Hi, I`m working wireless interface on imx8evk.

I know there is a Atheros on the imx8evk to use wifi, but I want to replace a Atheros with a Realtek.

Currently, I install driver about rtl8192cu and check wlan0.

But, I had a problem when running wpa_supplicant.

Please refer to below the picture.

Sending signal 9 to service 'wpa_supplicant' is execute repeatedly.

No problem when I was running the command "iw wlan0 scan"

Worked with reference to Realtek Wi-Fi SDK for Android O 8.x ver. 1.0.1 and Android™ User's Guide, Rev. O8.1.0_1.3.0_8M, 04/2018.

How to solve this problem.

Thank you!!!

Hi woo

for "wpa_supplicant killed by signal 9" error one can look at

memory - what does "exited abnormally with signal 9: Killed: 9" mean - Stack Overflow 
Seems this is severe error caused by wrong driver structure, for example due to

incompatibilty of kernel versions.

Best regards
igor
