Component: madwifi: driver | Version: trunk
Keywords: stuck beacon | Patch_attached: 1

well, I came across the following message the other day, when I was
playing with my unstable AP...
{{{
[ 2272.119894] wifi1: ath_bstuck_tasklet: Stuck beacon; resetting (beacon
miss count: 11)
[ 2272.233363] wifi1: ath_bstuck_tasklet: Stuck beacon; resetting (beacon
miss count: 641)
}}}
so, what's so spectacular about this?
Well, the hardware/driver somehow called "ath_beacon_send" about 614 times
within
113.5 milliseconds and this seems to be a way too much for a single VAP
with a beacon interval of ~100ms?
