Hi all,
here is the firmware dump... It looks more like a binary blob to me, but
I guess there are some tools to inspect it:
https://cloud.xogium.me/s/wDf9bOWZU3cngw8/download
(dirrect link). As for the dmesg output, the first logs I posted were
exactly this, all kernel messages filtered from journald, and nothing
serious seems to have changed. I will redo it as soon as I have a chance
and post it. I cannot use dmesg because there are so much info generated
the buffer is incomplete, hence the use of journalctl -b -k. Doesn't
really help that the poor board is having a load average of 5 while
doing this, but I will try to capture a new debug log.
Hope this helps

Hi,
just a short message to mention I booted the 4.14 kernel and grabbed what
was in /sys/class/devcoredump/devcd1/data into a file. I'm not sure if it
could be useful, but did it anyways... Let me know if it's useful and I'll post
the binary somewhere.
Thanks
You can share that. Additionally, can you share the dmesg logs with extensive log level.
You can use below command to set the same:
echo 0xffffffff > /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/debug_mask

Hi again,
I tried the few patch that made it to this list without any real
success... I suppose the issue isn't that easy to reproduce on your
side so... Shall I try a git bisect, building only that module and see
if I can narrow it down a bit ? I'm no expert with git or git bisect
for that matter, but I'm guessing building the module will be less
time consuming than building the entire kernel... Unless you want me
to do something else to help in debugging. I want to help as much as I
can to solve this, heh, even despite me annoying my father because his
wifi access point goes poof. :) Thanks,
