I think this is a known bug. Sometimes I can work for hours until the problem occurs, somtimes it happens faster ~ 15 Minutes. It starts with "Microcode SW error detected." and goes on with a never ending device restart loop (syslog grows a couple of MB per minute). Does anyone know a workaround for this? Disabling ASPM doesn't work. Thanks a lot! - Intel 7260 Wireless - Ubuntu 13.10 - Mainline Kernel 3.13.0-999-generic from Tuesday (25.11.)

Please enable tracing in iwlwifi and record the flow with trace-cmd. I can help if needed. You are not the first to report this. I have asked our testing teams to try to reproduce but without success. On what channel is your AP operating? Can you please send the output of: * lspci -xxx * iw list tracing would really help here - I don't see how I can debug that without this. Thanks!
Hi Emmanuel, thanks for your help! Things changed a bit. I've reverted my changes (ASPM is on - see lspcivvv.txt and power management is on - see iwconfigwlan0.txt) and installed the latest kernel 3.13.0-031300rc2-generic. (I've seen that there is a new version of iwlwifi.ko included...) Please find attached: lspcixxx.txt (lspci -xxx) iwlist.txt (iw list) lspcivvv.txt (lspci -vvv) I'm trying to send you a tracefile and a current syslog as soon as possible. Infos about my AP: FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7050, Firmware-Version 14.04.33 channel 6 mode 802.11g WPA2 (CCMP)
Created attachment 117011 [details] lspci -xxx
Created attachment 117021 [details] iw list
Created attachment 117031 [details] lspci -vvv
Created attachment 117041 [details] iwconfig wlan0
Thanks for all this. BTW - ASPM is disabled in your lspci -vvv attached. What changes have you done? When you open a bug, please make sure you have a native setups without tweaks. Does the bug still occur after your changes?
Created attachment 117181 [details] syslog
My tweaks were: setpci -s 00:1c.0 0x50.W=0x040 iwconfig wlan0 power off But they had no effect. (I thought the problem is caused by power saving.) Please find attached my tracefile: https://www.dropbox.com/s/asvuhxy3f8mzf06/trace.dat.tar.bz2 (trace-cmd record -e mac80211 -e iwlwifi -e iwlwifi_dbg)
And some additional comments: When I tried to capture the trace file, I switched on my computer and didn't use it for a couple of hours - nothing happened. The problem only occurs when I'm constantly using my wifi connection.
I haven't looked at your trace yet. But I need a trace *when the bug reproduces*. The bug is: AVDANCE_SYSASSERT
The trace-cmd was running in the background while the error occurred. Isn't that enough? If not, can you tell me what to do?
thanks - sorry - I missed your comment and the link to your trace output. This is tremendously helpful. Unfortunately, I am afraid I'll have to ask you to rerun this with an instrumented firmware I will send to you tomorrow. This is most likely a firmware bug. Thanks for your cooperation!
No problem, you're welcome.
bug root caused. Will be fixed by next version of the firmware.
*** Bug 63091 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
firmware with the fix is available here: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/egrumbach/linux-firmware.git/plain/iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode I'll send the pull request as soon as you will have confirmed that it fixes the issue you are facing.
The new release fixes the bug. Thanks a lot!
