Pls try add interface with type __ap or directly use hostapd up the ap

This is what I am doing.
But I see your interfaces all be added with managed， right?
f019f4dff2e4 ("wifi: ath11k: support 2 station interfaces") update about
interface combination limits.
My patch by means of a parameter allows to come back to the original
interface combination (before f019f4dff2e4 and not the current one that
you comment), so as I commented, this is the interface combination that
I am finally using to setup the two APs:
# iw list | grep -A4 "valid interface combinations:"
valid interface combinations:
* #{ managed } <= 1, #{ AP, P2P-client, P2P-GO } <= 16, #{ P2P-device } <= 1,
total <= 16, #channels <= 1, STA/AP BI must match, radar detect widths: { 20 MHz (no HT), 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz }
HT Capability overrides:
And I repeat that with that, my setup is working (no error log).
If chip support DBS, station interfaces max is 2 that why you can't up
the 3rd managed type interface. You better add interface with ap type.
Ok, but as I commented this is what I am doing.
Just to clarify, only with your proposed interface combination I am getting
problems with a 3rd managed type interface.
2.4GHz works fine also.
That is great.
Ok, at this point, as I need my setup, in order to allow me to debug and
get the differences, could you share how you are configuring the two APs to
test and debug here?
sure.
apply f019f4dff2e4 ("wifi: ath11k: support 2 station interfaces")

Test steps:
1. add interface
#iw dev wlan0 interface add wlan1 type __ap
#iw dev wlan0 interface add wlan2 type __ap
2.run hostapd
#hostapd hostapd1.conf &
#hostapd hostapd2.conf &
refer hostapd.conf:
