Spam from wpa_supplicant in the systemd journal
For some time, my systemd journal is spammed by many messages like these: https://pastebin.com/6XJWG2nq
I want to clarify that my wifi connection works. I just want to understand the meaning of these messages and especially how to prevent wpa_supplicant from filling my logs unnecessarily.
wpa_supplicant 2:2.6-2
Linux leeo-arch-msi 4.20.6-zen1-1-zen #1 ZEN SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 31 08:24:33 UTC 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Fluctuation in the signal strength.
Could be you moving around, somebody carriying metal sheets between you and the AP, power saving mechanisms on either side, doors, or something an interface controlling service (Networkmanager et al) does.
You can alter the loglevel using "-q" but the underlying issue oc. won't go away.
