ath9k has a race on putting the chip into network sleep and having registers read from hardware. The race occurs because although ath9k_ps_restore() locks its own callers it makes use of some variables which get altered in the driver at different code paths. The variables are the ps_enabled and ps_flags. This is easily reprodicible in large network environments when roaming with the wpa_supplicant simple bgscan. You'd get some 0xdeadbeef read out on certain registers such as: ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x806c: 0xdeadbeef & 0x01f00000 != 0x00000000 ath: RX failed to go idle in 10 ms RXSM=0xdeadbeef ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x7000: 0xdeadbeef & 0x00000003 != 0x00000000 ath: Chip reset failed The fix is to protect the ath9k_config(hw, IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_PS) calls with a spin_lock_irqsave() which will disable contendors for these variables from interrupt context, timers, re-entry from mac80211 on the same callback, and most importantly from ath9k_ps_restore() which is the only call which will put the device into network sleep. There are quite a few threads and bug reports on these a few of them are: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/linux/+bug/407040 http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=5709 http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=5943 Stable fixes apply to [2.6.32+] Cc: stable@kernel.org Cc: Paul Stewart <pstew@google.com> Cc: Amod Bodas <amod.bodas@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.
