Enabling a static wpa_supplicant-2.9 without debug and without any sub-options generates a 2MB+ binary.? From various sources, I was expecting something closer to 600KB. Any ideas?
The 802.11 and Wi-Fi standard aren't getting any lighter... Since wpa_supplicant 2.8, most features started being enabled by default because Linux distribution were tired to manually enable support for them. Even my shared-libs wpa_supplicant binary is over 2M with a few options now... but i can debloat it to 800K by toggling a few options. I already have many local modifications to enable/disable things, maybe I should just improve/clean them and send it as a patch. Testing the various configurations will take time, however.
