2018-10-20 Thread Michael Biebl
What happens if you manually (as root) execute
/lib/systemd/systemd-rfkill

Does this have any influence on your wifi connection?

systemd-rfkill seems to to be a symptom of your problem not the cause.
"something" is triggering rfkill block/unblock requests for your WiFi
hardware and systemd-rfkill reacts on that.

Can you provide a "udevadm monitor" log with systemd-rfkill masked and
one without it being masked.

Ideally mark in the log when the disconnects happen.

Sorry, the file reportbug placed in /tmp was some kind of weird also.

The short version is, frequent disconnects using iwlfifi device:

$ lspci -nnk | grep Shiloh
02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN 
[Shiloh] Network Connection [8086:4237]

...seem to be fixed by masking systemd-rfkill service and target.
FYI

Thanks,
bw

I don't see a systemd bug report here. Please elaborate.
