Is this still reproducable? Created attachment 114101 [details]
output from dmesg. At about 2190 the device overheats, at around 2286 I disconnected the device, at 2292 I connected it again.
Yes, bug still present on 3.11.7 kernel (Fedora 20 Alpha/Beta).

scan.diff
can you please do some testing for me.
I have same adapter, but i can't reproduce this issue. Not sure that temperature triggering it. Even with 70C this adapter working for me.
I assume it can be combination of different bugs.
One of them is usb. Channel scan will do intensive IO over usb. On some controllers channel switch will take 1 second. It mean, that complete channel scan can take 30 seconds. The down/up speed will dramatically drop too.
Attached patch will do some printks for scan sequence. Please, provide complete dmesg. Every thing what happened before 2190 is interesting too.
Second part of bug can be your AP. I would like to know as match as possible about it: model, firmware. Output of "iw dev wlan0 scan dump"

logging output for described problem (out of SW-IOMMU space) (VERY big file)
In some rare cases I get this error message:
Nov 25 21:40:33 chstpc-2 kernel: DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 16 bytes at device 0000:00:1d.0
(same with 20 instead of 16 bytes) printed several thousand times per second to system log. Got a 127MB (!) log file from just about 7 minutes…

dmesg from second USB root hub
I usually have few USB devices connected (keyboard, mouse, WLAN stick). This bug occurs for both of my USB root hubs (physically distinct root hubs). This log file is from the second USB root hub.

What I've tried to compile/run the ath9k module with printk output
I tried to compile that module but got some problems (mailed to fedora-kernel list since I think it's related to Fedora-specific code). Don't know what I've done wrong.
Your access point is DIR-615 H1? http://wikidevi.com/wiki/D-Link_DIR-615_rev_H1 what is you firmware version? Is it original d-link or openwrt FW? Original DIR-615, Hardware: Hx, Firmware: 8.03. No OpenWRT or something else, just original D-Link firmware. Ok, sorry. Firmware says it is Hardware revision Hx. According to the firmware itself 8.03 is the latest version but D-Link website says 8.05b05 is the latest version: http://www.dlink.com/de/de/support/product/dir-615-wireless-n-300-router?revision=de_revh Seems like H1 is the only Hx hardware revision. Thank you for info, i found same router and now i'm able to reproduce this issue. It is atho9k-htc-firmware related problem, so it will take some time. Just a tip: use opewrt or replace this router... it is really bad. Ok, were gonna replace it in 1…3 months. Thanks for your help! Created attachment 118281 [details]
systemd journal from suspend+freeze problem
(Don't know if that helps)
Today I suspended my PC with this device attached. The connection dropped (freezed?) some seconds before I suspended my PC. Resuming (wake-up from suspend) took several seconds (30?; normally less than 5 on the same hardware/software) with the PC being unresponsive. I only got a black screen with a mouse cursor (the last frame I see before suspending). Mouse and keyboard input (including switching to tty) didn't work. According to the attached logs device and kernel failed to establish a connection.
I've seen this several times before, it seems to happen only under some circumstances when the connection dropped right before I suspend my PC.

htc_7010.fw
Hi,
can you please test this firmware? I add one workaround to reset usb interface if firmware crashed. This should reinit driver.
I'm still not able to find reason for firmware crash. But for now, it is better then nothing.

dmesg with new firmware
Thanks.
When the connection drops it still drops until I disconnect and reconnect the USB device manually. The USB device still gets warm when dropping connection (don't know whether heat causes drop or vice versa).
It looks like the new firmware causes to try reconnecting (in a loop) until it worked. This seems to have changed.
According to my measurement, hottest is the WiFi chip and it is about 60C. It is not too hot. On my tests not the heat cause FW panic, instead it is bad connection or concurrent download. It can run one day with 15MB/s without any problems, but if there is one more station running with netperf, then it will take max one hour to reproduce this crash. If you use new firmware and still need to unplug usb adapter, then you have probably other issue. Really looks like I've a different issue since it sometimes takes just 1 or 2 minutes to make the firmware crash. Created attachment 122441 [details]
dmesg with 3.12.6-300 kernel with new router (AVM Fritz!Box 7360)
I'm still getting connection drops even with a new (better) router (AVM Fritz!Box 7360).
One user reported on launchpad that, setting nohwcrypt and reducing tx power solve his problems. Can you please run some longterm tests to check if only one of this options will do the trick? Hi Yeah, I read that on http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/12-04-ath9k-htc-tp-link-tl-wn821n-v3-802-11n-3/?highlight=ath9k#post-6238742 (german ubuntu forum) some time ago. It didn't fix the problem. But both made the problem less worse. Since I got the new router connection drops only when using >2MB/s for several minutes. btw: I ran into some kernel bug yesterday, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=990955 for details. Arr... i already heard about this bug. If you use self compiled kernel please try this workaround: diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_m index 228549a..12a9e10 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c @@ -1314,6 +1314,7 @@ static void ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update(struct ieee80211_hw *hw, struct ath9k_htc_priv *priv = hw->priv; struct ath_common *common = ath9k_hw_common(priv->ah); struct ath9k_htc_target_rate trate; +return; mutex_lock(&priv->mutex); ath9k_htc_ps_wakeup(priv); If it will fix it for you, it will be good to continue on initial bug. The note about >2MB/s is interesting. Can you force rate controller to trigger this bug? Created attachment 123801 [details]
fw panic report
This patch will provide us some information if FW crashed.
I'm seeing this problem too with Ubuntu Trusty (TL-WN821N v3). What I've found is that crash is very frequent if I enable wireless N on my router (FRITZ!Box 7240), but rather infrequent if I disable it. Running VNC or X over my connection seems a good way to break things. If I can, I'll try to include this patch in my kernel...

dmesg output on 3.16.0-28-generic connected to Netgear WNDR3400
This device is still problematic with Ubuntu 14.04 (kernel 3.16.0-28-generic x86_64). I will attach my entire dmesg output, but here is the debug print statement:
...
[ 225.195225] usb 2-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci

After this, the only thing that will bring back the device is restarting the whole machine. I have had this happen while just browsing the internet, not downloading anything particularly substantial. The device runs very hot.
The workaround patch is out of date and rejected by the `patch` utility.
You are using really old FW. Latest FW should reset device if panic will happen. https://github.com/olerem/ath9k-htc-firmware-blob This bug is still present in 3.19.2 kernel, using 1.4 firmware. Downloading a big file or using a torrent client = wifi dies, and I have to replug the device. Reducing txpower doesn´t help here.

The fact that there is no error message from FW, i would assume FW didn't detected any error, even watchdog didn't triggered restart. I don't know what exactly happened. And without access to this HW, i wont be able to find it out. @agapito Beside, one of dmesg provided here do include "firmware panic!" message. This means, you have completely different bug. @Oleksij Rempel: Should I send you my device? I don't need it any more since It connection drops all the time and I installed an ethernet cable instead. Just send your postal address to my email address. Is the same bug. I have the same device (TP-Link TL-WN821N v3 ) and have the same symptoms of the first message. I had firmware panics with the older firmware (1.3) I don´t know if is a firmware or a driver problem, but this bug is still present. I put firmware 1.3 again and...

[ 392.722319] ath: phy0: Unable to remove station entry for: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX @agapito, since it is hard from you to get some information and i have no magic power, i'll describe you the problem: - ar7010 + *, is a SoC (CPU) with PCIe bridge. Some times FW will get error on PCIe access. - FW 1.3 triggered error in this case, send panic notification to the host and waited for new firmware - FW 1.4 triggered error, send panic notification and reseted device. In this way, recovery time for this error was reduced in FW 1.4. In my test PC it need less then 10 seconds to come back. Now to the next problem. Some usb host controllers are not lucky about this kind of reset. At least about reset on firmware load to update usb settings (this is why we are not doing this kind of resetes). I have small collection of usb controllers, with one problematic controller. On this controller didn't worked reset on FW load, but worked reset on error. I'm sure other controllers may/will have different issues, this is why i usually need complete dmesg to get more info about complete system. Some of bugs which i have seen, was reproduced only on AMD SB700/SB800/Hudson-2/3 usb controller. Some are specific to modifications of ar7010 board design. @all can you please test latest firmware form here: https://github.com/olerem/ath9k-htc-firmware-blob i added short delay to interrupt handler of pci bus. Currently this FW passed 3 hours without triggering pci bug. Should the FW version still show 1.4 when loaded by kernel? yes It's hard to tell that I'm using the right firmware (I copied/overwrote in /lib/firmware, and did not find other htc_7010.fw). It looks like an improvement though, since the device now resets itself instead of just locking up and requiring powercycle, but this is still unusable.

Correct, on this system: Linux iqrouter 3.16.0-0.bpo.4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt4-3~bpo70+1 (2015-02-12) i686 GNU/Linux Which version are you using or would advise me to try with the new driver? Please, use self compiled kernel from source. read my previous comment. @Oleksij: My kernel is 3.19.3-1-ARCH. I will try wireless-drivers-next.git when those patches are included. Thanks for your work anyway. Do you refer to Comment 22? Is this hack still needed? Comment 44. No. Well, I meant by that comment, which version should I pull the wireless-drivers-next into. Anyway, I've used the latest linux-stable tag (4.0.0-rc5), pulled wireless-drivers-next and applied all your patches, and using the firmware from your github. Everything looks really great so far! I can't believe it is this stable now, really. I will report back after using it heavily for some time. Ok, first failure happened. Don't get me wrong, this is much better than before. It is still unusable because USB reset leaves the adapter uninitialized, so hostapd is then in an unusable state until it is manually restarted.
