charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: b43-dev@lists.infradead.org Hi folks, i'm using a compact flash module, based on broadcom bcm4318 chipset, together with b43 driver from kernel mainline, and i get 'some' troubles trying to associate with APs; here follows 'uname' and 'dmesg' logs: >uname -a Linux nylux 2.6.36 #167 Thu Jan 06 00:37:29 CET 2011 armv5tel GNU/Linux >dmesg ...... bus: 'ssb': registered bus: 'pcmcia': add driver b43-pcmcia bus: 'pcmcia': driver_probe_device: matched device 0.0 with driver b43-pcmcia bus: 'pcmcia': really_probe: probing driver b43-pcmcia with device 0.0 ssb: Core 0 found: ChipCommon (cc 0x800, rev 0x0D, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Core 1 found: IEEE 802.11 (cc 0x812, rev 0x09, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Core 2 found: PCI (cc 0x804, rev 0x0C, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Core 3 found: PCMCIA (cc 0x80D, rev 0x07, vendor 0x4243) ssb: chipcommon status is 0x0 device: 'ssb0:0': device_add bus: 'ssb': add device ssb0:0 ssb: Sonics Silicon Backplane found on PCMCIA device pcmcia0.0 driver: '0.0': driver_bound: bound to device 'b43-pcmcia' bus: 'pcmcia': really_probe: bound device 0.0 to driver b43-pcmcia bus: 'ssb': add driver b43 bus: 'ssb': driver_probe_device: matched device ssb0:0 with driver b43 bus: 'ssb': really_probe: probing driver b43 with device ssb0:0 b43-phy0: Broadcom 4318 WLAN found (core revision 9) b43-phy0 debug: Found PHY: Analog 3, Type 2, Revision 7 b43-phy0 debug: Found Radio: Manuf 0x17F, Version 0x2050, Revision 8 device: 'phy0': device_add ieee80211 phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'minstrel_ht' device: 'wlan0': device_add driver: 'ssb0:0': driver_bound: bound to device 'b43' bus: 'ssb': really_probe: bound device ssb0:0 to driver b43 Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [ Features: M, Firmware-ID: FW13 ] rev= 9 b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/ucode5.fw device: 'ssb0:0': device_add device: 'ssb0:0': device_unregister b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/pcm5.fw device: 'ssb0:0': device_add device: 'ssb0:0': device_unregister b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/b0g0initvals5.fw device: 'ssb0:0': device_add device: 'ssb0:0': device_unregister b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/b0g0bsinitvals5.fw device: 'ssb0:0': device_add device: 'ssb0:0': device_unregister b43-phy0: Loading firmware version 4 b43-phy0: Loading firmware version 478.104 (2008-07-01 00:50:23) b43-phy0 debug: Chip initialized b43-phy0 debug: PIO initialized b43-phy0 debug: QoS enabled device: 'hw_random': device_add b43-phy0 debug: Wireless interface started b43-phy0 debug: Adding Interface type 2 ieee80211 phy0: device no longer idle - scanning ieee80211 phy0: device now idle b43-phy0 debug: Removing Interface type 2 b43-phy0 debug: Wireless interface stopped device: 'hw_random': device_unregister device: 'hw_random': device_create_release b43-phy0: Loading firmware version 478.104 (2008-07-01 00:50:23) b43-phy0 debug: Chip initialized b43-phy0 debug: PIO initialized b43-phy0 debug: QoS enabled device: 'hw_random': device_add b43-phy0 debug: Wireless interface started b43-phy0 debug: Adding Interface type 2 ieee80211 phy0: device no longer idle - scanning ieee80211 phy0: device now idle ieee80211 phy0: device no longer idle - working wlan0: authenticate with 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 (try 1) wlan0: authenticated ieee80211 phy0: device now idle ieee80211 phy0: device no longer idle - working wlan0: associate with 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 (try 1) wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 (capab=0x411 status=0 aid=3) wlan0: associated ieee80211 phy0: Allocated STA 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 ieee80211 phy0: Inserted STA 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: IT b43-phy0 debug: Using hardware based encryption for keyidx: 0, mac: 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 b43-phy0 debug: Using hardware based encryption for keyidx: 1, mac: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff wlan0: detected beacon loss from AP - sending probe request ieee80211 phy0: wlan0: No probe response from AP 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 after 500ms, try 1 ieee80211 phy0: wlan0: No probe response from AP 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 after 500ms, try 2 ieee80211 phy0: wlan0: No probe response from AP 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 after 500ms, try 3 ieee80211 phy0: wlan0: No probe response from AP 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 after 500ms, try 4 ieee80211 phy0: wlan0: No probe response from AP 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 after 500ms, disconnecting. b43-phy0 debug: Disabling hardware based encryption for keyidx: 0, mac: 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 ieee80211 phy0: Removed STA 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 ieee80211 phy0: Destroyed STA 00:15:70:e2:3c:a1 ieee80211 phy0: device now idle b43-phy0 debug: Disabling hardware based encryption for keyidx: 1, mac: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff cfg80211: All devices are disconnected, going to restore regulatory settings cfg80211: Restoring regulatory settings cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain ieee80211 phy0: device no longer idle - scanning ieee80211 phy0: device now idle Note that same stuff happens also with kernel 2.6.37, and same with old firmware version 410.2160 (2007-05-26 15:32:10) cutted from http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2 while other firmware (version 478.104 (2008-07-01 00:50:23)) was from http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.178.10.4.tar.bz2 Any help will be very very very appreciated tks dylan
