 I haven't confirmed this bug. I'm copying from http://trac.shr-
 project.org/trac/ticket/418 .

 With the SHR-testing from 04/16 and the 2.6.29 kernel wireless is not
 working. Using iwlist eth0 scan only works some of the times but no matter
 what eth0 is not able to connect with any AP even when using tools such as
 Mofi and wpa_supplicant. The low level tools like iwconfig fails to
 connect. For more information on this see the thread on the community
 mailing list
 http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2009-April/046614.html. It
 also seems that the only way to get wireless to work is to go back to the
 2.6.28 kernel, but makes the rest of the phone broken as found here

 I see similar behavior in Koolu Android beta 6 with kernel 2.6.29-rc3.

Comment(by lindi):

 Which git revision does that have? wifi works here just fine with andy-
 tracking 9ecc089861ab238e. (I am not using any encryption.)

Comment(by werner):

 Interesting. I also see this with
 9029dff1f370018665a6e2999632a34fd0518f4d,
 gta02_moredrivers_defconfig, and my minimal rootfs built in February. So
 user space is pretty much exonerated.

 My session went as follows:
 - booted and everything looked fine
 - iwlist scan and iwconfig essid both worked
 - association with an unencrypted AP succeeded. DHCP failed, but that
 appears
   to be a problem of that AP. (My laptop couldn't DHCP either.)
 - when I looked again a few minutes later, iwlist scan said "Interface
 doesn't
   support scanning." and iwconfig shows a "blank" interface and an attempt
 to
   set the ESSID yields "SET failed on device eth0 ; Input/output error."
 - unbind/bind did not solve the problem (!)

 What's interesting is that unbind/bind only went as far as
 mmc1: new SDIO card at address 0001
 and didn't print any of the AR6k-specific messages.

 - Werner

Comment(by nicola.mfb):

 Here my test cases:

 kernel git rev r81c61a7d1abb03aecd13f5395aba355e996a1641

 * startup shr-testing 22 april and wait until eth0 disappears from
 iwconfig/ifconfig
 * dbus call to change wifi policy to enabled

 first issue: no wpa_supplicant is started (it's configured in
 /etc/network/interfaces), it seems as interfaces comes up so
 /etc/udev/scripts/network.sh ignores it and does not launch ifup, here a
 workaround is simple, but should be investigated.

 * iwconfig eth0 shows:
 {{{
 eth0      AR6000 802.11g  ESSID:""
           Mode:Managed  Bit Rate=1 Mb/s   Tx-Power=0 dBm   Sensitivity=0/3
           Retry:on
           Encryption key:off
           Power Management:on
           Link Quality:0/94  Signal level:-95 dBm  Noise level:-96 dBm
           Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
           Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0
 }}}

 * ifconfig eth0 down
 * iwconfig now show:
 {{{
 eth0      AR6000 802.11g  ESSID:""
           Mode:Managed  Bit Rate=1 Mb/s   Sensitivity=0
           Encryption key:off
           Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0
           Rx invalid nwid:0  invalid crypt:0  invalid misc:0

 }}}

 * dbus call to set wifi policy to auto
 * framworkd says:
 {{{
 2009.04.30 01:21:27.646 frameworkd.resource  INFO     setting resource
 status for WiFi from enabled to disabling
 2009.04.30 01:21:27.924 frameworkd.resource  INFO     setting resource
 status for WiFi from disabling to disabled
 2009.04.30 01:21:27.971 ousaged              INFO     Disabled WiFi in 0.4
 seconds
 2009.04.30 01:21:31.7 odeviced.powercontrol WARNING  odeviced.powercontrol
 expected a power change for WiFi to False which didn't happen
 }}}

 At this point wifi is not more usable for me.

Comment(by nicola.mfb):

 I want to add that if I launch wpa_supplicant and kill it I got the same
 result, I suppose at exit it put down the interface?

 If I shutdown the interface before killing wpa_supplicant works nice and I
 can connect/reconnect to my AP without apparently problems.
