[SOLVED] New "reason 16" disconnects on linux 5.9.1

Since updating to linux 5.9.1 I get regular Wi-Fi disconnects. I am using iwd and systemd-networkd.

The update from 5.8.14 ->5.9.1

You can see that

Received Deauthentication event, reason: 16, from_ap: true

is suddenly very common.

According to 802-11, Reason Code 16 represents "Group key handshake timeout". Looking at my logs, the NEW_INTERFACE warning from iwd is consistent, and first appears in my first boot of kernel 5.8.1 (w/ iwd 1.8) and never with 5.7.x and below, so I'm not sure it's relevant. It never has any trouble reconnecting, but the disconnects are constant. I get 2 d/c per hour at a regular cadence, every boot since upgrading to 5.9.1. My network has not otherwise changed, I haven't observed these disconnects on other devices, and searching my journal shows I've only gotten a "reason 16" disconnect once before in my recorded journal logs sometime last July. I use this laptop every day.

Is anyone else having this issue with 5.9.1?

Re: [SOLVED] New "reason 16" disconnects on linux 5.9.1

Is it happening while connected to one or more then one routers?

Edit to clarify: Have you been able to test this on more then one router?

And, just to get it out of the way, if it's only one router, have you rebooted the router and tested?

Re: [SOLVED] New "reason 16" disconnects on linux 5.9.1

Only one router. The uptime on my router is a few weeks, so I'll try rebooting it.

EDIT: Still happens

Re: [SOLVED] New "reason 16" disconnects on linux 5.9.1

I've not seen anything that relates to "reason: 16" beyond what you noted.

But I did find something that would seem to be related.

The short version is add this to /etc/iwd/main.conf

[General]
 ControlPortOverNL80211=False

and restart the IWD service.

The longer version is here..

Re: [SOLVED] New "reason 16" disconnects on linux 5.9.1

Excellent find! I've run this configuration for over an hour now and no disconnects. Solved!

Hopefully the kernel patch will be applied soon as well!

The kernel patch was applied in 5.9.4.arch1!
