With the radio work design, it is possible for a network entry to get
disabled (e.g., DISABLE_NETWORK <id>) during the time the connect or
sme-connect radio work waits to start. Previously, only the validity of
the BSS entry and BSSID/SSID was verified when starting the actual
connection step. Add call to wpas_network_disabled() to those checks to
catch the case where the network profile is disabled.

It is possible for scan result processing or BSS entry removal to occur
while there is a pending connect or sme-connect radio work with a
previously selected BSS entry. The BSS pointer was previously verified
to be valid, i.e., still point to a BSS entry, at the time the actual
connection operation is started. However, that BSS entry could have
changed to point to another BSS if the old BSS entry was either removed
or reallocated and a new BSS entry was added at the same location in
memory. This could result in the connection attempt failing to configure
parameters properly due to different BSS information (e.g., different
BSSID).
Fix this by updated the pending connect radio work data on BSS entry
updates similarly to how the last_scan_res array was updated. If the
selected BSS entry is removed, this will still result in a failed
connection, but reallocated BSS entry is now followed properly and used
when the connection work starts.

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.
Previously, pairwise and group cipher suites were configured only
when kernel SME (nl80211 connect API) was used. However, mac80211
needs this information even in the user space SME case for one
thing: to disable HT when TKIP/WEP is used. Add
NL80211_ATTR_CIPHER_SUITES_PAIRWISE to fix this special case with
user space SME. This allows mac80211 to disable HT properly when
the AP is configured with configuration that is not allowed.
mac80211 can indicate this mainly because of channel selection
conflicts with other vifs. If there is another BSS on another
channel, we should try to connect to it instead.
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.
There were various issues in how the SME (i.e., nl80211-based driver
interface) handled various authentication and association timeouts and
failures. Authentication failure was not handled at all (wpa_supplicant
just stopped trying to connect completely), authentication timeout
resulted in blacklisting not working in the expected way (i.e., the same
BSS could be selected continuously), and association cases had similar
problems.
Use a common function to handle all these cases and fix the blacklist
operation. Use smaller delay before trying to scan again during the
initial cycle through the available APs to speed up connection. Add
a special case for another-BSS-in-the-same-ESS being present to
speed up recovery from networks with multiple APs doing load balancing
in various odd ways that are deployed out there.
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
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.
wpa_s->bssid is already cleared by mark_disassoc() when we're getting the

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.
When using wpa_supplicant SME (i.e., using nl80211), the rsn_supp
module was not informed of the WPA/RSN IE that was used in
(Re)Association Request frame. This broke roaming between APs that
use different security policy (e.g., changing between WPA/TKIP and
WPA2/CCMP APs) or when using PMKSA caching.
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.
cfg80211/mac80211 can get into somewhat confused state if the AP only
disassociates us and leaves us in authenticated state. For now, force
the state to be cleared with deauthentication to avoid confusing errors
if we try to associate with the AP again. This gets rid of 30 second
delay (scan timeout) in cases where only a disassociation frame is
received from the AP.
This makes it clearer which files are including header from src/common.
Some of these cases should probably be cleaned up in the future not to
do that.
In addition, src/common/nl80211_copy.h and wireless_copy.h were moved
into src/drivers since they are only used by driver wrappers and do not
need to live in src/common.
Force deauthentication from the AP to clear mac80211 state (it would get
stuck with future scans if the AP is left in authenticated, but not
associated, state).
Add blacklist entry for the AP to allow other APs with worse signal
strength to be tried (e.g., when APs are trying to do load balancing
with status code 17). Reduce wait for the next scan to speed up
connection in cases where there could be other APs that could accept
association, but which show worse signal strength.
This introduces a new mechanism for collecting notification calls into
a single place (notify.c). As a result of this, most of the
wpa_supplicant code does not need to know about dbus (etc. mechanisms
that could use the notifications). Some empty placeholder functions are
also added in preparation of new dbus code that needs more event
notifications.
Need to set WEP keys before requesting authentication in order to get
Shared Key authentication working. Previously, the WEP keys were not set
at all when using SME in wpa_supplicant.
wpa_supplicant can now initialize hostapd data structures when mode=2 is
used to set up an AP. The hostapd configuration is not yet set based on
wpa_supplicant network configuration block. In addition, the glue code
for hostapd driver_ops needs number of functions that will be needed for
AP functionality.
This can be used, e.g., with mac80211-based Linux drivers with
nl80211. This allows over-the-air FT protocol to be used (IEEE
802.11r).
Since the nl80211 interface needed for this is very recent (added
today into wireless-testing.git), driver_nl80211.c has backwards
compatibility code that uses WEXT for association if the kernel does
not support the new commands. This compatibility code can be
disabled by defining NO_WEXT_COMPAT. That code will also be removed
at some point to clean up driver_nl80211.c.
