My system's logs are being swamped by these messages:

wpa_supplicant[390]: RRM: Ignoring radio measurement request: Not RRM network

I have searched extensively; I've even found the sources for wpa_supplicant here: git clone git://w1.fi/hostap.git
But I'm not fluent in C and have no clue how to proceed. Can anybody suggest how I can suppress or avoid these messages or switch off this functionality?

EDIT: This is on Raspbian (Debian flavor for Raspberry Pi) Buster, which has wpa_supplicant v2.8-devel. It is communicating with a Fritz!Box AP; I mention this because I'm getting the feeling that could be relevant.

EDIT(2): as requested:

$ ps -f -p $(pgrep wpa_supplicant)

  • you didn't say anything about your OS system and Versions? Also can you find out how wpa_supplication is being started and it's parameter. It maybe able to reduce the logging level. Or it might be a bug that needs to be reported depending on your operating system. Jul 15, 2020 at 12:24
  • Could you edit the question and add the output of: ps -f -p $(pgrep wpa_supplicant) Jul 16, 2020 at 15:08

You can decrease the verbosity of wpa_supplicant by using -q or even -qq.
