Description Julian Sikorski 2007-06-21 10:46:23 UTC

Description of problem:
The system log is flooded with the following message:
Jun 21 11:34:22 localhost kernel: iwl3945: REPLY_ADD_STA failed
I don't know if it is harmful, but definitely clutters the log.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.21-1.3228.fc7

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get a PC with Intel ipw3945abg wlan card
2. Install fedora 7
3. Establish a wireless connection
  
Actual results:
log gets flooded with the mentioned message

Expected results:
Not sure... Clean log if everything is OK?

Last night, I had been having this exact same problem.  When I checked the logs,
I was getting this message once every 130 seconds.  And while it was occurring,
any network traffic that was in progress would stall, but then recover after
about two seconds.  Later, the adapter disconnected from the access point and
refused to reconnect until I unloaded and then reloaded the iwl3945 module. 
Since that point, however, I have not had any of the error messages show up.

Note: I was having this problem with 2.6.21-1.3194.fc7 as well.

Haven't attempted to check timestamps, but definitely seeing this frequently:
Linux top 2.6.22.1-33.fc7 #1 SMP Mon Jul 23 16:59:15 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64
x86_64 GNU/Linux

Comment 3 Julian Sikorski 2007-08-06 12:08:30 UTC

Seems to be fixed now.
