iwlwifi worse than ever in current git.

iwlwifi worse than ever in current git.

[Dave Jones]

For the last few releases, iwlwifi has been getting consistently worse
wrt reliability for me.  The failure mode has varied, from the chip just
locking up with no tx/rx of packets with nothing being logged, to
microcode warnings, and spewing 'Tx aggregation enabled' messages over and over.

The merge post 3.2 has made these problems a lot worse.  Before, these
lock-ups were happening once or twice a day. Now they happen several times an hour
(and after the first one, they seem more frequent). When they happen,
unloading and reloading the module is the only way for me to get working wireless again.
They may happen more frequently when the laptop is not idle.

I did a bisect of the changes since 3.2, which pointed at 76bc10fcd128ad028cf77c62e179cd20dc2ffecf
as being the culprit, but to be honest I'm not 100% convinced.

Because every step of the way during the bisect, I saw different failure modes,
so when I marked something as 'good', it meant "doesn't lock up in the same way",
even though it may be symptomatic of the same problem.

The specific chip I'm using is a 5300 in a Dell Adamo, connecting to
an Apple airport extreme (current model) in N mode.

ANy thought on this, patch 76bc10fcd128ad028cf77c62e179cd20dc2ffecf move
the tid_data to different layer, it shall not have any functional
changes.

You might want to CC linux-wireless@vger too...

Hi,

Is that series I added a debug flag that tells us what happens with the queues: please enable the 31st bit: 0x80000000

Just debug=0x80000000 as a module parameter.

Ok, I see several issues. Will get back to you
In the meantime: disable11n=1 will help (not sure it is the correct syntax, check out the modinfo please. I am in a hurry now :-))

I am missing logs here... You seem to reauthenticate but I can't see disconnection... weird

Stop AGG before we are associated ?!
Is that leftovers from the previous association that was torn down ?

Associating to another AP ? A band maybe ?

Interesting. The FW is complaining that you are Txing on a channel that is defined as passive channel...

Again.


There are a few AMPDUs issues here but I guess the worst issue you are seeing is due to the passive channel thing.
Does it feel better with 11n disabled ?

I only have one AP.

5 hours of use this morning with 11n_disabled=1, and not a single problem.

I'll re-enable 11n, and get you some cleaner logs shortly.

A possibly interesting datapoint, is that it seems I can make this happen faster
if there's disk IO going on (I ran a make clean on a kernel tree in this case).
Might be entirely coincidental, but thought I'd mention it..

Ok, I finally had a change to take a closer look at this. Please run
with debug=0xC0000000.

This will be noisy, but I guess we have no choice...
I will be travelling next week, so...

It is indeed noisy, and.. I can't reproduce the problem when that's set.
Some timing related problem ?

Ah. Got it. I had to do a large download (a kernel tarball was enough) to trigger it.
Log is at http://davej.fedorapeople.org/iwl-debug.txt

The download began at around 13:17 in the log.
It hung shortly afterwards.

Thanks for that one. Really helpful. I need to send you a patch to get a little more data. I don't know when I will be able to do it though.

Thanks. From what I see, a management frame is sent from an AC queue and when we get the Tx response for this frame, we get sta_id = AP, tid = 0 (and the bug is probably here). So we modify the counters for sta_id = AP, and tid = 0, and this messes up everything.
I guess I need to see why I don't see this issue, and see how to give a hint to the Tx response path that counters shouldn't be modified.

Hi Dan,

[MV] I'm not sure if it is related to the problem you're seeing, but I see that you're using a 5300, so can you try to load the iwlwifi module with the following parameter and see if it helps?

modprobe iwlagn bt_coex_active=0

Thanks,
Meenakshi
