I am sorry that you are having problems with your system, but your log was
essentially useless. I saw one disconnect due to reason 4 (disassociation due to
inactivity).
There were many changes in the rtl8192cu driver for kernel 3.11, and you need to
run it, or a backports version of the wireless code. Your 3.8.0 kernel is too old.
I have been running rtl8192cu for the past 24 hours without a permanent
disconnect. Under NetworkManager, I see some reason 7 deauthentications, but
running under ifup, there have been no disassociations or deauthentications in
over 6 hours.
I am using openSUSE KDE. There may be a problem with the Ubuntu user code as it
seems to operate differently.

Dan,
The log of wpa_supplicant associated with the reason 7 disconnects are as follows:

Running wpa_supplicant with debugging on might shed some light on these;
basically:
mv /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant /
killall -TERM wpa_supplicant
/wpa_supplicant -dddtu <piped to your favorite log file>
and NM should automatically reconnect, and then we can figure out what's
going on in the supplicant.

So reason 7 is "Incorrect frame type or subtype received from
unassociated station" which seems like the AP thinks we got
disconnected, and would seem to be a driver/mac80211 issue still, right?

And got reconnected after a bit more than one second. So at least it
recovers quickly, but the question is more about why the reason 7
happened, and what frames caused it, I think.

Periodic scanning maybe and some mis-management of nullfunc frames in
the driver when switching channels for a scan? That used to be the most
common cause of issues like this, where the device would go scan a
channel but forget the nullfunc, so while it was off-channel the AP
wouldn't hear anything from it and disassociate it.

Yes. These only happen with rtl8192ce and rtl8192cu. They are a bit more common
when running NetworkManager than with ifup. In my current run, they have been at
intervals of 1000 to 30,000 seconds apart. Capturing them with wireshark may not
be practical.

I agree. The sequence seems to start with an MLME Event 39:
.908249: nl80211: MLME event 39
.908252: nl80211: MLME event frame - hexdump(len=26): c0 00 3a 01 1c 65 9d 5a c3
9d 20 e5 2a 01 f7 ea 20 e5 2a 01 f7 ea a0 f6 07 00
.908269: wlan3: Event DEAUTH (12) received
.908273: wlan3: Deauthentication notification
All that happens within 25 usec, but I have no clue what triggers that. In
addition, I have been unable to find any documentation on MLME events. Any
suggestions regarding a source would be appreciated.
Thanks,
