[OpenWrt-Devel] hostapd: Fix wps button hotplug script to handle multiple radios

Hostapd's control file location was changed in 2013, and that has apparently 
broken the wps button hotplug script in cases where there are multiple radios 
and wps is possibly configured also for the second radio. The current wps 
button hotplug script always handles only the first radio.

https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/package/network/services/hostapd/files/wps-hotplug.sh

The reason is that the button hotplug script seeks directories like 
/var/run/hostapd*, as the hostapd-phy0.conf files were earlier in 
per-interface subdirectories.

Currently the *.conf files are directly in /var/run and the control sockets 
are in /var/run/hostapd, but there is no subdirectory for each radio.

root@OpenWrt:/# ls /var/run/hostapd*
/var/run/hostapd-phy0.conf  /var/run/hostapd-phy1.conf

/var/run/hostapd:
wlan0  wlan1

The hotplug script was attempted to be fixed after the hostapd change by 
r38986 in Dec2013, but that change only unbroke the script for the first 
radio, but left it broken for multiple radios.
https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/38986/

The script fails to find subdirectories with [ -d "$dir" ], and passes just 
the only found directory /var/run/hostapd, leading into activating only the 
first radio, as hostapd_cli defaults to first socket found inthe passed 
directory:
root@OpenWrt:/# hostapd_cli -?
...
usage: hostapd_cli [-p<path>] [-i<ifname>] [-hvB] [-a<path>] \
                    [-G<ping interval>] [command..]
...
    -p<path>     path to find control sockets (default: /var/run/hostapd)
...
    -i<ifname>   Interface to listen on (default: first interface found in the
                 socket path)

Below is a run with the default script and with my proposed solution.


Default script (with logging added):
==================================
root@OpenWrt:/# cat /etc/rc.button/wps
#!/bin/sh

if [ "$ACTION" = "pressed" -a "$BUTTON" = "wps" ]; then
         for dir in /var/run/hostapd*; do
                 [ -d "$dir" ] || continue
                 logger "WPS activated for: $dir"
                 hostapd_cli -p "$dir" wps_pbc
         done
fi

 >>>> WPS BUTTON PRESSED <<<<<

root@OpenWrt:/# hostapd_cli -p /var/run/hostapd -i wlan0 wps_get_status

wlan0 got WPS activated, while wlan1 remained inactive.


I have modified the script to search for sockets instead of directories and 
to use the "-i" option with hostapd_cli, and now the script properly 
activates wps for both radios. As "-i" needs the interface name instead of 
the full path, the script first changes dir to /var/run/hostapd to get simply 
the interface names.

Modified script (with logging):
===============================
root@OpenWrt:/# cat /etc/rc.button/wps
#!/bin/sh

if [ "$ACTION" = "pressed" -a "$BUTTON" = "wps" ]; then
         cd /var/run/hostapd
         for dir in *; do
                 [ -S "$socket" ] || continue
                 logger "WPS activated for: $socket"
                 hostapd_cli -i "$socket" wps_pbc
         done
fi

 >>>> WPS BUTTON PRESSED <<<<<

root@OpenWrt:/# hostapd_cli -p /var/run/hostapd -i wlan0 wps_get_status
PBC Status: Active
Last WPS result: None
root@OpenWrt:/# hostapd_cli -p /var/run/hostapd -i wlan1 wps_get_status
PBC Status: Active
Last WPS result: None

Tue Apr 14 18:53:06 2015 user.notice root: WPS activated for: wlan1

Both radios got their WPS activated properly.

I am not sure if my solution is optimal, but it seems to work. WPS button is 
maybe not that often used functionality, but it might be fixed in any case. 
Routers with multiple radios are common now, so the bug is maybe more 
prominent than earlier.

The modified script has been in a slightly different format in my community 
build since r42420 in September 2014.
