My first discovery is that if PIO mode is to be used, it is not sufficient to load the module with the "pio=1" option, but that both "qos=0" and "nohwcrypt=1" options must also be used, at least for WPA/WPA2 networks.
That is known. I posted it once or twice. It is b43 making bad assumptions about mac80211 behavior. And mac80211 behavior changed... b43 does modify the number of queues in the data structure after it registered things to mac80211. That used to work properly in the past. But it breaks now. The init does have to be re-ordered and implementation of async firmware loading is required to fix that.
No other combination works. In addition, the automatic failover to PIO mode does not work unless those two options were used when the module was loaded. Thus both of the following work:
It only works by accident anyway. But I already said that several times. -- Greetings Michael. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
