Description Takashi Iwai 2020-06-15 11:19:28 UTC
We've got a few regression reports on 5.7.1 kernel that hangs up at boot, and it turned out to be a bug in iwlwifi driver.  It starts hitting WARNING below, and causes lot of other weird errors and hangs.

FWIW, 5.6.y kernel worked, and seems to be a regression in 5.7.x.

Comment 3 Takashi Iwai 2020-06-16 12:53:58 UTC
The patch in comment 2 was confirmed to fix the problem.

It's interesting that the problem surfaced on 5.7 at first although the problematic commit was already present in 5.5 (commit a9248de42464 "iwlwifi: dbg_ini: add TLV allocation new API support"), though.
