This avoids allocating global driver state for driver wrappers that
are built in but not used. This can save some resources and avoids
failures with driver_nl80211.c that is now initializing netlink
connections for nl80211 in global_init().
This code was used only with driver_test.c to allow MLME operations
in hostapd to be tested without having to use a real radio. There
are no plans on extending this to any other use than testing and
mac80211_hwsim has now obsoled the need for this type of testing.
As such, we can drop this code from wpa_supplicant to clean up the
implementation of unnecessary complexity.
When initializing, the scheduled scan code was being called before
everything is ready. With normal scans, the first scan round is
delayed, so the initialization is finished by the time it really
starts.
Add a function that can be used to request a delayed scheduled scan.
The scan will only start after the specified time has elapsed. Call
this function instead of starting the scheduled scan directly during
driver initialization.

Pass SSIDs to be matched in scheduled scan results. Only the SSIDs
that are included in the match lists will be reported by the driver,
so the filtering can be offloaded to the hardware and the power
consumption can be reduced.

This patch uses sched_scan, if available, when the driver is
initialized. It also adds a couple of cancel operations where
appropriate.

In new Linux kernel versions (>=3.0), nl80211 adds scheduled scan
capability. In order to use this feature to its full extent, we need
to support it in the wpa_supplicant core, so that it can also be used
by other drivers.
This commit adds initial scheduled scan support operations and events.

This allows the AP to be selected based on the BSSID when WPA-PSK
is used with a passphrase. The PSK will be derived from the passphrase
after the SSID has been learned from scan results.
This implements GAS request mechanism that is aimed at being used to
replace use case specific GAS/ANQP implementations in the future.
Compared to the earlier implementation in P2P SD, this implementation
includes support for multiple concurrent requests and more thorough
validation of frames against the pending query data.
GAS header processing, including comeback and reassembly, are handled
within gas_query.c and the users of this module will only need to
provide the Query Request and process the (possibly reassembled)
Query Response.
There is no need to request periodic bgscans when the driver claims
to have capability for roaming within ESS. Ignoring the bgscan
configuration allows the same configuration file to be used both
with drivers the handle roaming and with drivers that don't.
If the driver indicates that it supports BSS selection (including
roaming within an ESS) with WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_BSS_SELECTION, modify
ap_scan=1 mode to behave like ap_scan=2 mode for BSS selection.
The initial scan is still done to avoid the need for strict
configuration of or security parameters (e.g., to figure out whether
TKIP or CCMP is being used as the group cipher). However, when
requesting the driver to connect, the bssid and freq parameters are
not provided to leave the driver in control of selecting which BSS
to use and to allow the driver to decide when to roam.
If a network configuration block is removed or modified, flush
all PMKSA cache entries that were created using that network
configuration. Similarly, invalidate EAP state (fast re-auth).
The special case for OKC on wpa_supplicant reconfiguration
(network_ctx pointer change) is now addressed as part of the
PMKSA cache flushing, so it does not need a separate mechanism
for clearing the network_ctx values in the PMKSA cache.
The previous code was trying to figure out which WPA version is
used based on the extra IEs requested for Association Request. That
did not work properly in cases where non-WPA networks are used with
some extra IEs. Fix this by using more robust mechanism for passing
the WPA versions from core wpa_supplicant to the driver_ops
associate().
Fix the previous code that was hardcoding the p2p parameter based
on the driver P2P capability regardless of whether the connection
was really used for P2P or not.
This makes sure that the old connection is not maintained if the new
configuration does not allow it anymore. In addition, it is better to
use wpa_supplicant_clear_connection() instead of just clearing
wpa_s->current_ssid here to keep things in sync.
There are some corner cases, where the wpa_supplicant_req_scan() call
may end up scheduling a scan even if we are about to start a GO. Avoid
this by explicitly marking the GO network to be selected for the next
connection.
This can be used to avoid rejection of first two 4-way handshakes every
time hostapd (or wpa_supplicant in AP/IBSS mode) is restarted. A new
command line parameter, -e, can now be used to specify an entropy file
that will be used to maintain the needed state.
It is now possible to configure the the time in seconds that
wpa_supplicant waits before requesting a new scan after failing to find
a suitable network in scan results.

Change the old design of running a single long living RSN IBSS
instance to keep a separate instance for each IBSS connection.
This fixes number of issues in getting keys set properly for
new connections and is in general quite a bit more correct
design.
Replace compile-time BSS cache expiration age and scan count by config
parameters that can be set via wpa_cli and the new D-Bus API. The latter
is done with interface properties BSSExpireAge and BSSExpireCount.
Move the code snippet to switch on bgscan over to wpa_supplicant.c
from event.c, so that it can be activated on wpa_supplicant_set_state().
Also create a centralized place to switch off bgscan. bgscan is now
turned on in COMPLETED, not ASSOCIATED.
mac80211 authentication or association operation may get stuck for some
reasons, so wpa_supplicant better use an internal timer to recover from
this.

This converts number of debugging messages to use wpa_msg() in order
to allow the interface name to be shown with the messages.
A new function, wpa_dbg(), is introduced to allow
CONFIG_NO_STDOUT_DEBUG=y builds to remove the debug strings. This is
otherwise identical with wpa_msg(), but it gets compiled out if stdout
debugging is disabled.
This makes log files much more readable if multiple interfaces
are being controlled by the same process. The interface name is
added to stdout/file/syslog entries, but not to the messages
sent to control interface monitors to avoid issues with parsing
in external programs.

Previously, both NULL and ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff addr were used in various
places to indicate default/broadcast keys. Make this more consistent
and useful by defining NULL to mean default key (i.e., used both for
unicast and broadcast) and ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff to indicate broadcast
key (i.e., used only with broadcast).
Use NULL instead of (u8 *) "" as the seq value and make sure the
driver wrapper implementations can handle NULL value. This was
previously already done in number of places, but not everywhere.
If a station received unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation
frame with reason code 6 or 7 from the current AP, there may be a
mismatch in association state between the AP and STA. Verify whether
this is the case by using SA Query procedure. If not response is
received from the AP, deauthenticate.
This implementation is only for user space SME with
driver_nl80211.c.
Some drivers are not providing exactly reliable error codes (e.g.,
with WEXT), but others may actually indicate reliable information.
Allow driver wrappers to indicate if that is the case and use
optimizations if so. For now, this improves nl80211 with
NL80211_CMD_CONNECT for a case where connection request fails.
Move the previously SME specific optimization code into generic
function that can be used from non-SME code, too, and use it to
handle disconnection events. In other words, allow disconnection
event to trigger similar optimized scanning case to handle a
common load balancing mechanism. If there is another BSS in the
same ESS when we receive a disconnection event, scan only the
known frequencies of such other BSSes on the next attempt to
speed up recovery.
When authentication or association fails when trying to connect to
a BSS in an ESS that has multiple BSSes based on previous scans,
limit the first recovery scan to only the known channels that has
been seen previously. This speeds up recovery in some of the most
commonly used load balancing mechanisms in enterprise WLAN
networks.
wpa_supplicant_set_driver() is returning an error if the first driver
in the driver list is not built in. It should continue through the
driver list until it finds one that's built in.
If IEE8021X_EAPOL is not enabled in the config, wpa_drv_set_supp_port
must be called from the supplicant, otherwise port will not be
activated after association.
The ieee80211_sta_free_hw_features() function is now used outside
the MLME code, so better make sure it gets included in the build
to avoid leaking memory.
This is needed to be able to change parameters for dynamically
created interfaces between the creation of the interface and
association/start AP commands.
Following ctrl_interface commands can now be used:
P2P_SET client_apsd disable
- disable configuration (i.e., use driver default) in client mode
P2P_SET client_apsd <BE>,<BK>,<VI>,<VO>;<max SP Length>
- enable UASPD with specific trigger configuration (0/1) per AC
(max SP Length is currently ignored)
P2P_SET go_apsd disable
- disable configuration (i.e., use driver default) in AP mode
P2P_SET go_apsd <0/1>
- disable/enable APSD in AP mode
If enabled, cross connection allows GO to forward IPv4 packets
using masquerading NAT from the P2P clients in the group to an
uplink WLAN connection. This is disabled by default and can be
enabled with "wpa_cli p2p_set cross_connect 1" on the P2P device
interface.
While this is not strictly speaking required by the P2P specification
for a not-P2P Managed Device, this can provide useful information for
the P2P manager AP and may be needed to pass certification tests.
Some NDIS drivers require a workaround to allow them to associate
with a WPS AP that is already using protection (Privacy field = 1).
Let driver_ndis.c know if the AP is already using Privacy and if so,
configure a dummy WEP key to force the driver to associate.
Add a new wpa_supplicant state: interface disabled. This can be used
to allow wpa_supplicant to be running with the network interface even
when the driver does not actually allow any radio operations (e.g.,
due to rfkill).
Allow driver_nl80211.c and driver_wext.c to start while rfkill is in
blocked state (i.e., when ifconfig up fails) and process rfkill
events to block/unblock WLAN.
This allows wpa_supplicant to be started quickly with an empty
configuration. If an external program wants to fetch scan results
from wpa_supplicant, it will need to request a scan explicitly
in this type of case.
Scan only the frequency that was used during provisioning during the
first five scans for the connection. This speeds up connection in the
most likely case where the AP remains on the same channel. If the AP is
not found after these initial scans, all channels will be scanned.
Instead of parsing the IEs in the callers, use the already existing
parser in wpa_ft.c to handle MDIE and FTIE from initial MD association
response. In addition, this provides more complete access to association
response IEs to FT code which will be needed to fix FT 4-way handshake
message 2/4.
This sets the FT Capability and Policy field in the MDIE to the values
received from the target AP (if available). This fixes the MDIE contents
during FT Protocol, but the correct value may not yet be used in initial
mobility domain association.
The actual supplicant state is exposed via a property on the interface
object. So having a separate signal StateChanged for notifying about
changes is a bad idea. The standard PropertiesChanged signal should be
used for this.
The advantage of StateChanged signal was that it includes the previous
state, but not even NetworkManager is making use of this. And tracking
the old state via the property and this signal is easily possible anyway.
The three existing enums were already depending on using the same
values in couple of places and it is just simpler to standardize on
one of these to avoid need for mapping between different enums for
the exact same thing.
This fits better in wpa_supplicant/scan.c. Couple of remaining
scan_helpers.c functions are currently used in driver wrappers,
but they can likely be removed in the future.
Get rid of wpa_supplicant_sta_rx() and add a new driver event that is
marked to be used only with driver_test.c. In addition, remove this
functionality from privsep wrapper. This is only use for client mode
MLME testing with driver_test.c.
Get more information about scans when updating BSS table information.
This allows the missing-from-scans expiration rule to work properly
when only partial set of channels or SSIDs are being scanned.
Do not try to unregister BSS objects twice (the latter one with invalid
path) and make sure all network objects get added and removed properly
(the ones read from configuration file were not being registered, but
were tried to be unregistered).
This will allow more cleanup to be done for scan results processing
since all code can now be made to depend on the BSS table instead of
the temporary scan results.
Once remaining code has been converted to use the BSS table, the new
scan results can be freed immediately after the BSS table has been
updated. In addition, filtering of BSS information should be added
to better support systems with limited resources. For now, memory
use can be limited by defining WPA_BSS_MAX_COUNT to be smaller.
Anyway, better filtering of results to only the configured networks
should be added to improve this.
Collect information from scan results into a BSS table that will not
expire information as quickly as scan results where every new scan,
no matter for how limited set of channels/SSIDs, clears all old
information.
For now, this is only used for D-Bus BSS added/removed notifications,
but this will likely be extended to be used internally instead of the
scan results to better support partial scans.
Instead of forcefully deinitializing ER immediately, give it some
time to complete unsubscription and call eloop_terminate() only once
ER code has completed its work.
When setting up an AP with wpa_supplicant, the initial connection was
not necessarily setting oper state from DORMANT to UP which would be
blocking normal data frames. Fix this by initializing new_connection
to 1 so that even the first change to COMPLETED state will end up
setting oper state.
Wait for connection (IBSS join completed) event before marking state
completed. In addition, do not use the station mode authentication
timeout since that can trigger full disconnection from IBSS when
there is a timeout with just one of the peers.
