Hi,
We (Fedora) have been getting bugreports that brcmfmac wifi drops
out and needs a rmmod + modprobe
to restore functionality starting with kernel 4.19:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1658178
Will look into this. Maybe it is similar to what Russell King reported.
Probably not. The bug report above is with PCIe device. The dmesg
attached to the bug report shows user is doing system suspend/resume
over and over until the following occurs:
[28151.874963] brcmfmac: brcmf_psm_watchdog_notify: PSM's watchdog has
fired!
[29354.351337] brcmfmac: brcmf_psm_watchdog_notify: PSM's watchdog has
fired!
PSM is the hardware block which processes the 802.11 packets received
from firmware and passes them to the phy layer. When this watchdog barks
the firmware will end up in a trap. We do collect a devcoredump upon the
watchdog, but unfortunately that will not tell much about the failure in
the hardware block. On monday I will try to come up with a patch to
obtain more information from the device regarding this watchdog.
Arend, did you manage to look any further into this? I've also noticed
problems with brcmfmac dropping out since 4.19, though haven't seen any
notices about PSM: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201853.
