Lennert, I am a user of your mwl8k driver through the OpenWRT distribution. When working with certain WiFi devices I get errors in the kernel logs and network connectivity errors on the wireless device. The dmesg logs look like this: [539374.394607] ieee80211 phy1: Added a new stream for (BSSID MAC) 0 [539374.394650] ieee80211 phy1: Started stream for (BSSID MAC) 0 [539374.394732] ieee80211 phy1: tx rings drained [539374.401372] ieee80211 phy1: Created a BA stream for (BSSID MAC) : tid 0 `iw event -t' logs (it looks like OpenWRT is patching the heck out of this tool): 1465008930.594531: wlan1 (phy #1): unknown event 60 1465008930.652119: wlan1 (phy #1): unknown event 60 1465008930.653494: wlan1 (phy #1): unknown event 60 1465008930.655582: wlan1: new station (BSSID MAC) There are a number of other users who are also experiencing the same issue on the OpenWRT bug tracker: https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/21284 As I noted in the bug the driver works with some of my wireless devices and not others which suggests that something subtle is up with some driver in this picture. I don't have a whole lot of experience with kernel development (pretty much none actually) and I know absolutely nothing about how these WiFi devices work. However I am willing to work with you or anyone else on the linux-wireless list (which I have CCd) to help troubleshoot this issue. I am using OpenWRT on this router and I can get a build environment set up for debug kernel builds with their toolchain. I'm running a pretty recent kernel (4.4.7) but git log suggests this driver hasn't been touched in a while. -- David Gilman :DG< http://gilslotd.com -- 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
