It also depends on the severity of the issue and to some extent the complexity of the fix.

I've verified the PHY sequences both against what the UEFI firmware (and hence Windows) uses as well as against the internal Qualcomm documentation (with the help of Bjorn A). And Qualcomm did say that such errors are also seen under Windows on these platforms. But the fact that the symptoms differ between the CRD and X13s, which use the same Atheros Wi-Fi controller (and the same PHY initialisation) also suggests that this may to some extent be due to some property of the machine. Notably, on the X13s there are lot of errors when pushing data (e.g. using iperf3), whereas on the CRD the are no errors when running such tests. When leaving the CRD on for long periods of time with the Wi-Fi disconnected, I do however see occasional correctable errors. > Since this is not the hot target now (for Qcom), it takes time to > check things. I think that based on the available data it's reasonable to go ahead and merge these patches. In the event that this turns out to be a configuration issue, we can just drop the 'aspm-no-l0s' properties again. Johan
