Supply the following if possible:

  • Device problem occurs on
  • Software versions of LEDE release, packages, etc.
  • Steps to reproduce

with e.g. r2805 on a 'TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND' sometimes i can see:

# top Mem: 24448K used, 3492K free, 5468K shrd, 448K buff, 6512K cached CPU: 0% usr 100% sys 0% nic 0% idle 0% io 0% irq 0% sirq Load average: 8.80 8.48 7.93 6/48 7243 [...] no task >10%

see the "100% sys" - sometimes load goes >25.
there is no memory pressure and nothing in the log.

when doing 'wifi down' it seems to hang forever.
sometimes it goes away without doing anything.
wifi-mode is adhoc+ap - see the config:

what i also detected is, that sometimes the counters in /proc/interrupts are
stopping for some (e.g. 20) minutes and ofcourse wifi hangs during this period.

when debugging this with

echo 0x4409 >/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/debug

i can see a lot of hangs and resets (~once per second)

Hi Bastian,

this problem might be a duplicate of [[https://bugs.lede-project.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=13|FS#13 - Ath9k AP stays up for connected clients but doesn't show in scan on new ones]]
