No, the driver itself is not defined exactly, the wpa_supplicant command 
line is as follows:

wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -B -c scanning.conf

Since I'm using ath9k, I assume nl80211 driver is being used.

Earlier I used madwifi with -Dmadwifi option, and it also reported the 
signal levels the way nl80211/ath9k does. And I made a few attempts with 
-Dwext also, but unfortunately I cannot already remember the signal 
levels reported...
