curious if this is a known problem.


Seems very reproducible on my system.

The warning means you're modifying an interface the driver doesn't (yet)
know about.

It's odd that you should be running into this on config_beacon() though
since that can only execute when the interface is up ... can you print
out the interface name in the warning?

This is still reproducible in 3.3.0-rc6+ from yesterday.


I create the VAP with this command:

./local/sbin/iw phy wiphy0 interface add vap0 type __ap


vap0:  Failed check-sdata-in-driver check, flags: 0x0
