Package: madwifi-source
Version: 1:0.9.4~rc2-1
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hi,

Network down often and ksoftirqd0/1 take 100% of CPU.
I'm using a netgear wpn311 wireless PCI adapter.

lspci -v
02:01.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212/AR5213
   Multiprotocol MAC/baseband processor (rev 01)
   Subsystem: Netgear Unknown device 5e00

   Memory at fdee0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
   [size=64K]
   Capabilities: <access denied>
   Kernel driver in use: ath_pci
   Kernel modules: ath_pci,ath5k


dmesg
ath_hal: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
ath_hal: 0.9.18.0 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413,
RF5413)

wifi0: Use hw queue 8 for CAB traffic
wifi0: Use hw queue 9 for beacons
wifi0: Atheros 5212: mem=0xfdee0000, irq=16


when the problem occurs, dmesg return this message:
wifi0: rx FIFO overrun; resetting
wifi0: ath_reset: unable to reset hardware: 'Hardware didn't respond as
expected' (HAL status 3)

I do "/etc/init.d/network restart" to resolve the problem, network restart
and ksoftirq returns to sleeping mode.

This problem happens 5 to 6 times during the day.

This is the same problem that this ticket: http://madwifi.org/ticket/1835
