Subject: iwlwifi: network not back after resuming from suspend since v6.15-rc2
Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 14:49:46 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <agFzc-Ngf_ZFXJ3o@Rk> (raw)
Hi Emmanuel,
I notice since v6.15-rc2, most of the times the network won't be back
again after resuming from suspend. And sometimes I need to run
"systemctl suspend" for 8 or 9 consecutive times to make WIFI available
again. bisect and manual reverting show 15220a257319 ("wifi: iwlwifi:
don't warn if the NIC is gone in resume") is the 1st bad commit.
Here are some other clues that may help resolve this issue,
1. An iwlwifi setting [1] can make this issue disappear,
options iwlwifi swcrypto=0
options iwlwifi bt_coex_active=0
options iwlwifi power_save=0
options iwlwifi uapsd_disable=1
options iwlmvm power_scheme=1
2. Before v6.15-rc2, the issue rarely happens. And if it happens,
simply suspending once can bring the network online again. Other
users seem to have experienced the same issue e.g. [2][3][4].
3. Suspending by "rtcwake -m mem -s 5" instead of by "systemcl suspend"
can make it much easier to reproduce this issue for kernels older
than v6.15-rc2.
If you need more details from me, feel free to let me know! And I'll
very happy to test any possible solutions. Thanks!
## Notes on bisect
The bisect is done with an experimental branch [5] of
kernel-auto-bisect tool [6].
1. bisect conf file
TEST_STRATEGY="simple"
RUNS_PER_COMMIT=6
RUNS_PER_GOOD_COMMIT=3
GOOD_COMMIT=6.14.4-300.fc42.x86_64
BAD_COMMIT=6.19.14-200.fc43.x86_64
REPRODUCER_SCRIPT=reproducer_wifi.sh
2. Reproducer
on_test() {
# If sleep only 5 or 10 s, somehow the system will get suspended forever i.e.
# "rtcwake -m on won't wake up the system .
sleep 15
ip --brief addr show wlp4s0
# "rtcwake -m mem -s 5" will quite often makes wifi unavailable. So use
# systemctl suspend instead
#rtcwake -m mem -s 5
# Wake up the system after 4s
rtcwake -m on -s 4 &
systemctl suspend
sleep 12
ip --brief addr show wlp4s0 | grep -q " UP "
}
kernel-auto-bisect went through a two-phase bisection,
1. find 6.14.6-300.fc42.x86_64 as the 1st bad build
2. find Fedora kernel commit 6453e892cf86c [7] as 1st bad commit
I can't bisect against upstream kernel directly because v6.15-rc2 won't
be able to mount my root partition. So I manually reverted upstream
15220a257319 ("wifi: iwlwifi: don't warn if the NIC is gone in resume")
in v6.15 to confirm it's indeed the bad commit.
