[PATCH v1] bluetooth: Enforce classic key size verification.

[PATCH v1] bluetooth: Enforce classic key size verification.

[Alain Michaud]

This change introduces a new configuration to strictly enforce key size
checks.  This ensures that systems are in a secured configuration by
default while allowing for a compatible posture via a Kconfig option to
support controllers who may not support the read encryption key size
command.

I would drop the CLASSIC part here since it doesn’t really matter that we can enforce this in the host for LE. In general we require the hardware to give us all basics. So I would just do

	config BT_ENFORCE_ENC_KEY_SIZE

I addition, I think that I want to put this behind BT_EXPERT option and actually have this default to n. Distributions or products should be conscious about enabling this. Otherwise I am fine doing this.

I do not need to check if this is best place. So actually I would like to keep the controller in unconfigured state if a command is missing. It would stay in unconfigured state forever since there is no way to undo it.

So if the Read Encryption Key Size command is supported, I would like to set the Supported_Options bit. And the Missing_Options bit would be set depending on this new Kconfig option.

The real advantage with doing it like this is that when a controller is unconfigured, it is easy to detect and can be skipped for systems that have multiple controllers attached.

One fun part of course is that you could disable BR/EDR and enable LE and this option could become allowed again. I would have to check if we can do that with existing mgmt commands and it would flip the Missing_Options bit.

This change is not needed at all if you can not bring up a controller that missing the command.

I may need some more guidance on how to leave it in an unconfigured
state the right way.

This change is different as it deals with the command failing for any
reasons.  In that case it would be wrong to assume the key size is 16.

I will look into this, but it will take me a bit since I need to my brain back into the right mind to grok the init procedure.

If this way of exposing this, then I might have to give this a spin and test it with the emulator.

Good point actually. However just forcing disconnect is not going to work then. Wouldn’t it be enough to set the conn->enc_key_size to 0. The existing code should take care of gracefully rejecting the L2CAP connection. It should be the same as when the Read Encryption Key Size command returns a value lower than the required key size.

Ack.  This and the other bit error will likely force me to learn to
use the emulator.

> Good point actually. However just forcing disconnect is not going to work then. Wouldn’t it be enough to set the conn->enc_key_size to 0. The existing code should take care of gracefully rejecting the L2CAP connection. It should be the same as when the Read Encryption Key Size command returns a value lower than the required key size.
Indeed, setting it to 0 would also work.  I'll make this change.
