I was able to reproduce this with hwsim test scripts. The GO case works fine since it postpones marking the group completed until the first client connects for an actual data association while the P2P Client role fails because of not finding the group. > This causes two problems: > 1. p2p_ext_listen_timeout() calls p2p_listen() because is_p2p_in_progress() > returns 0.

This could be fixed in other ways, but since wpa_s->global->p2p_group_formation is going to be needed anyway, that can take care of the issue here.. That said, even if there were an extended listen operation with reasonably short duration, that should work during connection operations. > 2.

This is not good.. That pointer needs to be maintained as long as there is possibility of group formation timeout getting hit. > I 'fixed' this by not clearing p2p_group_formation in > wpas_group_formation_completed() (see diff below).

In practice, that clearing of p2p_group_formation may happen due to wpa_s->p2p_go_group_formation_completed being 0 here in the future, but anyway, that is not the only change that's needed to handle this properly. I think the following changes should handle this. At least they fixed the hwsim test script I wrote for reproducing this. P2P: Complete group formation on client data connection This was already the case in the GO role where the first client connection is waited before marking wpa_s->p2p_go_group_formation_completed = 1 and clearing wpa_s->global->p2p_group_formation. However, in the P2P Client role, that was done already at the completion of the WPS exchange. This can be problematic since group formation timeout may still try to clear the group and with wpa_s->global->p2p_group_formation == NULL, the correct group interface may not be found. Fix this by postponing clearing of wpa_s->global->p2p_group_formation on the P2P Client side until the data connection has been completed and group is declared started. diff --git a/wpa_supplicant/p2p_supplicant.c b/wpa_supplicant/p2p_supplicant.c index a60ae6e..077c5fe 100644 --- a/wpa_supplicant/p2p_supplicant.c +++ b/wpa_supplicant/p2p_supplicant.c @@ -6340,6 +6340,8 @@ void wpas_p2p_wps_success(struct wpa_supplicant *wpa_s, const u8 *peer_addr, eloop_register_timeout(P2P_MAX_INITIAL_CONN_WAIT, 0, wpas_p2p_group_formation_timeout, wpa_s->parent, NULL); + /* Complete group formation on successful data connection. */ + wpa_s->p2p_go_group_formation_completed = 0; } else if (ssid) { /* * Use a separate timeout for initial data connection to @@ -6890,6 +6892,15 @@ void wpas_p2p_completed(struct wpa_supplicant *wpa_s) return; wpa_s->show_group_started = 0; + if (!wpa_s->p2p_go_group_formation_completed && + wpa_s->global->p2p_group_formation == wpa_s) { + wpa_dbg(wpa_s, MSG_DEBUG, + "P2P: Marking group formation completed on client on data connection"); + wpa_s->p2p_go_group_formation_completed = 1; + wpa_s->global->p2p_group_formation = NULL; + wpa_s->p2p_in_provisioning = 0; + wpa_s->p2p_in_invitation = 0; + } os_memset(go_dev_addr, 0, ETH_ALEN); if (ssid->bssid_set) -- 1.9.1 -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
