A problem has been found in recent kernels where multiple calls using SIOCGIWSTATS return the same, identical value.
This behaviour is observable both using 'iwconfig <dev>' and wavemon info screen, where it was reported in [1]. It looks as if this is a WEXT issue, since on the same system multiple 'iw dev <devname> station dump' calls return different signal level values. I can confirm the behaviour on davem 4.1.0-rc6 net tree at commit c46a024ea5, it has been reported on [1] for fedora 21 with kernel-4.0.4-201/2 as well. That report also stated that the behaviour does not occur on kernel-3.19.7-200. Have not had time to bisect yet. Thanks for any hints that can help resolve this.
