Subject: ath5k regression associating with APs in 2.6.38
Date: Wed, 4 May 2011 10:38:19 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110504153819.GA4551@thinkpad-t410> (raw)
I've been investigating some reports of a regression in associating with
APs with AR2413 in 2.6.38. Association repeatedly fails with some
"direct probe to x timed out" messages (see syslog excerpt below),
although it will generally associate eventually, after many tries.
Bisection identifies 8aec7af (ath5k: Support synth-only channel change
for AR2413/AR5413) as offending commit. Prior to this commit there are
no direct probe messages at all in the logs. I've also found that
forcing fast to false at the top of ath5k_hw_reset() fixes the issue.
I'm not sure what the connection is between this commit and the
timeouts. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Seth
