Additional info: The only reference I could find was here : https://github.com/rtlwifi-linux/rtlwifi-next but I don't know what that all means.
Not sure if this https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/issues/233 is relevant.
We have staging driver for rtl8822be device. We already enabled some staging Realtek driver on Fedora so perhaps we could enable this one as well. I will provide fedora-kernel with the driver for test.
Here is kernel with the driver enabled. It is rawhide 4.14 kernel as driver is not present in 4.13 kernel. It should be installable on older fedoras via "rpm -ivh --force ...": https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=22548318 You might need to update linux-firmware as well to assure needed rtl8822be*.bin image is there: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=983986 Please test.
Downloaded and installed the kernel as suggested. > rpm -ivh --force kernel-4.14.0-0.rc5.git2.1.r8822be.fc28.x86_64.rpm kernel-core-4.14.0-0.rc5.git2.1.r8822be.fc28.x86_64.rpm kernel-modules-4.14.0-0.rc5.git2.1.r8822be.fc28.x86_64.rpm Rebooted to new kernel. Wifi started and associated but then failed, system hang for some seconds while wifi failed: dmesg output : [ 16.784441] wlp4s0: authenticate with 60:e3:27:44:20:62 [ 16.829817] wlp4s0: send auth to 60:e3:27:44:20:62 (try 1/3) [ 16.831945] wlp4s0: authenticated [ 16.833246] wlp4s0: associate with 60:e3:27:44:20:62 (try 1/3) [ 16.842379] wlp4s0: RX AssocResp from 60:e3:27:44:20:62 (capab=0x431 status=0 aid=3) [ 16.843029] wlp4s0: associated [ 16.843122] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlp4s0: link becomes ready [ 17.202948] NetworkManager (1458) used greatest stack depth: 11744 bytes left [ 22.645593] fuse init (API version 7.26) [ 23.661312] Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized [ 23.661327] Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized [ 23.661460] Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11 [ 25.167522] rfkill: input handler disabled [ 25.583623] pcieport 0000:00:1c.2: AER: Corrected error received: id=00e2 [ 25.583631] pcieport 0000:00:1c.2: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, id=00e2(Transmitter ID) [ 25.583648] pcieport 0000:00:1c.2: device [8086:a112] error status/mask=00001000/00002000 [ 25.583652] pcieport 0000:00:1c.2: [12] Replay Timer Timeout [ 36.191270] r8822be: AP off, try to reconnect now [ 36.191834] wlp4s0: Connection to AP 60:e3:27:44:20:62 lost [ 75.452557] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp4s0: link is not ready [ 83.361963] r8822be: [ERR]Pwr cmd polling timeout!!

Regarding errors we would need Realtek support for those. Regarding crash, please switch to terminal from XWindow (via CTRL+ALT+F2) wait until the crash and provide photo of printed messages. There are other methods for provide crash informations like kdump or netconsole, but picture of terminal messages should be sufficient if it works.
"crash". I probably used the wrong word. I just mean the "Replay Timer Error" occurred many times before the fatal "r8822be: [ERR]Pwr cmd polling timeout!!" message and wifi stopping. The machine did not actually crash.
Please be precise when making bug reports. I am running a 4.14-rc4 system here, and I see neither the splat about size differences during buffer unmap, nor any PCI errors. Could either of you please post the configuration file? Thanks, Larry
Larry, I'm just a poorly end user and don't know what configuration file you are referring to, but am happy to do what I can if you can give me some instructions on what you need.
You should have a file /boot/config-xxxxx, where xxxxx matches the output of the 'uname -r' command. That is the file I need.
Created attachment 1341725 [details] Kernel configuration file
Regarding DMA-API size splat skb->len is used instead of pskb->len . I don't think it causes failure of the driver, but I'll provide kernel to test. However there is worst thing than that, DMA mapping failures are not handed correctly and this seems to be problem with all rtlwifi drivers. Fortunately dma mappings can only fail when IOMMU is enabled or when DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled.
Trevor, below is kernel with the DMA len fix (I posted it here: http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/pipermail/driverdev-devel/2017-October/112676.html). I don't think the patch fixes the overall malfunction, but you can try it, thanks: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=22645889
One more thing. Since we have those PCIe bus error's I would check if there is BIOS update available to the laptop and if it is - update it. If the above kernel and BIOS update will not help, than Larry hopefully could ask his contacts at Realtek for support.
Today, I updated to latest BIOS. There did not seem to be anything in the BIOS release notes that indicated any relevant changes to WIFI chipset or anything else related and as expected I did not see any change in behaviour, that is WIFI still fails with same errors as before.
I have completed my tests here with the Redhat configuration, and I have added all IOMMU options as well as DMA_API_DEBUG. I never see any error messages. I will have the Realtek crew look at this. They may even have access to a Lenovo E570p, which I do not.
Realtek does not have access to a Lenovo E570p, but they have seen the problem with a different Lenovo model. Please try loading the module with ASPM disabled. The command sequence is sudo modprobe -rv r8822be sudo modprobe -v r8822be aspm=0 If that helps, then use your favorite editor (as root) to create a file /etc/modprobe.d/50-r8822be.conf. This file should contain a single line "options r8822be aspm=0". Do not include the quotation marks.
Added "options r8822be aspm=0" to /etc/modprobe.d/50-r8822be.conf and now wifi is working without any issues as far as I can tell. I have been using it without error for about 25 minutes and can't see any errors in the logs. I will continue testing with this kernel, "4.14.0-0.rc5.git2.1.r8822be_v3.fc28.x86_64" and report back if I find any issues . Thanks everyone.
I have been testing for the last few days and had no issues with the on board wifi. :) Should I close this bug or should I leave that until this reaches a stable kernel release in Fedora 28?
CC fedora kernel maintainers, we need to enable the driver ( CONFIG_R8822BE ) in official build to close this bz. We should also apply the fix from comment 16 in the build.
For the record: we have already enabled CONFIG_R8188EU, CONFIG_R8712U, CONFIG_R8723AU Realtek drivers from the staging. Enabling another one should be no problem. Bugs can be reported to me and Larry.
This has been added to rawhide and should appear in 4.14-rc7
We apologize for the inconvenience. There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale. As kernel maintainers, we try to keep up with bugzilla but due the rate at which the upstream kernel project moves, bugs may be fixed without any indication to us. Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 27 kernel bugs. Fedora 27 has now been rebased to 4.15.3-300.f27. 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 experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
This is now working for me. Since Kernel 4.14 AFAICT
Thanks for letting us know.
