Description Clayton Rogers 2006-03-03 07:21:56 UTC 
Description of problem:
I have the ipw2200 firmware installed for my Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless
2915ABG MiniPCI Adapter.  I receive the following error when activating the
wireless device:
NETDEV_TX_BUSY returned; driver should report queue full via
ieee_device->is_queue_full.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.15-1.1996_FC5

How reproducible:
All the time

Steps to Reproduce:
1.rmmod ipw2200 at boot
2.modprobe ipw2200 
3.produces NETDEV_TX_BUSY returned; driver should report queue full via
ieee_device->is_queue_full. in /var/log/messages
  
Actual results:
NETDEV_TX_BUSY returned; driver should report queue full via
ieee_device->is_queue_full.

Expected results:
Start activating the network device in NetworkManager and acquiring a network
address.

Additional info:
Apparently supposed to have been fixed in version 1.0.9 of the ipw2200 module.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2006-04-22 21:51:07 UTC 
Seeing this with an ipw2200 adapter on a 2.6.16-1.2069_FC5 kernel.
Comment 2 John W. Linville 2006-05-18 19:35:08 UTC 
Is this issue still occurring w/ current Fedora kernels
Comment 3 Horst H. von Brand 2006-05-18 21:48:11 UTC 
Not here anymore, for quite some time.
Comment 4 John W. Linville 2006-05-19 14:14:46 UTC 
Horst, are you on FC5?  Or rawhide? 
 
It looks like this is (mostly) fixed upstream, but the fix is not in FC5.
Comment 5 Horst H. von Brand 2006-05-19 14:37:44 UTC 
Sorry, didn't notice this is Fedora 5. I'm on rawhide, and here ipw2200 works
just fine for quite some time now.
Comment 6 Clayton Rogers 2006-05-19 20:55:48 UTC 
It is still occurring on my end on a stock standard FC5.  Details below: 
# uname -a
Linux zion 2.6.16-1.2111_FC5 #1 Thu May 4 21:16:58 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
rmmod ipw2200
modprobe ipw2200
eth0: NETDEV_TX_BUSY returned; driver should report queue full via
ieee_device->is_queue_full.
Comment 7 John W. Linville 2006-05-21 20:16:00 UTC 
Clayton, thanks for the confirmation.  Please see comment 4.
Comment 8 Behdad Esfahbod 2006-08-15 04:15:52 UTC 
Suffering this in an updated FC5 everyday...  Any hope to have it fixed?
Comment 9 John W. Linville 2006-08-15 13:18:33 UTC 
Behdad, please include the output of 'uname -r'?  The patch for this issue 
seems to be in the latest FC5 kernels already.
