[Bug 1591167] [NEW] Bluetooth: hci0 link tx timeout with Intel Corporation Wireless 7260

 

Public bug reported:

Starting with Ubuntu 16.04 (no problem in 15.10) the bluetoth stack
crashes several times a day:

May 20 11:54:59 thinktank kernel: [ 6274.939039] Bluetooth: hci0 link tx timeout
May 20 11:54:59 thinktank kernel: [ 6274.939046] Bluetooth: hci0 killing stalled connection 7c:6d:62:f1:ef:b1
May 20 11:55:01 thinktank kernel: [ 6276.942116] Bluetooth: hci0 command 0x041f tx timeout
May 20 11:55:03 thinktank kernel: [ 6278.946094] Bluetooth: hci0 command 0x0406 tx timeout

I have an Apple Keyboard and Apple Magicmouse connected and the entire
stack is down after seeing the above crash. These are the devices:

input: Apple Wireless Keyboard as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb2/2-11/2-11:1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:512/0005:05AC:023A.0002/input/input18
apple 0005:05AC:023A.0002: input,hidraw1: BLUETOOTH HID v0.50 Keyboard [Apple Wireless Keyboard] on 5c:c5:d4:5d:94:7b

input: ... mouse as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb2/2-11/2-11:
1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:256/0005:05AC:030D.0001/input/input17
magicmouse 0005:05AC:030D.0001: input,hidraw0: BLUETOOTH HID v0.84 Mouse [... mouse] on 5c:c5:d4:5d:94:7b

No input or re-pairing is possible after those timeout messages.
Reloading the kernel firmware modules doesn't help either:

modprobe -r btusb
modprobe btusb

The only way to bring the bluetooth stack up again is to toggle to
standby (S3) and wake up the system again. In this case there firmware
is reloaded and everything back to life:

Since the problem did not occur with Ubuntu 15.10 I traced the issue down to the changed firmware files:
/lib/firmware/intel/ibt-hw-37.7.10-fw-1.80.2.3.d.bseq
of package linux-firmware

Bad:

The numbers in the file name do not correspond to version numbers:
Therefore sha1sum and filesize given to distinguish.

According to

I may file a bug upstream.
