Re: [PATCH v3] mac80211: fix regression in sta connection monitor

Hi Felix!

Unfortunately it disconnected again after 21 hours and 44 minutes of uptime, and remained offline for 5 minutes again.
I will add some code to ieee80211_sta_work() to trace more info when a disconnect occurs.
Do you have any ideas? Why does it remain offline for exactly 5 minutes every time? Do we need to reset probe_send_count in rx.c? Do we have to send probe requests or nullfunc while there is active communication, e.g. acknowledged ICMP traffic?

This is the most common event in the trace, it occurs every 30 seconds, we called ieee80211_sta_tx_notify(ack: true), and ieee80211_is_any_nullfunc() returned true, so probe_send_count is reset:
--- ack  probe_send_count: 1  vif.type 2:2

These events are rare, I could not find any pattern. probe_send_count is reset inside status.c
reset connection monitor  probe_send_count: 1  nullfunc: 0

These events are rare and appear randomly. The first indicates that we called ieee80211_sta_tx_notify(ack: false), and ieee80211_is_any_nullfunc() returned true, so probe_send_count is not reset, while the second always appears 10ms later with ack = true, and ieee80211_is_any_nullfunc() returned true, so probe_send_count is reset.
probe_send_count: 1  vif.type 2:2
--- ack  probe_send_count: 2  vif.type 2:2

Here are some interesting parts from the trace:
