Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in linux-oem package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux source package in Bionic: New Status in linux-oem source package in Bionic: Invalid Bug description: SRU Justification: ------------------ Impact: ------- Observed firmware assert(non responsive state) just 2 min after connection. Test case: ---------- 1) Power up the device, Redpine modules are loaded by default, Nmcli initiates the connection and device starts background scan after connection. After 2-3 min issue will be replicated. Result: ------- Observed firmware assert while performing background scan. Root cause analysis: -------------------- There is a redundant null check for ssid info while preparing probe request in background scan case, which blocks the probe request pkt length update, leads to assert no-71(if probe-req-length is 0 or greater the max probe length 120) in firmware. Fix: ---- Removed the redundant null check. Regression Potential: --------------------- This is observed just 2 min after connection, fixed and checked the driver stability. Every thing ran smooth.
