Some deployed WPS implementations fail to parse zero-length attributes.
As a workaround, send a null character if the device attribute string is
empty. This allows default values (empty strings) to be used without
interop issues.
Before this change, it looked like an AP that was using wsccmd did not
get activated since wsccmd left the Selected Registrar Config Methods
attribute to be zero. Since Device Password ID can be used to
distinguish PBC from any other method, use only it to figure out whether
PBC or PIN method is active.
It seems that for WPS registration we should use the same authentication
timeout as for ieee8021x, no? (See patch attached.) On slow platforms
public keys computation may take around 4-5 seconds (we actually stuck
on this issue).
Set ctrl_interface to non-empty value in INTERFACE_ADD to avoid
ctrl_iface.c assuming the control interface is not to be enabled. This
fixes the dynamically added interface to use control interface.
The NSIS installer will now add Windows registry entries for
wpa_supplicant during installation and removes them during
uninstallation. This allows wpa_gui to start wpasvc and add new
interfaces without requiring the user to do any manual registry
editing.
"Add interface" command in File menu can now be used to add a new
network interface to running wpa_supplicant (using INTERFACE_ADD control
interface command). In addition, the network interface is added into
Windows registry (with skip_on_error) for future use. This functionality
is currently enabled only for Windows builds. The user is also prompted
about the possibility of adding an interface if no interfaces are
enabled. This makes it easier to get started without having to touch
registry manually.
This can be used to include binding information for multiple interfaces
in Windows registry and only use the ones that match with an available
network interface.
The new INTERFACE_LIST global control interface command can be used to
request a list of all available network interfaces that could be used
with the enabled driver wrappers. This could be used to enable
interfaces automatically by external programs (e.g., wpa_gui).
Driver wrappers can now register global_init() and global_deinit()
driver_ops handlers to get a global data structure that can be shared
for all interfaces. This allows driver wrappers to initialize some
functionality (e.g., interface monitoring) before any interfaces have
been initialized.
UUID-E is not required to be present in Beacon frame, so we need to
accept scan results that do not have UUID-E as a valid PBC situation as
long as not more than one AP is in active PBC mode.
wpa_gui will now ask user whether the wpasvc service should be started
if it is not running. In addition, File menu has items for starting and
stopping the service.
Change association behavior to match with ap_scan=1 when WPS is used in
ap_scan=2 mode with wildcard SSID matching. In addition, allow hardcoded
BSSID to be used to select AP even if selected registrar attribute is
not present.
A separate cross compiler mkspecs file (win32-x-g++) is now used to
configure all build options so the setup-mingw-cross-compiling hack is
not needed anymore. Furthermore, the MinGW setup is now on path, so no
need to specify extra PATH changes for it.
This callback is now used to stop wpa_supplicant from trying to continue
using parameters (most likely, device password) that do not work in a
loop. In addition, wpa_gui can now notify user of failed registration.
The event callback will be used for various event messages and the M2D
notification is the first such message. It is used to notify wpa_gui
about Registrar not yet knowing the device password (PIN).
dot11RSNAConfigGroupUpdateTimeOut and
dot11RSNAConfigPairwiseUpdateTimeOut MIB variables were only used in
draft versions of IEEE 802.11i, so rename these in order not to use
confusing name here.
Replaced EAPOL-Key timeout to use following timeouts (in
milliseconds): 100,1000,1000,1000 (this was 1000,1000,1000,0). There
is no point in sending out the final EAPOL-Key frame which would be
immediately followed by disconnection. After the change to allow
response to any pending EAPOL-Key frame, it is fine to send the first
retransmission quickly to avoid long wait in cases where Supplicant
did not receive the first frame for any reason. The new sequence will
still provide 3.1 seconds of time to get any response frame, so this
does not reduce the previous time.
We need to be a bit more careful when removing the WPS configuration
block since wpa_s->current_ssid may still be pointing at it. In
addition, registrar pointer in wps_context will need to be cleared
since the context data is now maintained over multiple EAP-WSC runs.
Without this, certain WPS operations could have used freed memory.
The specific AP (BSSID) can now be selected through scan results for
WPS (WPS pushbutton on the network configuration dialog). When a BSSID
is selected, AP device PIN (e.g., from a label) can be used to configure
the AP by acting as a Registrar.
Instead of sending out EAP-Failure on errors (on AP) or stopping (on
Supplicant), send a NACK message based on the allowed EAP state machine
transitions for EAP-WSC.
Accept response to any pending request, not just the last one. This
gives the Supplicant more time to reply since hostapd will now allow up
to three seconds for the reply to the first EAPOL-Key frame transmission
(and two seconds for the first retry and one second for the last) while
the previous version invalidated any old request immediately when
sending a retransmitted frame.
If the Supplicant replies to more than one request, only the first reply
to arrive at the Authenticator will be processed. As far as the
Supplicant is concerned, this behavior does not differ from the previous
one except for being less likely to cause unneeded retransmissions of
EAPOL-Key frames.
This can help in cases where power saving is used when the group key is
rekeyed or when there is excessive traffic on the channel that can delay
(or drop) EAPOL-Key frames.
Whenever new scan results include WPS AP(s) and the client is not
associated, send a notification message to control interface monitors.
This makes it easier for GUIs to notify the user about possible WPS
availability without having to go through the scan results.
