BTW, could you give me some instructions for problems belows In my plan, I will try to add the easiest scenario first: i. press the pbc on AP ii. NM trigger scan to know the AP is ready for WPS via PBC method iii. NM trigger the wpa_supplicant to start the PBC action vi. the connection between STA(NM) and AP is constructed With the WPS patch in the first email, I believe that if the user trigger a scan in NM after the pbc of an AP is pressed, NM will know there is an AP ready for WPS. But in iii), I don't know when the user select an AP to connect on the nm-applet, where is the corresponding function call in NM. I am trying to figure out the flow of triggering the wpa_supplicant to connect to the selected AP from NM.

That's what some report (google) worked for them. First I thought it worked for me too. But alas, after these wakeup scripts automaically reconnect works sometimes, sometimes not, same as now, I agree it must have something to do with the driver, as the Intel always works. AND the same network manager (in Kubuntu 14.04) worked well, while in 14.10 not. To me it seems in 14.04 it also connected faster, so fast that when I opened the lid and passed the screen saver password I would be already connected (< 3 sec). OTOH NM state machine seems to get confused and does not recover. While when manually connect it always works. So it seems the code path on autoreconnect is different, or there is a bug in the state machine that only pops up immediately after resume. But you have a point: could it be the ath9k never notifies that the scan is ready? Would that be after a certain kernel? But I used 14.04 with kernel 3.17 (no problem) and 14.10 with 3.17 (and now 3.18) ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

Re: Add WPS information parsing in foreach_property_cb
Yes, I really need some instructions to decrease the time for understanding the behavior between NM and wpa_supplicant. In my plan, I will try to add the easiest scenario first: i. press the pbc on AP ii. NM trigger scan to know the AP is ready for WPS via PBC method iii. NM trigger the wpa_supplicant to start the PBC action vi. the connection between STA(NM) and AP is constructed With the WPS patch in the first email, I believe that if the user trigger a scan in NM after the pbc of an AP is pressed, NM will know there is an AP ready for WPS.

I am trying to figure out the flow of triggering the wpa_supplicant to connect to the selected AP from NM.

It's not set in stone but a starting point for the 1.2 cycle: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager/12FeaturesPlanning If anyone has suggestions, questions, wants things clarified, things they would like to claim or work on, lets start that discussion here.

It looks to me like the issues are exclusively driver and/or supplicant problems. In the failed automatic log, the access point and the device don't agree on state, so the access point rejects the device. That starts a reconnect attempt which then apparently fails at the driver level because the AP never responds to teh driver's association attempts. Later on, the supplicant enters the scanning state but has to time that out because the driver never notifies the supplicant that the scan has finished. Even later, the supplicant screws up by trying to associate with 00:00:00:00:00:00 and then it simply falls over. One thing you could do is try to set up a resume-time script that just does 'rmmod ath9k; modprobe ath9k' and see if that fixes most of your issues; if so then it's usually an indication of driver bugs. Given that iwlwifi works fine on the machine, I think the issues are specific to the ath9k driver, and not the mac80211 stack (which iwlwifi also uses).
