[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] wpa_supplicant: Add Write Log to File Support

[Bima Hutama]

  -Change:
	Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_FILE=y

  -Description:
	Add support for writing debug log to a file (/tmp/wpa_supplicant-log-#.txt).
	By invoking "-f <directory path>" in wpa_supplicant we can enable write-debug-to-file
	without running wpa_supplicant on foreground. It makes debugging easier than running
	wpa_supplicant in foreground and add "&" at the end of code which invokes wpa_supplicant
	and distorting the wpa_supplicant exit status $?.
