Hi,


i'm trying to get connman  managing virtual wifi device created using 
mac80211_hwsim kernel module.

In this configuration, a scan wifi from connmanctl always return a "no carrier" 
error message.


Using gdb, i found that the connman_device is seen as unpowered. Hence, the 
test in device.c:610 fails and connmand return -ENOLINK  (err code -67).


This does not seem logical to me. Is this a bug ?

This usually occurs when ConnMan cannot forward such request toward
wpa_supplicant. Therefore, I would suggest you to ensure
wpa_supplicant has control over this new interface. For instance,
check you can request for scanning from wpa_cli. If once done you
still get the same error, you should check wpa_supplicant has been
compiled and executed with the required options, see section
"wpa_supplicant configuration" in documentation [1].

Hi, 

scanning with wpa_cli is ok. Also, i recompiled wpa_supplicant following the 
advice from connman config recommendation (at least CONFIG_BGSCAN was missing)
Now i still have a problem :  
"connmanctl> scan wifi 
Error /net/connman/technology/wifi: Not supported"

>From gdb, it still is triggered from device.c:device_scan, but because the 
>device's driver is null. 

i attached here the log from connmand -n -d output.
