the driver doesnt implement multicast filter, but just turns
on promiscuous mode when a multicast address is added. but this
breaks when one actually enables and then disables promiscuous
mode with say, running snoopy.
we have to keep promisc mode active as long as multicast table
is not empty.
broadcast traffic was received back on the wire causing
duplicate address detection to break with dmat proy as
the rewritten broadcasts where observable.
the fix is to just ignore packets from ourselfs received
from the air. devether already handles loopback.
when kernel memory is exhausted, rtl8169replenish() can fail
to plant more receive descriptors and rtl8169receive() would
run over the receive tail and crash on the nil ctlr->rb[x].
rtl8169receive() is called on "Receive Descriptor Unavailable"
and "Packet Underrun" so we will try to replenish descriptors
in the beginning first in case memory was exhausted and memory
is available again and make sure not to run over the tail.
the string encoding functions touch secret key material
in a bunch of places (devtls, devcap), so make sure we do
not leak information by cache timing side channels, making
the encoding and decoding routines constant time.
we also expose the alphabets through encXchr()/decXchr()
functions so caller can find the end of a encoded string
before calling decode function (for libmp).
the base32 encoding was broken in several ways. inputs
lengths of len%5 == [2,3,4] had output truncated and
it was using non-standard alphabet. documenting the alphabet
change in the manpage.
Instead of only using a hash over the whole certificate for
white/black-listing, now we can also use a hash over the
Subject Public Key Info (SPKI) field of the certificate which
contians the public key algorithm and the public key itself.
This allows certificates to be renewed independendtly of the
public key.
X509dump() now prints the public key thumbprint in addition
to the certificate thumbprint.
tlsclient will print the certificate when run with -D flag.
okCertificate() will print the public key thumbprint in its
error string when no match has been found.
getting rid of some functions that take Byte* and instead
pass uchar* and length.
keeping the signature and public key fields in CertX509
as Bits* allows ownership transfer by swapping pointers.
use common code to copy CN from subject field.
in case we continue to send traffic (like ping) with the ap gone,
the sending would keep updating bss->lastseen which prevents the
timeout to happen to switch bss.
