[Bug 1401624] Re: kernel WARNINGs when disabling WiFi with RF kill switch on Intel chip

 

Did this issue occur in a previous version of Ubuntu, or is this a new
issue?

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.18 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  kernel WARNINGs when disabling WiFi with RF kill switch on Intel chip

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a laptop with this WiFi controller:

  02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (rev 6b)
          Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260
          Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 47
          Memory at e2d00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
          Capabilities: <access denied>
          Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi

  I switched WiFi off with the RF kill switch and got those errors:

  [19011.796623] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: RF_KILL bit toggled to disable radio.
