Subject: deadlock in ath9k, 3.3.0+ kernel.
Date: Mon, 02 Apr 2012 09:16:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F79D0C5.6090601@candelatech.com> (raw)

Looks like my ath9k AP locked up over the weekend.  This is
spewing on the console every so often.  The tainting comes from
a non-wireless related module that is very unlikely to be
related to this bug.

I had around 200 stations trying to connect, and probably getting
resarted every few minutes due to idle timer.


BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s! [dhcpd:20435]
