Description of problem: I have network card D-Link DWA-552 which uses ath9k driver. I tried hostapd trunk version as well as 0.7.0 which are working fine with F11 kernel, but with F12 kernel I immediately experienced DHCP problems and wifi clients were disconnected after about 2-5 minutes after the handshake was established (and did not reconnect afterwards). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Here are the kernel versions I tried with hostapd 0.7.0 and with latest git as well: kernel-PAE-2.6.30.9-99.fc11.i686 - working kernel-PAE-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686 - not working kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686 - not working kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-160.fc12.i686 - not working kernel-PAE-2.6.32-0.65.rc8.git5.fc13.i686 - not working How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use F12 kernels (or later) 2. 3. Actual results: unstable wifi connection Expected results: stable wifi connection Additional info: Logs when using kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-160.fc12.i686: ----------------------------- STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx sent probe request for our SSID STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx sent probe request for our SSID MGMT (TX callback) fail mgmt::proberesp cb MGMT (TX callback) fail mgmt::proberesp cb MGMT mgmt::auth authentication: STA=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx auth_alg=0 auth_transaction=1 status_code=0 wep=0 New STA wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: authentication OK (open system) wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx MLME: MLME-AUTHENTICATE.indication(xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, OPEN_SYSTEM) wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx MLME: MLME-DELETEKEYS.request(xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) authentication reply: STA=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx auth_alg=0 auth_transaction=2 resp=0 (IE len=0) MGMT (TX callback) fail mgmt::auth cb wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response MGMT mgmt::assoc_req association request: STA=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx capab_info=0x411 listen_interval=10 WMM IE - hexdump(len=7): 00 50 f2 02 00 01 00 Validating WMM IE: OUI 00:50:f2 OUI type 2 OUI sub-type 0 version 1 QoS info 0x0 nl80211: Set beacon (beacon_set=1) new AID 1 wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: association OK (aid 1) MGMT (TX callback) fail mgmt::assoc_resp cb wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge association response STA yy:yy:yy:yy:yy:yy sent probe request for broadcast SSID MGMT (TX callback) fail mgmt::proberesp cb STA yy:yy:yy:yy:yy:yy sent probe request for broadcast SSID MGMT (TX callback) fail mgmt::proberesp cb ----------------------------- It also fired a bug: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 080b5f80 IP: [<080b5f80>] 0x80b5f80 *pdpt = 000000002593c001 *pde = 0000000025926067 *pte = 0000000000000000 Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.0/net/wlan0/broadcast Modules linked in: ath9k mac80211 ath cfg80211 rfkill fuse via drm sunrpc padlock_aes aes_i586 aes_generic nf_nat_ftp nf_conntrack_ftp xt_pkttype xt_limit ipt_LOG iptable_mangle iptable_nat nf_nat ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 ip6table_filter ip6_tables ipv6 cpufreq_ondemand acpi_cpufreq dm_multipath uinput arc4 ecb snd_via82xx gameport snd_ac97_codec ac97_bus snd_seq snd_pcm snd_timer snd_page_alloc snd_mpu401_uart snd_rawmidi snd_seq_device i2c_viapro snd via_rhine soundcore i2c_core firewire_ohci firewire_core crc_itu_t r8169 mii raid0 raid1 ata_generic pata_acpi pata_via [last unloaded: rfkill] Pid: 3573, comm: bluetooth-apple Not tainted (2.6.31.6-160.fc12.i686.PAE #1) EIP: 0060:[<080b5f80>] EFLAGS: 00010246 CPU: 0 EIP is at 0x80b5f80 EAX: e59f9680 EBX: e59f9680 ECX: f88fe658 EDX: 00000000 ESI: 00000000 EDI: e5965e74 EBP: e5965f8c ESP: e5965be4 DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 00e0 SS: 0068 Process bluetooth-apple (pid: 3573, ti=e5964000 task=e58572c0 task.ti=e5964000) Stack: c04d4ee9 00001000 00080097 00080097 e5965ec4 09ce9df0 00000000 00c48740 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000001 e5965ebc c04d4818 00000019 00000000 e58572c0 00000000 00000000 00000009 e59cf980 00000019 00000000 e5965c18 Call Trace: [<c04d4ee9>] ? do_sys_poll+0x213/0x3c8 [<c04d4818>] ? __pollwait+0x0/0xaa [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c04d48c2>] ? pollwake+0x0/0x65 [<c056b979>] ? avc_has_perm+0x41/0x4b [<c0755c09>] ? scm_recv+0x32/0xa1 [<c0756967>] ? unix_stream_recvmsg+0x391/0x3b0 [<c056be05>] ? selinux_socket_recvmsg+0x1a/0x1c [<c06e37e2>] ? __sock_recvmsg+0x56/0x60 [<c06e5680>] ? sock_aio_read+0xac/0xb8 [<c04c89e2>] ? do_sync_read+0xae/0xe9 [<c056cffd>] ? file_has_perm+0x89/0xa3 [<c0450d39>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x34 [<c056d2ed>] ? selinux_file_permission+0x49/0x4d [<c0566617>] ? security_file_permission+0x14/0x16 [<c04c8aba>] ? rw_verify_area+0x9d/0xc0 [<c04d51df>] ? sys_poll+0x44/0x8d [<c0477ce0>] ? audit_syscall_exit+0xff/0x114 [<c0408f9b>] ? sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x28 Code: Bad EIP value.

Created attachment 376765 [details] Fix TX status reporting in ath9k
The patch that I just attached here is expected to resolve the issue with ath9k not reporting the TX status correctly and as such, making hostapd not allow stations to complete association in some cases. I'm not sure whether this is related to the part of getting disconnected after 2-5 minutes, but this will hopefully handle the not being able reconnect part which is clearly visible in the debug log from hostapd here.
Hi, I can confirm that after applying this patch, it is possible to connect. However, connection is still very unstable, and does not last more than 2 minutes in my case.
I had exact the same problems before. But now I have to confirm, that my FC 12 with the recent compat-wireless-2009-12-08 (which includes the patch mentioned above) is working - stable @54MBit ! Hardware: Mainboard Intel Atom N270 (2.6.31.6-162.fc12.i686 -no PAE!!!) Wireless NIC: Sparklan WPEA-110N MINI PCI Express (AR9280) ath9k hostapd: 0.7.0 /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf interface=wlan1 bridge=br0 driver=nl80211 logger_syslog=-1 logger_syslog_level=2 logger_stdout=-1 logger_stdout_level=2 ssid=XXXXXXXXXXXX wpa=2 wpa_psk_file=/etc/hostapd/hostapd.wpa_psk wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK wpa_pairwise=CCMP wpa_group_rekey=600 wpa_gmk_rekey=86400 channel=1 macaddr_acl=0 hw_mode=g country_code=DE eapol_key_index_workaround=0 eap_server=0 ieee80211n=1 ht_capab=[HT40+][SHORT-GI-40][DSSS_CCK-40] cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 DEVICE=br0 TYPE=Bridge BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=172.21.254.254 NETMASK=255.255.0.0 ONBOOT=yes DELAY=0 STP=no DNS=172.21.254.254 DOMAIN=intra.acme.com I suppose that the usage of the PAE kernel plus the missing patch was the reason why the wireless network was unstable. If shorewall is what you're using as firewall script, do not forget to add 'dhcp' as 'options' for the 'br0' interface in /etc/shorewall/interfaces. This will help your dhcpd server to answer the requests of the clients ;-) Well done! Thank you very much !
I can confirm all of the previous observations on my own hardware. To sum up: 1) The unmodified kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686 (or any other kernel from Fedora 12 for that matter) breaks hostapd (the error message is "did not acknowledge association response"). All the 2.6.30 PAE kernels from Fedora 11 seem to work fine. 2) Applying the patch from comment #1 to kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686 allows the hostapd to complete station association. However, the communication is very unstable and generally dies after 2 - 3 minutes when the association is no longer possible (no specific error message can be found in the logs). 3) Compiling compat-wireless-2.6 modules (2009-12-11) against kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686 helps even more, but the communication is still very unstable (the data rate generally drops to 1 Mb even for devices four feet away from the ath9k; sometimes the connection dies out completely). Again, nothing much interesting in can be found in the logs. 4) The only combination which gives perfect performance and a rock-solid stability is compat-wireless-2.6 (2009-12-11) compiled against a non-PAE kernel-2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686. The fact that the PAE kernel somehow contributes to the problem is really strange. I have just spent several hours analysing the changes between kernel-PAE-2.6.30.9-99.fc11.i686 and kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686, but I haven't found anything which could lead me to the root cause of the bug. Are there any kernel hackers who are willing to look into that? Many thanks. 168c:0029 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR922X Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
It took me serveral hours to find out that the only working kernel is the one *without* PAE. Interessting is that a `tcpdump -n -v -i <wlanX>` on the server side spit out the ARP and the broadcasts requests of the client. Dhcp reqeusts where not answered by the server. I suppose its a problem within the tcp conversation / handshake / ACK. Hmm... I can not figure out whats the different between a PAE and a non PAE kernel causing such a rude behaviour..
I am still experiencing this issue with the latest 2.6.31.9-174 kernel on x86_64. hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:21:5c:39:a3:99 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response Nothing but those in my hostapd log. However if I build & install the latest compat-wireless, it seems to be fine. seems we just have to wait for the developers/maintainers to get back from their holiday travels and push the latest fixes into the F12 kernel release.
I'm still experiencing this issue with latest Fedora 12 kernel-PAE-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686 and Hostapd 0.7.1 Hostapd logs: Jan 25 07:46:59 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:14:de:2c:94:84 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response Jan 25 07:47:38 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:34:3b:ba:b5:f2 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response Jan 25 07:47:48 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:34:3b:ba:b5:f2 IEEE 802.11: disassociated Jan 25 07:47:49 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:34:3b:ba:b5:f2 IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to inactivity Jan 25 07:47:51 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:14:de:2c:94:84 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response Jan 25 07:48:00 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:34:3b:ba:b5:f2 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response Jan 25 07:48:02 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:34:3b:ba:b5:f2 IEEE 802.11: disassociated Jan 25 07:48:03 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:34:3b:ba:b5:f2 IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to inactivity Jan 25 07:48:05 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:14:de:2c:94:84 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response Jan 25 07:48:12 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:14:de:2c:94:84 IEEE 802.11: disassociated Jan 25 07:48:13 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:14:de:2c:94:84 IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to inactivity Jan 25 07:48:14 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:14:de:2c:94:84 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response Jan 25 07:49:14 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:14:de:2c:94:84 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response On the other hand kernel-PAE-2.6.30.10-105.fc11.i686 from Fedora 11 with Hostapd 0.7.1 is working fine. It seems to be a long holiday...
I'm testing 2.6.32.7-37.fc12.x86_64.. So far, my clients are connecting.. If you don't see a further post from me within a few days, assume it's happy. :)
Hi George, it sounds great. It is not a PAE kernel, isn't it? Which version of hostapd do you use - I suppose the latest one. I read about improvements supporting wireless network cards in oncoming kernel versions (>2.6.31). So your result might be the first proof of it ;-) Well done !
Hi guys, I tried to compile below versions of compat-wireless (from http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download/stable/) with below kernels and hostapd 0.7.1: - kernel-PAE-2.6.30.10-105.fc11.i686 + compat-wireless-2.6.30 - works fine - kernel-PAE-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686 + compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7 - I managed to compile with some difficulties (to resolve I copied used driver-select from 2.6.32) so in final compilation of ath9k was successful but I got into the same problem: "IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response" So does not look good for me. If anybody wants me to try any other kernel and/or wireless or hostapd version please let me know.
Just to confirm my findings: System: Intel Atom 330 Distribution: Fedora 12 "off the shelf" plus all updates. Kernel: kernel-2.6.32.7-37.fc12.x86_64 (from updates-testing repo) Application: hostapd-0.6.9-7.fc12.x86_64 19:36:37 up 4 days, 3:55, 1 user, load average: 0.01, 0.02, 0.03 Over 4 days since I rebooted on that kernel, things are working perfectly. -G

Here is my update: I tried to run below kernels with hostapd 0.7.1 and my ath9k card: - kernel-PAE-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686 - not working - kernel-2.6.31.12-174.2.19.fc12.i686 - not working - kernel-2.6.31.12-174.2.19.fc12.i686 with ath9k compiled from compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7 - working for couple of minutes, then I get lot of these: Feb 17 23:13:09 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: authenticated Feb 17 23:13:09 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: associated (aid 2) Feb 17 23:13:12 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to local deauth request Feb 17 23:13:12 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: authenticated Feb 17 23:13:12 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: associated (aid 2) Feb 17 23:13:15 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to local deauth request In final I tried: - kernel-2.6.32.8-58.fc12.i686 (non-PAE) which I downloaded directly from koji - seems to be working fine (even without extra compilation from linux wireless) Please note I have to use non-PAE kernel as PAE kernels seem to have a bug affecting VIA padlock modules - I will report it in separate ticket. So I will try to use the latest kernel and I let you know if there is any additional problem affecting hostapd or ath9k.
Any update on this? I appear to be running into this same issue with 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.x86_64
I'm still getting a crash with hostapd and ath9k. I've tried a bunch of different combinations of kernel and hostapd. I've tried both PAE and Non PAE kernels with the same results.

Comment 16 seems to be a duplicate of bug 587727 -- please pursue that issue there (including testing kernel-2.6.32.12-115.fc12)...thanks! Given that other positive feedback, I'm closing this bug as CURRENTRELEASE.
