After upgrading wpa_supplicant to 2.7-r3, I could no longer scan or connect to any wifi network. wpa_cli kept printing the following message: <3>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED ret=-22 retry=1 After checking what changed sinc 2.7-r1 I went and commented out the following two lines in the ebuild: Kconfig_style_config FILS Kconfig_style_config FILS_SK_PFS After making this change and restarting wpa_supplicant it connected back to the wifi. Could we get a use flag to disable FILS for such cases where it breaks wifi connectivity? My computer has a Broadcom BCM4352 card running with the net-wireless/broadcom-sta kernel driver package.
honestly, I think it's really odd that this causes a failure for you. that said, flag added (default on). if it doesn't help please reopen this bug so I can drop the flag. it *shouldn't* break things, but lacking any desire to find broadcom hardware to test, I'm just going to add the flag.
