Currently ath9k_htc will reboot firmware only if interface was ever started. Which lead to the problem in case where interface was never started but module need to be reloaded. This patch will partially fix bug "ath9k_htc: Target is unresponsive" https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/issues/1 Reproduction case: - plug adapter - make sure nothing will touch it. Stop Networkmanager or blacklist mac address of this adapter. - rmmod ath9k_htc; sleep 1; modprobe ath9k_htc Signed-off-by: Oleksij Rempel <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/hif_usb.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/hif_usb.c b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/hif_usb.c index 2469db5..5205a36 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/hif_usb.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/hif_usb.c @@ -1295,7 +1295,9 @@ static void ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect(struct usb_interface *interface) usb_set_intfdata(interface, NULL); - if (!unplugged && (hif_dev->flags & HIF_USB_START)) + /* If firmware was loaded we should drop it + * go back to first stage bootloader. */ + if (!unplugged && (hif_dev->flags & HIF_USB_READY)) ath9k_hif_usb_reboot(udev); kfree(hif_dev); -- 1.8.1.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
