Sorry I hadn't noticed this yesterday (so I could have repported it
then), but after updating the "head" slice of my laptopp from:

FreeBSD g1-51.catwhisker.org 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #340 main-n2=
49128-a0c64a443e4c: Fri Sep  3 04:06:12 PDT 2021     root@g1-55.catwhisker.=
org:/common/S4/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/CANARY  amd64 1400032 1400032

to:

FreeBSD g1-51.catwhisker.org 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #341 main-n2=
49146-cb5c07649aa0: Sat Sep  4 04:28:27 PDT 2021     root@g1-51.catwhisker.=
org:/common/S4/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/CANARY  amd64 1400032 1400032

I find that while the em0 NIC still works, wlan0 (iwn(4) HW) does not:
the WLAN LED doesn't light up.

After the update from:

FreeBSD localhost 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #341 main-n249146-cb5c0=
7649aa0: Sat Sep  4 04:28:27 PDT 2021     root@g1-51.catwhisker.org:/common=
/S4/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/CANARY  amd64 1400032 1400032

to:

FreeBSD g1-51.catwhisker.org 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #342 main-n2=
49159-bb61ccd530b7: Sun Sep  5 04:44:48 PDT 2021     root@localhost:/common=
/S4/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/CANARY  amd64 1400032 1400032

(from this morning), that behavior remains the same.  The page
https://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/history/ has links to
various bits, some of which may be relevant; dmesg.boot from a
verbose boot of that laptop from this morning (after the update to
main-n249159-bb61ccd530b7) (for example) is at
https://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/history/laptop.14_dmesg.txt, and
shows:

I note that the subject update also included updates to
contrib/wpa/wpa_supplicant, as well as some files in sys/net80211,
but I have not started chasing that down.

I note that exactly the same hardware works OK in stable/12 and stable/13.

Peace,
david
