ath5k updates the channel pointer and after that it stops the Rx logic and apply channel to HW. In case of channel switch, such sequence creates a small window when a frame, which is received on the old channel is considered as a frame received on the new one. The most notable consequence of this situation occurs during the switch from 2 GHz band (CCK+OFDM) to the 5GHz band (OFDM-only). Frame received with CCK rate, e.g. beacon received at the 1mbps, causes the following warning: WARNING: at ath5k/base.c:589 ath5k_tasklet_rx+0x318/0x6ec [ath5k]() invalid hw_rix: 1a [..] Call Trace: [<802656a8>] show_stack+0x48/0x70 [<802dd92c>] warn_slowpath_common+0x88/0xbc [<802dd98c>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x2c/0x38 [<81b51be8>] ath5k_tasklet_rx+0x318/0x6ec [ath5k] [<8028ac64>] tasklet_action+0x8c/0xf0 [<80075804>] __do_softirq+0x180/0x32c [<80196ce8>] irq_exit+0x54/0x70 [<80041848>] ret_from_irq+0x0/0x4 [<80182fdc>] ioread32+0x4/0xc [<81b4c42c>] ath5k_hw_set_sleep_clock+0x2ec/0x474 [ath5k] [<81b4cf28>] ath5k_hw_reset+0x50/0xeb8 [ath5k] [<81b50900>] ath5k_reset+0xd4/0x310 [ath5k] [<81b557e8>] ath5k_config+0x4c/0x104 [ath5k] [<80d01770>] ieee80211_hw_config+0x2f4/0x35c [mac80211] [<80d09aa8>] ieee80211_scan_work+0x2e4/0x414 [mac80211] [<8022c3f4>] process_one_work+0x28c/0x400 [<802df8f8>] worker_thread+0x258/0x3c0 [<801b5710>] kthread+0xe0/0xec [<800418a8>] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c The easiest way to reproduce this warning is to run scan with dualband NIC in noisy environments, when the channel 11 runs multiple APs. In my tests if the APs num >= 12, the warning appears in the first few seconds of scanning. In order to fix this, the Rx disable code moved to a higher level and placed before the channel pointer update. This is also makes the code a bit more symmetrical, since we disable and enable the Rx in the same function. In fact, at the pointer update time new frames should not appear, because interrupt generation at this point should already be disabled. The next patch should address this issue.
