I have been struggling to send offchannels mgmt frames since a while, as I was always getting: [18099.253732] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e3780 [18102.293686] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e3780 [18105.333653] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e3780 [18108.373712] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e3780 [18111.413687] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e36c0 [18114.453726] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e3f00 [18117.493773] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e36c0 [18120.533631] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: timed out waiting for offchannel skb cf0e3f00 After digging through the ath10k patchwork I have found this patch which touches exactly the code I was trying to debug. After applying this set of changes, I can confirm that sending offchannel frames works again like a charm. I have tested only one fw though: ver 10.4-3.5.3-00057. It's a bummer that this trivial but critical patch is not yet merged upstream :-( Tested-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio.quartu...@kaiwoo.ai> -- Antonio Quartulli Kaiwoo.ai
