Rany Hany 65a1c666f2 hostapd: add SAE support for wifi-station and optimize PSK file creation
Regarding SAE support in wifi-station:

Important Note: Unlike PSK wifi-stations, both `mac` and `key` options are required
to make it work. With PSK, hostapd used to perform a brute-force match to find which
PSK entry to use, but with SAE this is infeasible due to SAE's design.

When `mac` is omitted, it will allow any MAC address to use the SAE password if it
didn't have a MAC address assigned to it, but this could only be done once.
The last wildcard entry would be used.

Also, unlike "hostapd: add support for SAE in PPSK option" (commit 913368a),
it is not required to set `sae_pwe` to `0`. This gives it a slight advantage
over using PPSK that goes beyond not needing RADIUS.

Example Configuration:

```
config wifi-vlan
        option iface default_radio0
        option name 999
        option vid 999
        option network management

config wifi-station
        # Allow user with MAC address 00:11:22:33:44:55 and matching
        # key "secretadminpass" to access the management network.
        option iface default_radio0
        option vid 999
        option mac '00:11:22:33:44:55'
        option key secretadminpass

config wifi-vlan
        option iface default_radio0
        option name 100
        option vid 100
        option network guest

config wifi-station
        # With SAE, when 'mac' is omitted it will be the fallback in case no
        # other MAC address matches. It won't be possible for a user that
        # has a matching MAC to use this network (i.e., 00:11:22:33:44:55
        # in this example).
        option iface default_radio0
        option vid 100
        option key guestpass
```

Regarding PSK file creation optimization:

This patch now conditionally runs `hostapd_set_psk_file` depending on `auth_type`.
Previously, `hostapd_set_psk` would always execute `hostapd_set_psk_file`, which
would create a new file if `wifi-station` was in use even if PSK was not enabled.
This change checks the `auth_type` to ensure that it is appropriate to parse the
`wifi-station` entries and create those files.

Furthermore, we now only configure `wpa_psk_file` when it is a supported option
(i.e., psk or psk-sae is used). Previously, we used to configure it when it was
not necessary. While it didn't cause any issues, it would litter `/var/run` with
unnecessary files. This patch fixes that case by configuring it depending on the
`auth_type`.

The new SAE support is aligned with these PSK file changes.

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Download

Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.

If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.

An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or macOS system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.7+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
