Many times the device totally lost connectivity, WIFI is completely down, no ip was assigned after device wakeup.

From system log I can see BPF socket for DHCP was closed and detached right after attached to en0 in DHCP INIT phase, as result even the DHCP server sent back OFFER(I see server sent OFFER back from packet capture), but there is no persistent BPF socket since it is closed reception during the entire INIT phase.

It is definitely an OS issue, is it a known issue? Please help understand Why BPF socket was close right after sending DISCOVER?

Default     0x0                  0      0    kernel: bpf26 attached to en0 by configd:331

System log and packet capture attach, please check.

Is any of your code involved here?
