[pkg-wpa-devel] Bug#369054: wpasupplicant: Loosing wifi with "CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys" message

[Mohammed Adnène Trojette]

Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 0.4.8-4
Severity: important


Hi,

this is a short time (around two weeks) since I do not manage to have
wpasupplicant work correctly through my /etc/network/interfaces
configuration.

Here it is:

    |  auto eth1
    |  iface eth1 inet static
    |  address 10.0.4.2
    |  netmask 255.0.0.0
    |  broadcast 10.255.255.255
    |  gateway 10.0.2.2
    |     wpa-driver wext
    |     wpa-ssid coloc
    |     wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
    |     wpa-psk "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
    |     wpa-channel 3

But when I suspend to RAM and then wake, or if I get a dhclient
running for my eth0 (wired) interface, I loose all wireless and
/etc/init.d/networking restart does not work anymore.

Here is what I get when I launch wpa_cli:

    |  Selected interface 'eth1'
    |  
    |  Interactive mode
    |  
    |  > <2>Trying to associate with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94 (SSID='coloc' freq=0 MHz)
    |  <2>Associated with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94
    |  <2>Authentication with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94 timed out.

    |  <2>Trying to associate with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94 (SSID='coloc' freq=0 MHz)
    |  <2>Trying to associate with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94 (SSID='coloc' freq=0 MHz)
    |  <2>Trying to associate with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94 (SSID='coloc' freq=0 MHz)
    |  <2>Trying to associate with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94 (SSID='coloc' freq=0 MHz)
    |  <2>Associated with 00:0f:66:d3:55:94

And weirdly, the interface gets to associate and work correctly as soon
as I reboot my access point... And no, there is no problem with my
access point.

I don't know if this is something directly related to wpasupplicant
(I've tried applying #365525's patch but in vain) or maybe another soft,
like udev (one of the only packages that I got upgraded within the last
two weeks).

Please could you have a look and tell me what to try or what to provide
for debugging?
