I think I can reproduce this bug now on my NUC box by disabling vt-d in the BIOS, but I'm not sure yet if it really is the same problem or not. I included some debug messages to this ath11k patch: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/1605121102-14352-1-git-send-email-kv...@codeaurora.org/ Pavel, can you test with that patch on v5.10-rc2 and provide the ath11k log messages? Preferably both before and after reverting commit 7fef431be9c9. Do note that I'm not expecting the debug patch to fix anything, in your case it's just for providing more debug info. With vt-d disabled on v5.10-rc2 before the revert I see: ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: WARNING: ath11k PCI support is experimental! ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: BAR 0: assigned [mem 0xdb000000-0xdbffffff 64bit] ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: MSI vectors: 1 NET: Registered protocol family 42 mhi 0000:06:00.0: Requested to power ON mhi 0000:06:00.0: Power on setup success ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: Respond mem req failed, result: 1, err: 0 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: qmi failed to respond fw mem req:-22 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[0] 0x1580000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[1] 0x1600000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[2] 0x1680000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[3] 0x1700000 294912 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[4] 0x1780000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[5] 0x1800000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[6] 0x1880000 458752 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[7] 0x1520000 131072 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[8] 0x1900000 524288 4 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[9] 0x1980000 360448 4 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[10] 0x1540000 16384 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: qmi failed memory request, err = -110 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: qmi failed to respond fw mem req:-110 With vt-d disabled on v5.10-rc2 and reverting commit 7fef431be9c9 I see: ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: WARNING: ath11k PCI support is experimental! ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: BAR 0: assigned [mem 0xdb000000-0xdbffffff 64bit] ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: MSI vectors: 1 mhi 0000:06:00.0: Requested to power ON mhi 0000:06:00.0: Power on setup success ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: Respond mem req failed, result: 1, err: 0 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: qmi failed to respond fw mem req:-22 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[0] 0x76300000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[1] 0x76380000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[2] 0x76a00000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[3] 0x76a80000 294912 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[4] 0x76b00000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[5] 0x76b80000 524288 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[6] 0x76400000 458752 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[7] 0x761a0000 131072 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[8] 0x76480000 524288 4 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[9] 0x76500000 360448 4 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: req mem_seg[10] 0x76580000 16384 1 ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: chip_id 0x0 chip_family 0xb board_id 0xff soc_id 0xffffffff ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: fw_version 0x101c06cc fw_build_timestamp 2020-06-24 19:50 fw_build_id -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
