Oh and I don't care about "it works in dscape stack" sort of crap I regulary get. I want something that works with upstream kernels. That isn't that much to ask... or is it ?
wpa_supplicant triggers races in softmac relatively easily, which are hard to fix properly. At least for me, motivation to work on this stuff is low given the potentially impending merge of devicescape, and every time I do spend some time investigating I just get even more frustrated at how difficult WE is to implement *properly* for "non-hardmac" drivers. We really have a need for a configuration system designed around 802.11.
I agree, the stuff in mainline should be fixed, but at least personally I am finding it harder and harder to justify working on softmac.
