Hi at all, I have an QCA988X based card in my laptop and have some "issues" with it, that I was not experiencing with my previous ath9k based card. The main issue is, that after suspend to RAM the card seems to be "hung up" and only reloading ath10k_core and ath10k_pci helps to fix the problem. dmesg shows the following info after resuming: > > ACPI: Low-level resume complete > ACPI : EC: EC started > PM: Restoring platform NVS memory > Enabling non-boot CPUs ... > x86: Booting SMP configuration: > smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x1 > numa_add_cpu cpu 1 node 0: mask now 0-1 > cache: parent cpu1 should not be sleeping > CPU1 is up > smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 2 APIC 0x4 > numa_add_cpu cpu 2 node 0: mask now 0-2 > cache: parent cpu2 should not be sleeping > CPU2 is up > smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 3 APIC 0x5 > numa_add_cpu cpu 3 node 0: mask now 0-3 > cache: parent cpu3 should not be sleeping > CPU3 is up > ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3 > ehci-pci 0000:00:1d.0: System wakeup disabled by ACPI > PM: noirq resume of devices complete after 22.000 msecs > PM: early resume of devices complete after 2.082 msecs > tg3 0000:03:00.0: System wakeup disabled by ACPI > sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Starting disk > rtc_cmos 00:01: System wakeup disabled by ACPI > usb 2-1.6: reset high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci > ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) > ata1.00: supports DRM functions and may not be fully accessible > ata1.00: disabling queued TRIM support > ata1.00: supports DRM functions and may not be fully accessible > ata1.00: disabling queued TRIM support > ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 > psmouse serio4: synaptics: queried max coordinates: x [..5714], y [..5172] > usb 1-1.5: reset full-speed USB device number 10 using ehci-pci > usb 1-1.5: device firmware changed > usb 1-1.4: reset full-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci > usb 1-1.2: reset high-speed USB device number 3 using ehci-pci > PM: resume of devices complete after 4693.622 msecs > PM: Finishing wakeup. > Restarting tasks ... done. > video LNXVIDEO:00: Restoring backlight state > usb 1-1.5: USB disconnect, device number 10 > usb 1-1.5: new full-speed USB device number 11 using ehci-pci > usb 1-1.5: New USB device found, idVendor=0cf3, idProduct=3004 > usb 1-1.5: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0 > IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready > IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready > IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp1s0: link is not ready > IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp1s0: link is not ready > IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp1s0: link is not ready > usb 1-1.5: USB disconnect, device number 11 > usb 1-1.5: new full-speed USB device number 12 using ehci-pci > usb 1-1.5: New USB device found, idVendor=0cf3, idProduct=3004 > usb 1-1.5: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0 > wlp1s0: authenticate with 14:cc:20:ec:xx:xx > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to synchronize setup for vdev 0 restart 0: -110 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to start vdev 0 addr 1c:3e:84:d3:xx:xx on freq 5180: -110 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to synchronize setup for vdev 0 restart 0: -110 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to start vdev 0 addr 1c:3e:84:d3:xx:xx on freq 5180: -110 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to start WMI vdev 0: -11 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to start vdev 0 addr 1c:3e:84:d3:xx:xx on freq 5180: -11 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to start WMI vdev 0: -11 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to start vdev 0 addr 1c:3e:84:d3:xx:xx on freq 5180: -11 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to delete WMI vdev 0: -11 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: could not suspend target (-11) > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: device has crashed during init > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: device has crashed during init > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to wait for target init: -70 > [drm:ironlake_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO underrun > [drm:ironlake_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* PCH transcoder A FIFO underrun at this point I reload the kernel modules > > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: pci irq msi oper_irq_mode 2 irq_mode 0 reset_mode 0 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:01:00.0.bin failed with error -2 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/cal-pci-0000:01:00.0.bin failed with error -2 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: qca988x hw2.0 target 0x4100016c chip_id 0x043022ff sub 1a56:1420 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: kconfig debug 0 debugfs 0 tracing 0 dfs 0 testmode 0 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: firmware ver 10.2.4.70.54 api 5 features no-p2p,raw-mode,mfp crc32 9d340dd9 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0/board-2.bin failed with error -2 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: board_file api 1 bmi_id N/A crc32 bebc7c08 > ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: htt-ver 2.1 wmi-op 5 htt-op 2 cal otp max-sta 128 raw 0 hwcrypto 1 this happens on Linux hostnamehere 4.8.0-040800rc5-generic #201609041832 SMP Sun Sep 4 22:34:01 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux And the issues where a lot worse with Kernel 4.4. Fell free to request more detailed debug info as needed. I wish all a nice rest of the weekend Steffen Arntz
