Description ota 2020-09-23 05:54:30 UTC

$ ifconfig wlan create wlandev ath0 up
$ wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

prints the following error.

ioctl[SIOCS80211, op=20, val=0, arg_len=7]: Invalid argument

Somehow my wireless connection seems to be working okay,though.
This is new after switching to 12.2-BETA.

It's fine; this is part of adding more compile time flags to enable features in hostap/wpa_supplicant that we don't yet implement.

In this instance it's trying to clear some other crypto key slots that net80211 doesn't yet support.
