Subject: Re: ath5k connection loss (failed to wakeup the MAC Chip)
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2009 12:09:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A709E55.2070909@candelatech.com> (raw)

I'm not sure if it helps, but if I:

load ath5k and let some stations associate (I'm testing virtual
STA logic)

.. wait a bit ...

rmmod ath5k; modprobe ath5k

then it fails to wakeup the MAC chip every time.

But, if I then wait a few seconds, and repeat the rmmod/modprobe commands, then it wakes
up and works fine.

I'm running a hacked kernel (and ath5k/wifi stack), so could be something
I'm doing wrong, but just maybe it will give you a reproducible test
case...

Thanks,
Ben
