That looks like the only sensible solution. I did some commit digging, and it seems this log message was introduced out of the blue with no explanation during code refactoring. >> This is the first time I notice this issue, so I don't think it's very >> reproducible. > > Too bad, I would've been interested in a command trace when this > happens, but it would have to be a fairly long-running trace before the > error message happens. > > Were you in some special place when this happened? No it was at home, and it's been a few months since the access points there were changed in any way (hardware, firmware, config). > It has to be an 11n > AP that is greenfield capable, with no 11a/b/g stations connected to it. That sounds likely at the time this happened. The access points are two Netgear WNDR4500 routers if that matters. I.e. Linux 2.6.22 with Broadcoms proprietary closed source drivers. > Maybe some 11g client disconnected from the AP and then the messages > started showing up? Could very well be. The 11g client would probably be my phone then. It tends to do connects/disconnects on its own, so it sounds likely that it could just have disconnected when the log messages started appearing. > [PATCH] iwlwifi: turn down "GF was set with SGI:SISO" message I don't think I can test this in any other way than building it, as I am unable to trigger the problem again. It went away on the first disconnect/reconnect (while suspending the laptop) and I have not seen the messages again. But the solution look sane to me FWIW.
