James,
I was messing with this some more. I was able to pull the latest
iwd-git that already has your patch in it and can confirm that using
iwd and the latest kernel that it will connect.
If I use iwctl, it works fine. If I use connmanctl, it does not unless
I have already connected using iwctl.
What happens, I think, in connmanctl is that it initiates a
connection, then says connected, but does not actually grab the dhcp
address.
connmanctl> agent on
Agent registered
connmanctl> connect wifi_d83addd2ae3c_6465736b534145_managed_psk
Agent RequestInput wifi_d83addd2ae3c_6465736b534145_managed_psk
Passphrase = [ Type=psk, Requirement=mandatory ]
Passphrase? *******
connmanctl> services
c deskSAE wifi_d83addd2ae3c_6465736b534145_managed_psk
Connected wifi_d83addd2ae3c_6465736b534145_managed_psk
connmanctl> services
*AR deskSAE wifi_d83addd2ae3c_6465736b534145_managed_psk
but no DHCP address:
# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0
if I initiate the connection using iwctl, it works, connects, gets a
DHCP and I can ping the AP. The problem is something between connman
and iwd, I think.
I have tried this on the Pi3 with a v8 kernel and a pi5 using a 2712
kernel. Both have the latest firmware from infineon.
These are the versions of iwd and connman (I think they are up to date):
iwd-git/now 3.3.r0.g4b535cee-1 arm64 [installed,local]
connman-git/now 1.43.r4.g263e151f-1 arm64 [installed,local]
I thought I saw this behavior on the Pi3b+, but was unable to check it
as in depth as I have here on the Pi5.
Do you need a log or journal to debug what is going on?
