Subject: wlcore: ERROR Tx stuck (in FW) for 5000 ms. Starting recovery
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2020 10:30:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200427093006.GC25745@shell.armlinux.org.uk> (raw)
Hi,
Having had lots of problems with Broadcom BCM4330 hardware apparently
misbehaving (monitoring the wifi traffic shows lots of retransmissions
eventually resulting in disassociations despite a signal level of
around -40dBm) I decided to replace that machine with one which uses
TI wl18xx WiFi - I have another also using TI wl18xx and that seems
to be doing fine, although has less (and different) clients on.
I'm seeing the following from 5.6 kernels when running wl18xx in AP
mode. I'm not sure what's going on, only that it seems the firmware
is somehow dying. Does this look familiar to anyone?
wlcore: ERROR Tx stuck (in FW) for 5000 ms. Starting recovery
[removed useless drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore/main.c:795 backtrace]
wlcore: Hardware recovery in progress. FW ver: Rev 8.9.0.0.79
wlcore: pc: 0x0, hint_sts: 0x00000020 count: 1
wlcore: down
ieee80211 phy0: Hardware restart was requested
wlcore: PHY firmware version: Rev 8.2.0.0.242
wlcore: firmware booted (Rev 8.9.0.0.79)
Does anyone have ideas how to avoid it?
Thanks.
