920 privileged operations into a separate process (wpa_priv) while leaving
930 linked into a separate daemon program, wpa_priv. The unprivileged
932 wrappers that communicate with the privileged wpa_priv process to
933 perform the needed operations. wpa_priv can control what privileged

960 wpa_priv does not use the network interface before wpa_supplicant is
962 available at the time wpa_priv is started. As an alternative, wpa_priv
964 wpa_priv can control multiple interface with one process, but it is
965 also possible to run multiple wpa_priv processes at the same time, if
969 wpa_priv does not include all the capabilities of the wpa_supplicant
971 for recent addition. Consequently, use of wpa_priv does come with the
974 without having to handle the complexity of separate wpa_priv. While that
