But I failed to connect to AP, it seems that the scan_result is empty. And when I failed to connect to the AP, I found that the IMR is not enabled. I guess the check bypass the interrupt enable function. And I also found that *without MSI*, the driver is able to connect to the AP. Could you please verify this patch again with MSI interrupt enabled and send a v4? You can find my MSI patch on https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11081539/ > + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&rtwpci->irq_lock, flags); > > return IRQ_HANDLED; > } > @@ -1152,8 +1171,10 @@ static int rtw_pci_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev, > goto err_destroy_pci; > } > > - ret = request_irq(pdev->irq, &rtw_pci_interrupt_handler, > - IRQF_SHARED, KBUILD_MODNAME, rtwdev); > + ret = devm_request_threaded_irq(rtwdev->dev, pdev->irq, > + rtw_pci_interrupt_handler, > + rtw_pci_interrupt_threadfn, > + IRQF_SHARED, KBUILD_MODNAME, rtwdev); > if (ret) { > ieee80211_unregister_hw(hw); > goto err_destroy_pci; > @@ -1192,7 +1213,7 @@ static void rtw_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev) > rtw_pci_disable_interrupt(rtwdev, rtwpci); > rtw_pci_destroy(rtwdev, pdev); > rtw_pci_declaim(rtwdev, pdev); > - free_irq(rtwpci->pdev->irq, rtwdev); > + devm_free_irq(rtwdev->dev, rtwpci->pdev->irq, rtwdev); > rtw_core_deinit(rtwdev); > ieee80211_free_hw(hw); > } > -- NACK Need to verify it with MSI https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11081539/ And hope v4 could fix it.
