wpa_supplicant: Clear blacklist when SSID configs change If the stored configurations for an SSID have changed, we can no longer trust the current blacklist state of that SSID, since the updated configs could change the behavior of the network. E.g., the BSS could be blacklisted due to a bad password, and the config could be updated to store the correct password. In this case, keeping the BSS in the blacklist will prevent the user from connecting to the BSS after the correct password has been updated. Add the value was_changed_recently to the wpa_ssid struct. Update this value every time a config is changed through wpa_set_config(). Check this value in wpa_blacklist_get() to clear the blacklist whenever the configs of current_ssid have changed. This solution was chosen over simply clearing the blacklist whenever configs change because the user should be able to change configs on an inactive SSID without affecting the blacklist for the currently active SSID. This way, the blacklist won't be cleared until the user attempts to connect to the inactive network again. Furthermore, the blacklist is stored per-BSSID while configs are stored per-SSID, so we don't have the option to just clear out certain blacklist entries that would be affected by the configs. Finally, the function wpa_supplicant_reload_configuration() causes the configs to be reloaded from scratch, so after a call to this function all bets are off as to the relevance of our current blacklist state. Thus, we clear the entire blacklist within this function. Signed-off-by: Kevin Lund <kglund@google.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org>

wpa_supplicant: Implement time-based blacklisting wpa_supplicant keeps a blacklist of BSSs in order to prevent repeated associations to problematic APs*. Currently, this blacklist is completely cleared whenever we successfully connect to any AP. This causes problematic behavior when in the presence of both a bad AP and a good AP. The device can repeatedly attempt to roam to the bad AP because it is clearing the blacklist every time it connects to the good AP. This results in the connection constantly ping-ponging between the APs, leaving the user stuck without connection. Instead of clearing the blacklist, implement timeout functionality which allows association attempts to blacklisted APs after some time has passed. Each time a BSS would be added to the blacklist, increase the duration of this timeout exponentially, up to a cap of 1800 seconds. This means that the device will no longer be able to immediately attempt to roam back to a bad AP whenever it successfully connects to any other AP. Other details: The algorithm for building up the blacklist count and timeout duration on a given AP has been designed to be minimally obtrusive. Starting with a fresh blacklist, the device may attempt to connect to a problematic AP no more than 6 times in any ~45 minute period. Once an AP has reached a blacklist count >= 6, the device may attempt to connect to it no more than once every 30 minutes. The goal of these limits is to find an ideal balance between minimizing connection attempts to bad APs while still trying them out occasionally to see if the problems have stopped. The only exception to the above limits is that the blacklist is still completely cleared whenever there are no APs available in a scan. This means that if all nearby APs have been blacklisted, all APs will be completely exonerated regardless of their blacklist counts or how close their blacklist entries are to expiring. When all nearby APs have been blacklisted we know that every nearby AP is in some way problematic. Once we know that every AP is causing problems, it doesn't really make sense to sort them beyond that because the blacklist count and timeout duration don't necessarily reflect the degree to which an AP is problematic (i.e. they can be manipulated by external factors such as the user physically moving around). Instead, its best to restart the blacklist and let the normal roaming algorithm take over to maximize our chance of getting the best possible connection quality. As stated above, the time-based blacklisting algorithm is designed to be minimally obtrusive to user experience, so occasionally restarting the process is not too impactful on the user. *problematic AP: rejects new clients, frequently de-auths clients, very poor connection quality, etc. Signed-off-by: Kevin Lund <kglund@google.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org>
