I am running some tests on a haswell target with Android KitKat
(3.10.20 kernel). In this configuration our brcmfmac driver is used
with driver param 'p2p_device=1'. So we end up with wlan0 and
p2p-dev-wlan0 interfaces (can blame myself for that). The
configuration has a network configured, but I did not expect
wpa_supplicant to start association using the p2p device interface.
The wlan0 interface is already connected to the AP. How can I fix
this to assure p2p-dev-wlan0 is only used for p2p management
scenarios.
Hmm.. Can you please show the wpa_supplicant command line that is used
here and describe how that network block gets configured for the
p2p-dev-wlan0 "interface"? I would have expected that there would never
be a configuration with an enabled network block being passed for the
P2P management interface.. Internally, wpa_supplicant should not add
such for P2P groups, but I don't think there is any filtering on
configuration if something is externally trying to make wpa_supplicant
use that management interface for a station mode connection.
Hi Jouni,
Jithu informed me about the '-m' command line option so digging in git
revision history I found the commit from Ilan which kind of describes
what I am seeing
c16a759 wpa_supplicant: Add a configuration file for the P2P_DEVICE
parameters
Here is p2p_supplicant service instantiating the wpa_supplicant.
service p2p_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 \
-g@android:wpa_wlan0 -c/data/misc/wifi/p2p_supplicant.conf -dt
The p2p_supplicant.conf has update_config=1 set which is also mentioned
in the commit message. Without -m option p2p-dev-wlan0 is created using
the same config file as for wlan0 so some filtering would be required
(or use -m).

Arend
