  SRU Justification

  Impact: The -22 firmware for iwlwifi introduces regressions with some
  hardware versus earlier firmware versions. As no newer firmware is
  available, the only fix is to revert back to the older firmware which
  does work.

  Test Case: Using the -22 firmware with affected hardware produces the
  behavior described below. The -21 firmware does not.

  Regression Potential: Switching back to -21 could cause some
  regressions with other hardware supported by this firmware. However as
  -22 causes some hardware to completely fail to work any regressions
  are almost certain to be less severe than the current problems.

  ---

  The -22 microcode for the intel 8260 wifi adapter has compatibility
  issues with Linux Kernel 4.8 under certain hardware configurations.

  The iwlwifi module crashes resulting in wifi failing with "device not
  ready" and kernel errors reported in dmesg.

  [   10.691115] iwlwifi :6e:00.0: Microcode SW error detected.
  Restarting 0x200.

  Renaming the ucode file at /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-22.ucode to
  fallback to the -21 ucode resolves the issue and wifi begins working
  normally again.

  This is an issue with Linux kernel 4.8 on both yakkety and xenial, so
  the bug doesn't currently affect users on xenial, but will begin to
  after the 16.04.2 HWE release.  Kernel 4.4 is unaffected because it
  doesn't attempt to use the -22 ucode

  The failure doesn't necessarily affect all machines of a given model
  with the 8260, but I can reproduce it on multiple laptops when 64GB of
  RAM are installed (4x16GB).  The RAM itself does not appear to be an
  issue.

The current verification-done tag looks like it is intended for Zesty
only, and the Xenial proposed package still needs verification.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1647826] Re: intel 8260 doesn't work with linux kernel 4.8+ when using ucode version 22

[Francois Thirioux]

I understand that reverting to 21 can solve severe bugs, but since 21
reverting (experienced in Zesty with 164.1 and now in Artful with 165
versions of linux-firmware package) it seems that my connection is
sometimes poor (web pages loading hangs, e.g.). With 22 I do not see
such hangs or slowdowns.

Maybe it caused too a severe kernel hang (CPU lockup) that I got two
times in two days in Zesty without any other critical packages upgrading
except linux-firmware. But clearly that's hypothetical, although I never
got any severe crash like this before during Zesty's alpha-beta-release
lifetime.

For people like me that do not like 21, move :
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/iwlwifi-8000C-22.ucode
to :
/lib/firmware
and reboot.

My hardware : Dell precision 7510 16 Gb ram, intel wifi 8260

  Test Case: Using the -22 firmware with affected hardware produces the
  behavior described below. The -21 firmware does not.

  Regression Potential: Switching back to -21 could cause some
  regressions with other hardware supported by this firmware. However as
  -22 causes some hardware to completely fail to work any regressions
  are almost certain to be less severe than the current problems.

  ---

  The -22 microcode for the intel 8260 wifi adapter has compatibility
  issues with Linux Kernel 4.8 under certain hardware configurations.

  The iwlwifi module crashes resulting in wifi failing with "device not
  ready" and kernel errors reported in dmesg.

  [   10.691115] iwlwifi :6e:00.0: Microcode SW error detected.
  Restarting 0x200.

  Renaming the ucode file at /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-22.ucode to
  fallback to the -21 ucode resolves the issue and wifi begins working
  normally again.

  This is an issue with Linux kernel 4.8 on both yakkety and xenial, so
  the bug doesn't currently affect users on xenial, but will begin to
  after the 16.04.2 HWE release.  Kernel 4.4 is unaffected because it
  doesn't attempt to use the -22 ucode

  The failure doesn't necessarily affect all machines of a given model
  with the 8260, but I can reproduce it on multiple laptops when 64GB of
  RAM are installed (4x16GB).  The RAM itself does not appear to be an
  issue.

Bug description:
  The -22 microcode for the intel 8260 wifi adapter has compatibility
  issues with Linux Kernel 4.8 under certain hardware configurations.

  The iwlwifi module crashes resulting in wifi failing with "device not
  ready" and kernel errors reported in dmesg.

  [   10.691115] iwlwifi :6e:00.0: Microcode SW error detected.
  Restarting 0x200.

  Renaming the ucode file at /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-22.ucode to
  fallback to the -21 ucode resolves the issue and wifi begins working
  normally again.

  This is an issue with Linux kernel 4.8 on both yakkety and xenial, so
  the bug doesn't currently affect users on xenial, but will begin to
  after the 16.04.2 HWE release.  Kernel 4.4 is unaffected because it
  doesn't attempt to use the -22 ucode

  The failure doesn't necessarily affect all machines of a given model
  with the 8260, but I can reproduce it on multiple laptops when 64GB of
  RAM are installed (4x16GB).  The RAM itself does not appear to be an
  issue.

Just tested 1.161.1 in yakkety-proposed and can confirm it fixes the
issue.
