I am still seeing this issue (or a similar one) with 19.04.

My syslog looks similar to that shown in the following discussion:

(To progress, I'm looking at the following -

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1449438] Re: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

[David Hennerström]

Hi,
I recently bought a used Surface Pro 1 and installed Ubuntu 15.10 on it (uses 
kernel 4.2.0). Already during install it locked up totally two times before I 
tried without connecting to the wireless network. After install everything 
seemed to work fine, I was even able to run apt-get update, but when I started 
up a browser the computer froze up again. Using the USB wifi I normally have on 
my Raspberry Pi I started looking for a solution and even installed 
linux-crashdump to attempt to debug it. However, once I got the crashkernel 
working so I would be able to debug I realized that it was not a real kernel 
crash but something else that made the computer unresponsive. To limit the 
amount of things active I logged in through the console (ctrl+alt+F1) and used 
wget to generate network traffic. The computer immediately went unresponsive, 
but there was no kernel oops. After a while some error messages started 
appearing:

NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 23s! [thermalId:608]
NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s! [thermalId:608]

NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s! [thermalId:608]

(Transcribed from a photo of the screen...)

Following advice from this thread I installed the 4.3 mainline kernel,
and now everything seems to be working. I am getting a lot of "usb 1-3:
data: -ENOSR is returned" messages in the kernel log, but as far as I
can tell they do not affect performance. Playing sound through a
Creative D100 bluetooth speaker also works, with the A2DP sink mode
active and stereo output.

>From looking at the code there are quite a few changes to the mwifiex
driver between 4.2.0 and 4.3.0, it does not seem meaningful to port them
back just to make 15.10 work with the default kernel.

Hope that helps,
David

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1449438] Re: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

[Dirk Schmidtke]

@wilk: After pairing with the car BT, go to settings > sound. You should
see the bluetooth adapter as a sound device. Select it if it's not
selected. Now you should be able to choose a profile. For me, one is a
monophone profile for phone calls (HSP/HFP), the other one is a Hi-Fi
profile (A2DP sink), which should be stereo. I can choose it, but it
gives me no stereo playback, and if I go into sound settings again, the
profile is reset to HSP/HFP.

Thanks for your trouble ...

[Dirk Schmidtke]

@wilk: Could you do me the favor and try to connect to a Bluetooth
headphone or speaker using the profile A2DP sink? Do you get stereo or
just mono like me? Odd thing is, on the Ubuntu live CD, bluetooth stereo
works. As soon as I install Ubuntu from the very same live CD, it
doesn't.

Same thing here, except there is a bug preventing WPA authentication
from working. WPA2 works though, and I've had confirmation from one on
the developpers upstream that they're working on a fix soon to be
released.

[Dirk Schmidtke]

Install the recently released stable Kernel 4.3 from Ubuntu mainline
kernel repository, that solved wlan for me. However, Bluetooth has
issues now with stereo playback. A2DP is selectable, but playback
remains mono. I am still investigating whether this is another marvell
issue (since the marvell card on the Surface Pro is a combined WLAN and
Bluetooth device).

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1449438] Re: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

[++LB]

using a Surface Pro 1,
I have tested with Linux Mint 64-bit 17.2 Rafaela as well, Cinnamon and Xfce 
variants, with no lock ups or odd behavior, other than bluetooth and my mouse 
seemed to lose touch after the mouse slept, but could be a mouse issue(razer 
orochi 2013).

the system did lock up and require hard power off during wifi and
bluetooth usage on 14.04, Ubuntu and Xubuntu, 64-bit.

  Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

Bug description:
  I've been running Ubuntu 14.10 on a Microsoft Surface Pro. After some
  initial problems (see
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1165938) (fixed
  by kernel updates I guess) the wifi was working fine. Since the
  upgrade to 15.04 the problems are back: I can connect to a wifi
  network, the connection is working for a few seconds but drops right
  after. I attached the relevant entries in dmes.log.

  I tried installing the marvell firmware from git://git.marvell.com
  /mwifiex-firmware.git, that didn't change anything. I also tried the
  mainline kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
  ppa/mainline/v4.1-rc1-vivid/: the connection is again working for a
  few seconds but the whole system hangs afterwards.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1449438] Re: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

[Dirk Schmidtke]

@penalvch: I am on the latest BIOS/EFI firmware with my Surface Pro 2
and have got the same problem:

sudo dmidecode -s bios-version  sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2.05.0150
11/27/2014

In order to use Marvell Wifi, I installed the mainline kernel 3.16.
Booting the old kernel makes wifi work again.

  Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've been running Ubuntu 14.10 on a Microsoft Surface Pro. After some
  initial problems (see
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1165938) (fixed
  by kernel updates I guess) the wifi was working fine. Since the
  upgrade to 15.04 the problems are back: I can connect to a wifi
  network, the connection is working for a few seconds but drops right
  after. I attached the relevant entries in dmes.log.

  I tried installing the marvell firmware from git://git.marvell.com
  /mwifiex-firmware.git, that didn't change anything. I also tried the
  mainline kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
  ppa/mainline/v4.1-rc1-vivid/: the connection is again working for a
  few seconds but the whole system hangs afterwards.

@penalvch: I'm not sure I can upgrade the BIOS, I only have Ubuntu
installed on the machine and all the instructions I found rely on
running some Asus application in Windows.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1449438] Re: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

[Christopher M. Penalver]

wilk, as per http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en-us/support/install-
update-activate/pro-update-history an update to your computer's buggy
and outdated BIOS is available (v1.7.50). If you update to this
following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change
anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the 
output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version  sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

  I've been running Ubuntu 14.10 on a Microsoft Surface Pro. After some

  after. I attached the relevant entries in dmes.log.

  I tried installing the marvell firmware from git://git.marvell.com

  mainline kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1449438] Re: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro

[Dirk Schmidtke]

Can confirm this bug on a Surface Pro 2 with the same Marvel wifi chip
(1286:2044) after installing Xubuntu Vivid (clean install, no upgrade).

For me, the wireless connection will be established, but as soon as I
start a browser to use it, the system freezes immediately, so there is
nothing in syslog.

The Marvel wifi chip worked in Ubuntu 14.10 after downloading latest
firmware from Marvel's git and putting it into /lib/firmware/mrvl/.
