(I'm sorry, mailing list rejected my previous letter, I'm resending) Hello, I've decided to refactor and improve rtl8187se kernel driver from staging directory, because it is buggy and lacks some features. It causes full system freeze after resume from suspend, there are some typos in interrupt handler that affect logic, it causes OOPS when rmmoding, it has not rfkill support, it uses private ieee80211 stack etc. I'm writing to you, because your address is mentioned in drivers/staging/rtl8187se/TODO file. Also I'm CCing to linux-wireless mailing list in hope that there are people that could also help me. You can clone git repository with modified driver source code here: git@xxxxxxxxxxxxx:gentoo_root/ rtl8187se-staging.git. At first, I've removed some non-vital features and dead code from original driver in order to simplify code. Then I've fixed some bugs and created more clear structure of code. For now, I did not fully follow Linux kernel coding style, there are lots of long lines, and I hope to fix that later. The last commit 84fa3ebfbb2a15ddbe160f4cd9ebfb6f8762750c was a try to get rid of private ieee80211 stack and to replace it with in-kernel mac80211. I've done minimal changes in driver to make it use mac80211. But I faced a problem. After that commit I'm unable to connect to wireless network. Here is syslog from insmod to rmmod: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1351816/. Before that commit all things worked. Also, I've tried to modify kernel rtl8180 driver to make it work with rtl8187se NIC, but I had the same problem. When I added some debug output, I saw that rtl8187se_tx() is called after every auth try, then I saw timeout message, and after that there were three TX OK interrupts. Please help me to find source of this problem and to deal with it. I'm stuck here and I have no idea what causes it.
