Subject: Re: AP: ath5k + hostapd occasionally sulks
Date: Tue, 08 Sep 2009 11:53:17 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AA69A0D.3040608@redfish-solutions.com> (raw)

I pulled compat-wireless from GIT last night (or about 1:30am mountain,
really) and rebuilt a 2.6.27.29 kernel.

I'm seeing a lot of:

Sep  8 11:44:09 pbx user.err kernel: ath5k phy0: no further txbuf available, dropping packet


one every 10 seconds, in fact.  This is with an Engenius EMP-8062+ card:

00:11.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5413 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
	Subsystem: Atheros Communications Inc. EnGenius EMP-8602 (400mw) or Compex WLM54AG
	Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 168, IRQ 15
	Memory at a0010000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
	Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2
	Kernel driver in use: ath5k
	Kernel modules: ath5k



Is this a known issue? Jon posted the same question, but I didn't see an
answer to his question...

And like him, I'm also using hostapd (but I pulled a GIT at the same
time last night).

I'll probably have to reboot regularly, since this is on an embedded box
with limited CF filesystem, and I can't overflow my /var partition...

Thanks,

-Philip
