nixpkgs-suyu/pkgs/tools/networking/dhcp/flush-if.patch
Eelco Dolstra 0a7708ff56 * dhcp: don't bring down an interface to delete old addresses / route
/ ARP cache information, but just flush those using the ip command.
  Bringing down wireless interfaces causes wpa_supplicant to fail and
  never recover ("wpa_supplicant: l2_packet_receive - recvfrom:
  Network is down").  This made associating with a wireless network
  rather unreliable and timing-dependant.  It seems to work a lot
  better now.
