I recently did suspend/resume and hibernate testing with BCM43224 (so brcmsmac and bcma), but my system was on AC. I will execute them again on battery. I want to make sure it is not a BCM4331 specific issue. > I've checked the values of MACCTL and the DMA TXCTL registers, since > these are the ones used by brcmsmac to mute tx, but those look okay.

When going to S3 the driver is told by mac80211 .stop callback to abort driver operation so I do not expect b43 has a problem. Instead we probably have to look at the host PCI code in bcma, but before going there let me execute my tests. Can you tell me on what kernel version you see this issue. I would also like to have a look at your kernel log. > Thanks, > Seth > -- 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
