Description of problem: The Irda usb stick doesn't work since kernel-4.9.x. (Fedora 24 or 25) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Kernel: kernel-4.9.11-200.fc25.x86_64 Irda-utils: irda-utils-0.9.18.fc25 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug an irda usb stick. 2. run: sudo irattach irda0 -s Actual results: The irda's led doesn't blink. Expected results: The irda's led blinks. Additional info: Tested on two different computer. First on Fedora 24 with a kernel-4.5.5 Work like a charm, even with the modprobe error. To have the right running status, I must downgrade the kernel to a 4.5.5. févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin sudo[2677]: rapin : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/home/rapin ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/sbin/irattach irda0 -s févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin audit[2677]: USER_CMD pid=2677 uid=1000 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='cwd="/home/rapin" cmd=6972617474616368206972646 févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin audit[2677]: CRED_REFR pid=2677 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:setcred grantors=pam_unix acct="root" exe= févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin sudo[2677]: pam_systemd(sudo:session): Cannot create session: Already running in a session févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin audit[2677]: USER_START pid=2677 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:session_open grantors=pam_keyinit,pam_lim févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin sudo[2677]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by rapin(uid=0) févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin irattach[2681]: executing: '/sbin/modprobe irda0' févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin irattach[2681]: + modprobe: FATAL: Module irda0 not found in directory /lib/modules/4.5.5-300.fc24.x86_64 févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin irattach[2681]: Trying to load module irda0 exited with status 1 févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin sudo[2677]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin audit[2677]: USER_END pid=2677 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:session_close grantors=pam_keyinit,pam_limi févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin audit[2677]: CRED_DISP pid=2677 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:setcred grantors=pam_unix acct="root" exe= févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin irattach[2685]: executing: 'echo laptop > /proc/sys/net/irda/devname' févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin irattach[2685]: executing: 'echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/irda/discovery' févr. 27 21:30:39 laptop.rapin irattach[2685]: Starting device irda0 Second on a fedora 25 with kernel-4.9.11-200.fc25.x86_64 Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet sudo[19099]: jeremie : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/home/jeremie ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/sbin/irattach irda0 -s Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet audit[19099]: USER_CMD pid=19099 uid=1000 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='cwd="/home/jeremie" cmd=6972617474616368206972646130202D73 terminal=pts/0 res=succe Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet audit[19099]: CRED_REFR pid=19099 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:setcred grantors=pam_env,pam_unix acct="root" exe="/usr/bin/sudo" hostname=? a Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet audit[19099]: USER_START pid=19099 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:session_open grantors=pam_keyinit,pam_limits,pam_keyinit,pam_limits,pam_syste Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet sudo[19099]: pam_systemd(sudo:session): Cannot create session: Already running in a session Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet sudo[19099]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0) Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19100]: executing: '/sbin/modprobe irda0' Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19100]: + modprobe: FATAL: Module irda0 not found in directory /lib/modules/4.9.11-200.fc25.x86_64 Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19100]: Trying to load module irda0 exited with status 1 Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet audit[19099]: USER_END pid=19099 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:session_close grantors=pam_keyinit,pam_limits,pam_keyinit,pam_limits,pam_system Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet audit[19099]: CRED_DISP pid=19099 uid=0 auid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='op=PAM:setcred grantors=pam_env,pam_unix acct="root" exe="/usr/bin/sudo" hostname=? a Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet sudo[19099]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19104]: executing: 'echo laptop-freetibet > /proc/sys/net/irda/devname' Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19104]: executing: 'echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/irda/discovery' Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19104]: Starting device irda0 Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19104]: ioctl(SIOCSIFFLAGS): Resource temporarily unavailable Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19104]: Stopping device irda0 Feb 27 20:13:27 laptop-freetibet irattach[19104]: exiting ...

*********** MASS BUG UPDATE ************** We apologize for the inconvenience. There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale. Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 25 kernel bugs. Fedora 25 has now been rebased to 4.10.9-200.fc25. Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel. If you have moved on to Fedora 26, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 26. If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.

Upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195217 I've posted a patch to fix the issue. It was also sent to netdev. It's not too unlikely that it will land upstream and in -stable.
The fix went upstream and is also part of -stable, f.e. in 4.12.6. Confirmed the fix is working on Fedora 25 with the 4.12.8 kernel update. -> this bugzilla entry is resolved.
Hi, the fix works on Fedora25 and Fedora26 with kernel 4.12.8. Thanks for you work. Great job.
