Hello,
we are having a CPU stall issue with ath9k driver on pci-aardvark
(Marvell Armada 3720 (arm64)).
The ath9k driver loads correctly and the interface connects and for
some time it works correctly, but then CPU stalls and kernel dumps
self-detected stall on CPU.
I don't know if this is issue with aardvark or whole arm64 (someone had
a similar problem, see
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg157038.html ), but
ath10k doesn't have this problem.
I am attaching the rcu_sched stall detection backtrace (although I
don't know if contains needed information).
Can you please point me how to debug/solve this issue?
Thank you.
