Hi Alexander, Thanks for the report, but it feels more like a driver bug. I'll re-assign this to the driver category and see if they know what happened. Hello Aaron, part of this can indeed be a qcserial driver bug, however the "device doesn't reattach after unrfkilling" part looks more like a sony-laptop ACPI-related bug. So at least partially this is not Greg's territory.

So at least partially this is not Greg's territory. Thanks for the clarification. Do you mean the acpi driver located here: drivers/platform/x86/sony-laptop.c? Yes, I mean the driver compiled from drivers/platform/x86/sony-laptop.c into sony-laptop.ko. (In reply to comment #4) > Yes, I mean the driver compiled from drivers/platform/x86/sony-laptop.c into > sony-laptop.ko. OK, thanks, that one belongs to platform/x86 driver. Which do you think is the fundamental problem here? the rfkill part or usb part? If you want to solve the rfkill problem, I can help to re-assign to drivers/platform-x86 category, thanks. I am not convinced that a USB-related bug exists at all (but I can be wrong). Look - the modem responds to the AT commands as it should, it just looks like some evil guy has cut off the antenna. So, if this looks sensible to you, please reassign to drivers/platform-x86. We can always reassign back to USB later if platform guys say so.

OK, I'll re-assign to platform driver, sorry for the noise. Clarification of the report, just in case:
1. After booting with RF not killed, the modem is on the USB bus, responds to AT commands, but does not detect cellular network ("NO CARRIER") => may be USB or sony-laptop bug, my completely-unfounded gut feeling says sony-laptop.
2. After rfkilling the modem, it disappears from the USB bus => correct, same as bluetooth.
3. After unrfkilling the modem, it doesn't reappear on the USB bus => definitely sony-laptop bug.
4. After suspending and resuming the laptop, the modem appears on the bus and sees the cellular network => may be useful information, that's also why acpidump output is attached.
With linux-3.9-rc5 the bug is no longer reproducible. The modem works correctly after powering the laptop off and then on, after suspending/resuming, and after rfkilling/unrfkilling. Actually this is an exact duplicate of bug #47751. Sorry! |

The last line is a 3g modem, visible as /dev/ttyUSB{0,1,2} (handled by the qcserial driver).
