Sorry. First time I send a bug. I'm not a programmer.

I've compiled with 1.100 and 1.101 revisions

1.100:

following messages appears at startup:

athn0: could not wakeup chip
athn0: unable to reset hardware; reset status 60
ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: operation timed out

But however wifi works ok. I can successfy navigate on internet.

No "athn0: device timeout" shown at system console.


1.101

It is the first revision in which the wifi fails. I Cannot ping. I Cannot navigate.

messages at startup:

athn0: could not wakeup chip
athn0: unable to reset hardware; reset status 60
ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: operation timed out

And message at system console every few seconds:

athn0: device timeout


I hope this is the information you need. In case it is not, please, let me know.

(which works fine in my laptop):

Revision 1.99
Branch: MAIN
CVS Tags: OPENBSD_6_4_BASE, OPENBSD_6_4

Then I built the kernel and everything went well.

I only tried these two revisions. I did not check if any other previous
revision to 1.102 (and subsequent to 1.99) fix the problem also.

The reason which led me to 1.99 revision was some internet search on forums. Somebody had a similar trouble with athn driver. She said the 6.4 release worked and 6.5 release failed. So I went straight to revision tagged with
OPENBSD_6_4 in CVS.

I can try compiling and testing any other file revision in my laptop if you think this can help you to narrow down the problem. Just tell me which one.

Thanks a lot for paying attention to this.

          I fixed the problem by means of compiling the kernel, but replacing first athn.c file from OpenBSD 6.5 release for the older one in OpenBSD 6.4
release.
      The problem disappears completeley and Wifi works properly.
      So I suppose the bug must be in the difference between these two
versions of athn.c
Can you please find out which exact CVS commit to this file broke your device?
