Subject: wicd pm script prevents wireless wake on lan (WoWLAN) from working
Date: Mon, 22 May 2017 10:41:56 -0600
Package: wicd
Version: 1.7.4+tb2-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The pm-utils script provided with wicd prevents wireless wake on lan from working:
- /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/55wicd runs /usr/share/wicd/daemon/suspend.py
- /usr/share/wicd/daemon/suspend.py invokes the Disconnect and SetSuspend methods
in /usr/share/wicd/daemon/wicd-daemon.py
- The SetSuspend method in /usr/share/wicd/daemon/wicd-daemon.py also
invokes the Disconnect method in /usr/share/wicd/daemon/wicd-daemon.py
- The Disconnect method in /usr/share/wicd/daemon/wicd-daemon.py invokes
the Wireless.Disconnect() method in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/wicd/networking.py
- The Wireless.Disconnect() method in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/wicd/networking.py
takes down the wireless interface, which disassociates it from the
access point, making wireless wake on lan impossible.
Over-riding or blacklisting 55wicd fixes the problem, but it would probably
be better to change one of the python methods involved to check the state of
wireless wake on lan (as set by sudo iw phy0 wowlan enable ...) before
taking the interface down completely.
