[Bug 1305406] [NEW] [8086:4238] iwlwifi: fail to flush all tx fifo queues Q 0

 

Public bug reported:

I have a Lenovo ThinkPad X201 Tablet with an Intel Centrino Ultimate-N
6300 AGN wireless card.  Ever since I have upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10 from
Ubuntu 12.10, I keep experiencing this annoying issue on wireless
networks with multiple APs:  a TX queue gets stuck, and the wireless
card cannot send any packets.  The Wi-Fi LED constantly flashes, and
sometimes, it becomes nearly impossible to restart the wireless card
using Fn+F5.

The NetworkManager connection is setup as follows:

SSID:  IllinoisNet
BSSID:  DA:BE:76:xx:xx:xx
Security:  WPA/WPA2 Enterprise
Authentication:  Protected EAP (PEAP)
CA Certificate:  /etc/ssl/certs/AddTrust_External_Root.pem
PEAP Version:  Automatic
Inner Authentication:  MSCHAPv2

Notice that I have manually specified a BSSID to force the system to use
only one AP (since I have not found a way to reduce the roaming
aggressiveness on Intel wireless cards in Linux).

Attached is the Wireshark log and the syslog output while TX queue 0 is
stuck.
