Hi,
I was using the ath5k_pci driver on a macbook pro 1,1 and it is working
for some time but then suddenly messages like the ones below appear and
I have to *turn off* the machine to get it back working (even booting to
osx is not sufficient - osx won't have network when things go wrong as
they do after a couple of hours). Note that this happens with both
2.6.27 and .28.
Soeren
(things were working at first and then not and then the symptom occured)

Does the _HW lockup_ happen even with 2.6.28? The lockup should be gone there
(with the messages still present).

I see Bob already replied, ignore me, he knows better.

I thought Felix's patch had gone into .28, but in fact it hasn't.
We should probably get it in or queue it for .28.1 -- it's a two
liner that will fix a lot of people's setups.
John, if you're reading, that's 23c401574b16cb2b6d2231ba405ebf85b8c87de5
in wireless-testing.
The lockup can still occur, but it's a lot less frequent with his patch.

Happens about 1 in 10 times on resume from ram.

Felix's patch is for Noise Floor calibration timeout which is
non-fatal, here we have a problem with gain offset calibration. If
gain offset calibration fails, we can't have i/q correction and we
can't tune to that channel propertly.
This is a known problem also reported on binary HAL ;-)
http://madwifi-project.org/ticket/1869
we miss something in rf/phy initialization i guess...

I remember to having had a similar problem with madwifi-ng at some
point. However, that disappeared and I also remember that other people
were still seeing it. That one could at least be easily fixed by using
just a single cpu-core. But I don't remember that it really required a
power down of the machine....
