Hi,
thanks to you all you for your suggestions: so, as I'm in -current
(#103) firmware should be consistent.
When I upgraded (from #98 to #99) firmware was upgraded too.
I fear this is something related to the lack of support for the chipset
of this main board, as I can see dmesg changing in these days.
I upgraded from #99 to #103 and the problem is still identical.
Wifi had strange behaviors before (it refused to connect to some wifi n
2.4 20 mhz, but randomly it did without any apparent change); however
with other ap was working.
Now it's utterly broken.
If I can do something to help, please let me know.

Do you think this could be firmware relate
Because I also upgraded fw and actually I don't know if the result is
consistent (6.8 is upcoming; I use a snapshots; and fw repository
contains
both 6.8 and snapshots, so I presume I upgraded to snap).

You have moved forward past 6.8 release.
"6.8-beta" pre release
"6.8" close to release, or actual release
"6.8-current" post release
"6.9-beta" pre release
etc.
There have been no changes to the iwx driver or firmware in at least
a month (but there have of course been other kernel changes which may
or may not have an effect).
Can I use fw from 6.7 for testing or could this false the results?
It won't work, from 2020/07/07 the kernel uses -48 firmware which
was added to the fw package a couple of weeks previously.
btw, "after upgrading to the latest snapshot", it is always a good idea
to say what you upgraded *from*, not just *to*.
Moreover Mark Kettenis is working at GPIO for my laptop: could the actual
lack of GPIO driver be related to the problem?

Description:
after upgrading to the latest snapshot, iwx driver is not
working at all. Reported error is:
fatal firmware error: iwx0: could not remove MAC context (error 35)
How-To-Repeat:
upgrade to current #99 and boot.
Fix:
unknown
Nothing was changed in this driver in quite a while.
Can this problem be reproduced with later snapshots?
this one working fine with #102 amd64 GENERIC.MP:
iwx0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 "Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200" rev 0x1a, msix
Thanks. I guess it is the same phantom bug that sometimes happens with
iwm(4) in some kernels. It's unclear to me what is going on and I don't
have time to investigate deeply right now. Help is welcome.
