probe script

Description of problem:
I have a script to probe txpower settings (since I know of no other way to determine these settings).

After I run the script, I can no longer set the txpower of a wireless interface, or at least the iwconfig output doesn't show it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
wireless-tools-29-12.1.fc22.x86_64
kernel-4.0.4-303.fc22.x86_64

(may be a kernel bug, I have the same on Debian Wheezy)

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. assume wlan0 is wireless interface
1. run the script: rm -f log;./wireless-probe -f log setting; cat log
2. iwconfig wlan0 txpower 0
3. iwconfig wlan0 ==> show original setting, NOT 0
