Hi,
with the changes (especially for scanning--rtw88) and all the other
minor details gone in the last days I would love to ask people to test
as much as they can on main before I'll merge to stable/14 and also
given stable/15 is imminent.
Unfortunately rtw88 now ( CURRENT revision d3462294c1f0 ) can't
associate with access points while It was working in 659962f96a15 (
Jul 29 )
I just pushed
https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=b568711f8ef1afd7c86ea2d8bd2f94f399f54dc1
into main.
I am sorry but nothing changed so it still can not be associated.
Well, I have some interesting observations related to this issue
If I perform soft reboot after rtw88 testing and start wifibox service
( I am using it as backup wifi based on the same wireless adapter ),
then wifibox fails to initialize wireless adapter. It never happens
That is Linux fails to reset the card too?
if I performing power off /on sequence after rtw88 testing.
I suspect that rtw88 fails to correctly initialize my wireless
adapter and/or firmware crash
rtw880@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x028000 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x10ec
device=0xc821 subvendor=0x1a3b subdevice=0x3040
vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.'
device = 'RTL8821CE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter'
class = network
rtw880: <rtw_8821ce> port 0xd000-0xd0ff mem 0xef100000-0xef10ffff irq
17 at device 0.0 on pci2
rtw880: successfully loaded firmware image 'rtw88/rtw8821c_fw.bin'
rtw880: Firmware version 24.11.0, H2C version 12
Thank you for your hard work
Please let me know how can I debug it further
Do you have more logging of this?
Can you try to:
set wlandebug for the interface to 0xffffffff (all)
Set
kern.msgbufsize=4587520
kern.msgbuf_show_timestamp=2
compat.linuxkpi.80211.debug=0x00100041
in loader.conf
Gather dmesg for me for when it is failing to associate?
If you can confirm that it works before Wednesday afternoon UTC, then I can get
it to stable/15 and into 15.0-RELEASE still.
Thanks a lot for reporting, reminding me, and all the testing you are always
doing. I am sorry it took so long to get this fixed.
Lost of health,
/bz
