Bug#641424: iwlagn: fails to reconnect to WPA2-enterprise (Reason: 23)
Hi Miguel, I have already built kernel 3.0.0-1-amd64 with the required debugging symbols. I've rebooted into the debug kernel, and loaded the iwlagn module with debugging symbols enabled. Or so I think. [MV] I don't see much iwlagn debugging information in the log you sent me. Can you please load the iwlagn module with the following parameters: modprobe iwlagn debug=0x43FFF Thanks, Meenakshi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I'm quite sure I loaded the module with debug information. It is not in the beginning of the debug log, since it connected to Eduroam before I rmmod'ed and modprobed iwlagn with the debug symbols enabled. Anyway, I'll try again tomorrow. -- Dr. Miguel Martinez Canales Department of Physics Astronomy University College London Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT (UK) Fax: +44 207 679 0595 Tlf: +44 207 678 3476 If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple.

Bug#641424: iwlagn: fails to reconnect to WPA2-enterprise (Reason: 23)
Ok, here's some more info: @Ben: 'wheezy' is the testing suite at the moment. Did you start from an earlier installation of testing, or from stable ('squeeze')? The original install is Squeeze (6.0.1a KDE media). I don't think it's likely to be relevant, but could you test without the 'pcie_aspm=force' option? I've done just this. Apparently, however, it doesn't change anything. I only enabled this option to get better power savings, and since I don't exerience lockups, it seemed to be safe. @Meenakshi The AP is, with 95% certainty, a Cisco Aironet 1200 series. 1) Enable debugging for the iwlwifi driver like so: I've tried to do that after installing linux-image-3.0.0-1-amd64-dbg, but modprobing with the debug option failed. Is there a lazy Debian way to get the debug symbols without going all out compiling? 2) A wireless sniffer log would also be useful (not sure you're in a position to gather this log). I fear I have no experience with sniffers. Also, I wouldn't like to do anything that could be interpreted as computer misuse, since this is my workplace after all. Should this be okay, I'd need some guidance. Regards, Miguel

Hi Miguel, 1) Enable debugging for the iwlwifi driver like so: I've tried to do that after installing linux-image-3.0.0-1-amd64-dbg, but modprobing with the debug option failed. Is there a lazy Debian way to get the debug symbols without going all out compiling? Check the kernel config file for the above kernel, and make sure that the following two options are set for the iwlwifi driver. # # Debugging Options # CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG=y CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS=y And that there is debugging for mac80211 as well. CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS=y CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU=y CONFIG_MAC80211_NOINLINE=y CONFIG_MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG=y CONFIG_MAC80211_HT_DEBUG=y CONFIG_MAC80211_TKIP_DEBUG=y CONFIG_MAC80211_IBSS_DEBUG=y CONFIG_MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG=y CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS=y CONFIG_MAC80211_DRIVER_API_TRACER=y If they're not set - you'll have to resort to compiling the kernel with debugging enabled. 2) A wireless sniffer log would also be useful (not sure you're in a position to gather this log). I fear I have no experience with sniffers. Also, I wouldn't like to do anything that could be interpreted as computer misuse, since this is my workplace after all. Should this be okay, I'd need some guidance. Don't worry about this for now. Try to get debugging information for the iwlwifi driver, mac80211, and network-manager (if possible). Also, what kernel version is your Ubuntu 10.10 system using? Thanks, Meenakshi

OK, thanks for the tip. Debian kernel 3.0.0-1 doesn't have these options enabled, so I'll get to know how good the debian kernel build tools are. $ grep CONFIG_IWLWIFI /boot/config-3.0.0-1-amd64 | grep -i debug # CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG is not set # CONFIG_IWLWIFI_LEGACY_DEBUG is not set $ grep CONFIG_MAC80211 /boot/config-3.0.0-1-amd64 CONFIG_MAC80211=m CONFIG_MAC80211_HAS_RC=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL_HT=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_MINSTREL=y CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT=minstrel_ht CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=y CONFIG_MAC80211_LEDS=y # CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS is not set # CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU is not set CONFIG_MAC80211_HWSIM=m Also, Ubuntu 10.10 has kernel 2.6.35, with some extra sauce and backports. I've seen some mentions of 2.6.38 in the changelogs. The iwlagn entries mention only some rfkill changes, though.

Package: linux-2.6 Version: 3.0.0-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, My laptop (T400, Intel WiFi Link 5300) is connected at university using Eduroam, an WPA2-enterprise network.

After a while, however, the connection will be dropped (local reason 3), and will not be reestablished (Reason: 23) after an indefinite number of attempts. Apparently, nm is not able to renew the IP. From the dmesg output, it seems the wifi card is struggling to decide which of two AP it should connect to.

I first thought it was an issue with knetwork-manager in Wheezy's KDE [1], so I upgraded to testing. The issue remains in all kernels I've tried. I've also tried installing Gnome 2.32 from testing and using nm-applet. Following suggestions in some bug reports [2], I've tried disabling 11n and/or disabling power management (seems to be off in any case), but it doesn't help. This is all more puzzling, since my Ubuntu 10.10 partition has no such problems with Eduroam. I should note that Ubuntu 10.10 does disable 11n, but it's reenabled for 11.04 and later. I will try OpenSUSE 11.4 from a live USB to see if the problem also exists there. Finally, it should be mentioned that WPA2 at home works without issues, and with 11n enabled (where I'm writing this from).

From the dmesg output, it seems the wifi card is struggling to decide which of two AP it should connect to. Extract from dmesg right after the first disconnect: I think that's a symptom, not a cause of the failure.

I first thought it was an issue with knetwork-manager in Wheezy's KDE [1], so I upgraded to testing. 'wheezy' is the testing suite at the moment. Did you start from an earlier installation of testing, or from stable ('squeeze')? The issue remains in all kernels I've tried. I've also tried installing Gnome 2.32 from testing and using nm-applet. Following suggestions in some bug reports [2], I've tried disabling 11n and/or disabling power management (seems to be off in any case), but it doesn't help. This is all more puzzling, since my Ubuntu 10.10 partition has no such problems with Eduroam. I should note that Ubuntu 10.10 does disable 11n, but it's reenabled for 11.04 and later. I will try OpenSUSE 11.4 from a live USB to see if the problem also exists there. Finally, it should be mentioned that WPA2 at home works without issues, and with 11n

I'm not sure what reason code 23 is, will need to research it some. WLAN_REASON_IEEE8021X_FAILED = 23, In the meantime, can you do the following so we can see what's going on in the iwlwifi driver: 1) Enable debugging for the iwlwifi driver like so: modprobe iwlagn debug=0x47fff You'll need to enable debugging for iwlwifi while building the kernel. 2) A wireless sniffer log would also be useful (not sure you're in a position to gather this log). Please send me (only) the log. We can take this to bugzilla as well.
