ath10k_sdio: Long time for loading firmware and RCU errors

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am using the QCA9377 chip on an imx6dl-pico-pi board running kernel
5.10.37 and I noticed that the firmware takes a long time to load
(more than 3 minutes after boot):

[  192.544227] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: qca9377 hw1.1 sdio target

And then when I try to use it the following RCU messages are seen:

# wpa_supplicant  -iwlan0 -c /etc/wpa.conf &
# Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant

Despite the two problems reported above the Wifi connection works:

64 bytes from a.b.c.d seq=3 ttl=113 time=30.491 ms

Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing these two issues? I have
also tested 5.12.4 with the same results. Using the QCA9377 firmware
from the latest linux-firmware tree.

Thanks,

Fabio Estevam
