Subject: RTL8192SE blank EFUSE readout after suspend resume cycle
Date: Tue, 04 Oct 2011 14:27:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E8AFBCB.8070100@gmail.com> (raw)
I recently discussed this with Larry Finger and Chaomin Li, but every
once in a while, after having resumed from suspending to RAM, my NIC
(10ec:8172) doesn't work anymore, even after reloading the module. Even
worse, after reloading the module, my NIC's name gets changed (because
of udev rules) as a result of the MAC address changing, which means I
have to temporarily reconfigure whatever I'm using to make a connection
(wicd in my case).
Now, as a byproduct of the other discussion I had (RTL8192SE and 802.11n
problems), I've patched the driver to dump the EFUSE when appropriate
hardware is detected, and this time, I got the following:
rtl8192se 0000:06:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 18
rtl8192se 0000:06:00.0: setting latency timer to 64
rtl8192se: In process "modprobe" (pid 17913):MAP

As you can see, the EFUSE is completely messed up. To fix this problem,
I have to reboot my laptop. I'm not quite sure what could be causing
this, and I was hoping someone here might.
