I'm running 12.10 on a mostly headless MK808 stick - but I believe this
bug will exist on later versions as well as the code in question hasn't
changed. Originally I had my /etc/network/interfaces configured to use
wpa_supplicant in roaming mode, and this worked correctly. Then I needed
to add an option to boot into hotspot mode, which I implemented using a
flag file and a custom mapping script. After doing this, however, my
roaming interfaces were not configured. Here is /etc/network/interfaces:
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
mapping eth0
script /usr/local/bin/hotspot-req.sh
map true host
map false wpa
iface host inet static
pre-up /sbin/iwconfig eth0 power off
pre-up /sbin/iwconfig eth0 mode Master || true
pre-up /sbin/iwconfig eth0 essid KITCHEN1
address 192.168.150.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
iface wpa inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
wpa-debug-level 3
pre-up /sbin/iwconfig eth0 power off
iface kitchen inet dhcp
pre-up /sbin/iwconfig eth0 power off
iface home inet dhcp
pre-up /sbin/iwconfig eth0 power off
The problem seems to be that ifup is not invoked with --force, although
it apparently needs to be. The test is performed in this line of
/etc/wpa_supplicant/functions.sh:
if [ -n "$IFSTATE_FILE" ] && grep -q
"^$WPA_IFACE=$WPA_IFACE" "$IFSTATE_FILE"; then
Changing it to:
if [ -n "$IFSTATE_FILE" ] && grep -q "^$WPA_IFACE="
"$IFSTATE_FILE" && ! grep -q "^$WPA_IFACE=$WPA_LOGICAL_IFACE";
then
- fixes my problem but I would like some thoughts on whether this is
- correct. The idea is if that physical interface is already configured,
- but not using the current logical interface name, then it needs to be
- forcibly reconfigured...
