Subject: Possible regression in 3.0-rc4 with RTL8187B
Date: Sat, 25 Jun 2011 10:54:36 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E0604BC.3060002@lwfinger.net> (raw)
While running tests on 3.0-rc4 from the wireless-testing git tree, I tested an
RTL8187B dongle that had not been used for some time. With it, I got the
following WARNING:

This problem may be related to
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31012 and its corresponding report
at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=129995721014931&w=2. AFAICT, this
regression has not been resolved.
As this dongle has not been used in some time, I do not know when the regression
occurred, but I will do some tests to determine that, and then do a bisection.
In the meantime, any suggestions regarding this problem would be appreciated.
The problem does not occur for an RTL8187L, thus only part of rtl8187 is affected.
