in a
lot of cases it operated on the p2p struct. Explicitly use the global
p2p_init_wpa_s struct in cases where we might not be operating on it
already.
Without this, simply starting a p2p_listen operation (e.g., using
wpa_cli) will not work properly. As the p2p_long_listen is set on the
controlling interface and wpas_p2p_cancel_remain_on_channel_cb() uses
p2p_init_wpa_s, it would not actually work. This results in
wpa_supplicant stopping listening after the maximum remain-on-channel
time passes when using a separate P2P Device interface.

Since NL80211_CMD_FRAME does not allow encryption to be disabled for the
frame, add a monitor interface temporarily for cases where this type of
no-encrypt frames are to be sent. The temporary monitor interface is
removed immediately after sending the frame.
This is testing functionality (only in CONFIG_TESTING_OPTIONS=y builds)
that is used for PMF testing where the AP can use this to inject an
unprotected Robust Management frame (mainly, Deauthentication or
Disassociation frame) even in cases where PMF has been negotiated for
the association.

sme_send_authentication() could fail before actually requesting the
driver to authenticate with a new AP. This could happen after
wpa_s->bssid got cleared even though in such a case, the old association
is maintained and still valid. This can result in unexpected behavior
since wpa_s->bssid would not match the current BSSID anymore.
Fix this by postponing clearing of wpa_s->bssid until the IE preparation
has been completed successfully.

I saw a case where the kernel's cfg80211 rejected hostapd's attempt to
send a neighbor report response because nl80211 flagged the frame as
offchannel-OK, but kernel rejects because channel was 100 (DFS) and so
kernel failed thinking it was constrained by DFS/CAC requirements that
do not allow the operating channel to be left (at least in FCC).
Don't set the packet as off-channel OK if we are transmitting on the
current operating channel of an AP to avoid such issues with
transmission of Action frames.

Netlink dump message may be interrupted if an internal inconsistency is
detected in the kernel code. This can happen, e.g., if a Beacon frame
from the current AP is received while NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN is used to
fetch scan results. Previously, such cases would end up not reporting an
error and that could result in processing partial data.
Modify this by detecting this special interruption case and converting
it to an error. For the NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN, try again up to 10 times
to get the full response. For other commands (which are not yet known to
fail in similar manner frequently), report an error to the caller.

This is targeting the case of MAC address change for an association
which may require the interface to be set down for a short moment.
Previously, this ended up flushing the BSS table that wpa_supplicant
maintained and that resulted in having to scan again if the MAC address
was changed between the previous scan and the connection attempt. This
is unnecessary extra latency, so maintain the BSS entries for 5 seconds
(i.e., the same time that the old scan results are consider valid for a
new connection attempt) after an interface goes down.
