Venkat Chimata 45eb5c9a6b ieee8021x / hostapd: Fix 802.1x + DVLAN issues
ieee8021x
---------
1. Handle link_up events and update hostapd config
2. For certains scenarios, we need to remove and add
   instead of reload (reload did not work).
   Consider the following scenario -
   Say on CIG 186w as an example
   eth0.4086 interface exists with some non-ieee8021x config.
   Push ieee8021x config. In general the flow is that
   reload_config is called followed by invocation of services (from ucentral-schema)
   Services inovation does n't wait until the configi reloaded ie in this context
   ieee8021x service is invoked much before the network interfaces are recreated.
   That is not correct. To handle this, we capture link-up events
   and remove the existing interface (in hostapd as shown below) and add again
3. For swconfig platforms, the names contain a dot. Handle that gracefully in
   ubus_unsub_object while adding hostapd interface
4. Add better logging using log.syslog

hostapd
---------
In case of swconfig switches, the basename of the interface should be based on the last dot.
Earlier it was done based on the first dot, which would result in incorrect basename.
For example if the interface name is eth0.4087 then the vlan->ifname would be eth0.4087.  (A dot at the end) .
Before this patch, the basename was returned as eth0. It should be eth0.4087

Also fixed the return code by adding a default value of 0 and removed an unncessary check
for if_add before ubus add call.

OpenWiFi AP NOS

OpenWrt-based access point network operating system (AP NOS) for TIP OpenWiFi. Read more at openwifi.tip.build.

Building

Setting up your build machine

Building requires a recent Linux installation. Older systems without Python 3.7 will have trouble. See this guide for details: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/toolchain/beginners-build-guide

Install build packages on Debian/Ubuntu (or see above guide for other systems):

sudo apt install build-essential libncurses5-dev gawk git libssl-dev gettext zlib1g-dev swig unzip time rsync python3 python3-setuptools python3-yaml

Doing a native build on Linux

Use ./build.sh <target>, or follow the manual steps below:

  1. Clone and set up the tree. This will create an openwrt/ directory.
./setup.py --setup    # for subsequent builds, use --rebase instead
  1. Select the profile and base package selection. This setup will install the feeds and packages and generate the .config file.
cd openwrt
./scripts/gen_config.py linksys_ea8300
  1. Build the tree (replace -j 8 with the number of cores to use).
make -j 8 V=s

Build output

The build results are located in the openwrt/bin/ directory:

Type Path
Firmware images openwrt/bin/targets/<target>/<subtarget>/
Kernel modules openwrt/bin/targets/<target>/<subtarget>/packages/
Package binaries openwrt/bin/packages/<platform>/<feed>/

Developer Notes

Branching model

  • main - Stable dev branch
  • next - Integration branch
  • staging-* - Feature/bug branches
  • release/v#.#.# - Release branches (major.minor.patch)

Repository structure

Build files:

  • Makefile - Calls Docker environment per target
  • dock-run.sh - Dockerized build environment
  • docker/Dockerfile - Dockerfile for build image
  • build.sh - Build script
  • setup.py - Clone and set up the tree
  • config.yml - Specifies OpenWrt version and patches to apply

Directories:

  • feeds/ - OpenWiFi feeds
  • patches/ - OpenWiFi patches applied during builds
  • profiles/ - Per-target kernel configs, packages, and feeds

uCentral packages

AP-NOS packages implementing the uCentral protocol include the following repositories (refer to the ucentral feed for a full list):
