I have a powerpc-based platform running AR9280 in AP mode. My STA is an Intel 5300 (but I have been able to reproduce it also with an STA using AR5008). After connecting I run iperf in client mode on the STA thus sending data to the STA. After a short while the AP stops receiving any data (including TCP-acks) and the transfer stalls. I've verified that frames that look ok in the air can still be corrupt in ath9k. In particular, the status field is trashed so that frames are incorrectly forwarded to mac80211 marked as decrypted which can trigger countermeasures or update CCMP PN incorrectly (thereby dropping later, correct frames). Discarding frames which appear to have trashed status makes 802.11n work. > Are you testing with aggregated traffic or non-aggregate legacy > traffic ? Aggregated. > Are you seeing only when CCMP is enabled or in WEP/TKIP also ? Only with 802.11n (CCMP). Everything works perfectly with 802.11g and WEP/TKIP/CCMP and I never see any corrupt frame status. > Can you please set register 0x8120 bit 28 to 1 and test this again to > see that helps ? I'll try that.
