mt7612u AP mode ? #5

Open dmascord opened 6 years ago

dmascord commented 6 years ago

Hi Lorenzo,

Thank you for your hard work getting the USB mode of the mt7612 working, it is quite usable!

I was wondering how it is possible to enable AP mode in your driver? I don't mind getting my hands dirty and coding, but some direction would be great.

Cheers,

Damien

LorenzoBianconi commented 6 years ago

@dmascord I planned to work on upstream merging first and then work on AP support (best effort). I would suggest to start looking at mtk sdk

dmascord commented 6 years ago

Hi Lorenzo,

That code looks very different to your code set. Is there a mt76 variant that works with AP, so I can use that as a code base ? (so we keep all the functions named the same etc).

Cheers,

Damien

LorenzoBianconi commented 6 years ago

That is mtk reference code for mt76x2u chipsets. It supports AP/STA/IBSS/MESH

dmascord commented 6 years ago

The following patch allows the mt76x2u to "listen" as an AP, and it broadcasts it's SSID.

OK, this seems to only work with Windows 10 (with an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205), with or without DHCP. MacOSX, Android both go in the cycles of getting an IP and dropping due to timer DEAUTH/REMOVE.

I have tried with and without authentication too, and it shows the same behaviour.

If I am using the mt7612u as an STA on Windows or even MacosX, I can connect to the other mt7612u that is running as AP:

@dmascord this patch is incomplete since beacon tx/rx datapath is completely missing. Please take a look to beacon datapath for pci code. Moreover do not use c++ style comments

dmascord commented 6 years ago

I'm not sure what you mean about tx/rx datapath, since how can any STA work without it?

Are you talking about the following, which is missing in the 76x2u implementation:

tasklet_init(&dev->pre_tbtt_tasklet, mt76x2_pre_tbtt_tasklet,
             (unsigned long) dev);

Cheers,

It looks like something is going on with the association that confuses some drivers. The following logs are from my laptop attempting to connect to the mt76x2u:

[42244.086003] wlp4s0: authenticate with e8:4e:06:40:d3:17
[42244.088946] wlp4s0: send auth to e8:4e:06:40:d3:17 (try 1/3)

[42244.738425] wlp4s0: failed to remove key (1, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from hardware (-22)

A working AP using the same STA shows up differently:

[42247.271850] wlp4s0: authenticate with 26:f5:a2:27:99:a9
[42247.274216] wlp4s0: send auth to 26:f5:a2:27:99:a9 (try 1/3)
[42247.276967] wlp4s0: authenticated
[42247.277383] wlp4s0: associate with 26:f5:a2:27:99:a9 (try 1/3)
[42247.296334] wlp4s0: RX AssocResp from 26:f5:a2:27:99:a9 (capab=0x431 status=0 aid=4)

the capab and aid are different.

From what I can see the size of the key exchange between a working example, and a non working example:

EAPOL message 3 in the working case shows 177 packet length, where as the message 3 from the mt76x2u shows 169 bytes. The difference being in the WPA Key Data Length. 64 for the working case, and 56 for the non working case.

Any clues ?
