Hi! Looks like hostapd lacks ocv support: # /etc/init.d/hostapd start hostapd | * Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ] hostapd | * Starting hostapd ... hostapd |Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf hostapd |Line 1651: unknown configuration item 'ocv' hostapd |1 errors found in configuration file '/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf' hostapd |Failed to set up interface with /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf hostapd |Failed to initialize interface hostapd | * start-stop-daemon: failed to start `/usr/sbin/hostapd' hostapd | * Failed to start hostapd Though ocv option with its description is present in the hostapd.conf. As can be seen from package's defconfig, ocv is present, but disabled by default: # Support Operating Channel Validation #CONFIG_OCV=y I suggest to add OCV support to the ebuild using the ocv USE flag. Just for the record: net-wireless/hostapd-2.9-r3::gentoo was built with the following: USE="crda ipv6 netlink sqlite suiteb wps -internal-tls -libressl -logwatch -savedconfig"
