      mac80211: Add testing functionality for TKIP · 681d1190
      Jouni Malinen authored
      TKIP countermeasures depend on devices being able to detect Michael
      MIC failures on received frames and for stations to report errors to
      the AP. In order to test that behavior, it is useful to be able to
      send out TKIP frames with incorrect Michael MIC. This testing behavior
      has minimal effect on the TX path, so it can be added to mac80211 for
      convenient use.
      
      The interface for using this functionality is a file in mac80211
      netdev debugfs (tkip_mic_test). Writing a MAC address to the file
      makes mac80211 generate a dummy data frame that will be sent out using
      invalid Michael MIC value. In AP mode, the address needs to be for one
      of the associated stations or ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff to use a broadcast
      frame. In station mode, the address can be anything, e.g., the current
      BSSID. It should be noted that this functionality works correctly only
      when associated and using TKIP.
