This can be flushed by one or more "sysctl dev.ath.X.forcebstuck=1" commands. IT didn't show up in 5GHz mode because I never saw a stuck beacon issue. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: The problem is in ath_legacy_tx_dma_restart(). It was initialising the wrong link pointer and so the TX queue would end up with incorrect link information. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
