Missing BEACON_LOSS event

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello devs,

can someone help with the following issue?

I'm using a QCN9074-based device in STA mode, connected to an access point. When
the AP is powered off (without sending a deauthentication frame), the client
remains indefinitely associated. There is no disconnect, no beacon loss event,
and the RSSI remains stuck at the last known value.

Here is what I see in the logs:

    daemon.debug wpa_supplicant[6960]: nl80211: Drv Event 64 (NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_CQM) received for wlan0
    daemon.debug wpa_supplicant[6960]: nl80211: Packet loss event for 04:f0:21:bd:63:1f (num_packets 10)
    daemon.debug wpa_supplicant[6960]: wlan0: Event STATION_LOW_ACK (32) received

As a comparison, with an ath10k-based device, I get the expected disconnect sequence:

    daemon.debug wpa_supplicant[5859]: nl80211: Drv Event 64 (NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_CQM) received for wlan0
