I've reproduced it five times at this point - the serial console hangs and the heartbeat LED gets stuck on. There aren't any errors leading up to the hang. Here's the last lines of dmesg that printed before the hang: ---- [ 5021.924439] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: info: --- Rx: Data packet --- [ 5021.924576] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: data: 471285 BSS(0-0): Data <= kernel [ 5021.924616] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: data: mp_rd_bitmap=0x00000000 [ 5021.924627] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: info: no more rd_port available [ 5021.924644] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: data: tid=0 [ 5021.924658] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: data: dequeuing the packet ddfb1240 db063cc0 [ 5021.924674] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: data: WMM: Pkt Delay: 0 ms, 0 ms sent to FW [ 5021.924685] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: data: mp_wr_bitmap=0x0000007f [ 5021.924697] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: data: port=1 mp_wr_bitmap=0x0000007f -> 0x0000007d [ 5021.924708] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: info: mwifiex_host_to_card_mp_aggr: Last packet in Tx Queue.

Is this likely a separate issue? Should I see if I can get GDB set up over JTAG and dump the message buffers after the lockup?
