Hello,

On Fedora 40, wpa_supplicant-2.11-3.fc40.x86_64 I get a ton of SPAM from
this daemon:

wlp1s0: CTRL-EVENT-SIGNAL-CHANGE above=1 signal=-63 noise=9999 txrate=576400

journalctl | grep CTRL-EVENT-SIGNAL-CHANGE | wc -l
24500

That's just for a few days.

ps ax | grep wpa
12345 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -c
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -u -s

Maybe guys there's actually _no_ need to log this message at all?

I'm confused the daemon has seemingly zero settings for logging.

Best regards,
Artem
