The effect is that after the warning the interface is unusable until
disabled and reenabled with the rfkill switch.
The warning is new in the 31-rc series but the effect was present in
previous versions (at least it probably happened with the 29.x series
- I skipped the 30.x kernels).
The bug is quite easy to reproduce.

Fabio

Looks like ieee80211_scan_completed() racing with suspend()?

Same here.

Interesting, I tried and didn't reproduce it, but I wasn't trying
while scanning before.

Okay, I think I see what is going on here.
suspend
ieee80211_scan_cancel
ieee80211_notify_scan_completed
ieee80211_mlme_scan_completed
ieee80211_ibss_scan_completed
ieee80211_mesh_scan_completed
All of these completed() notifications queue work. That's not a problem
because we flush the workqueue shortly thereafter. However, flushing the
workqueue runs the scheduled work, which can queue _more_ work (sometimes
on a timer with queue_delayed_work), and none of the work functions in
2.6.31 currently check for local->quiesced.
Repeat this process once more and we eventually hit the warning.
Can we just replace the last flush_workqueue() with cancel_delayed_work_sync()
or will that break something?

Well I can't quite convince myself of what exactly is requeing
sta work; we do cancel everything already as far as I can tell, but
something is rearming, I just can't tell which.
Fabio, can you please apply this patch against wireless-testing (not
compat-wireless) and report all the warnings produced when doing a
suspend/resume? This should tell us the code paths that are queuing
work too late.

I'm not a git user. How can I user wireless-testing without git? Is
there a patch or seomething?

No, I'm unaware of a way to get it without git. Well, okay, try
compat-wireless, but be sure to use the 'bleeding edge' compat-wireless,
and post the contents of its 'git-describe' file with the warnings so
I can be sure we're on the same page.

Hi Bob.
Unfortunately the patch doesn't apply at all with compat-wireless,
there's no "flush_workqueue" before "local->suspended" there....
Please advice.

Ah yes, it got moved into ieee80211_stop_device(). Can you put
local->suspended and the barrier() ahead of that?
Thanks!

OK, some more info.
After the warning the system is usable but wireless doesn't work. The
hang happens when I activate the rfkill swich.
This happens even after a fresh boot. After activating the rfkill
switch the console fills with:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for device wlan0 to become free
with a line every 5 seconds or so. At this time the system is
completely unresponsive.
Regards,
Fabio
