Hi folks, Since upgrading to wpa_supplicant 2.7, myself and many others have hit issues with wpa_supplicant failing to connect due to invalid arguments being passed to the underlying kernel driver. Reverting to version 2.6 makes these issues go away. There is an Arch Linux bug report here that has a lot of the details: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/61119 The problem appears related to 4-way handshake offload support: ChangeLog for wpa_supplicant: 2018-12-02 - v2.7 * added support for nl80211 to offload 4-way handshake into the driver Running Linux 4.20, I see the following kernel oops when wpa_supplicant is trying to associate: kernel: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 16169 at drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg80211.c:5130 brcmf_cfg80211_set_pmk+0x50/0x70 [brcmfmac] kernel: Modules linked in: brcmfmac ipt_MASQUERADE nf_conntrack_netlink nfnetlink xfrm_user xfrm_algo fuse iptable_nat nf_nat_ipv4 xt_addrtype iptable_filter xt_conntrack nf_nat nf_conntrack nf_defrag_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv4 libcrc32c crc32c_generic br_netfilter bridge stp llc cmac bnep nls_iso8859_1 nls_cp437 vfat fat snd_hda_codec_hdmi sg crypto_user btusb btrtl btbcm btintel bluetooth asix usbnet joydev mii mousedev bcm5974 input_leds libphy ecdh_generic crc16 msr ofpart cmdlinepart intel_spi_platform intel_spi brcmutil intel_rapl spi_nor x86_pkg_temp_thermal intel_powerclamp coretemp kvm_intel mtd cfg80211 iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support i915 kvmgt vfio_mdev mdev vfio_iommu_type1 vfio kvm i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper drm snd_hda_codec_cirrus snd_hda_codec_generic snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec applesmc irqbypass input_polldev intel_cstate snd_hda_core mmc_core intel_uncore snd_hwdep intel_rapl_perf snd_pcm thunderbolt mei_me pcspkr lpc_ich intel_gtt i2c_i801 intel_pch_thermal snd_timer kernel: agpgart mei rfkill snd syscopyarea spi_pxa2xx_pci sysfillrect sysimgblt acpi_als fb_sys_fops soundcore kfifo_buf sbs evdev industrialio sbshc mac_hid spi_pxa2xx_platform ac apple_bl pcc_cpufreq facetimehd(OE) videobuf2_dma_sg videobuf2_memops videobuf2_v4l2 videobuf2_common videodev media ip_tables x_tables zfs(POE) zunicode(POE) zavl(POE) icp(POE) zcommon(POE) znvpair(POE) spl(OE) algif_skcipher af_alg hid_apple hid_generic usbhid hid dm_crypt dm_mod sd_mod crct10dif_pclmul crc32_pclmul crc32c_intel ghash_clmulni_intel ahci libahci libata scsi_mod aesni_intel xhci_pci aes_x86_64 crypto_simd xhci_hcd cryptd glue_helper [last unloaded: brcmfmac] kernel: CPU: 0 PID: 16169 Comm: wpa_supplicant Tainted: P W OE 4.20.0-arch1-1-ARCH #1 kernel: Hardware name: Apple Inc.

Any ideas what the issue could be here? If there's anything else I can do to help track down the problem, please let me know.
