Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: prevent watchdog from interfering with scanning and 
connecting

Watchdog in brcmfmac driver may make WiFi chip enter sleep mode
before completion of scanning or connecting.

This will lead to scanning or connecting failure.

Increasing temporarily idle-time threshold during scanning or
connecting can ensure scanning or connecting success without
watchdog interference.
Are you sure you are not having runtime PM enabled. That could be your problem 
as the host controller code disables sdio irqs. Please see this thread [1]. For 
our device runtime pm should not be enabled, but I am not sure if that is taken 
into account in mmc_attach_sdio() (see code below).
I have tried brcmfmac driver with "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME is not set", and scanning 
and connecting  always succeeded. This means that CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME should not be set if 
we use SDIO WiFi device driven by brcmfmac driver, right?
Depends which kernel you are using. In 3.16-rc1 the sdio interrupt issue has 
been fixed so you should be fine to use CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME. Here is the commit

Hi, Arend

I investigated this issue, and its root cause is still that sdio controller 
can't receive interrupts from WiFi chip on sdio bus when sdio controller is in 
runtime suspend status. I am running 3.16-rc5 linux kernel on ASUS T100TA 
tablet, and using sdhci-acpi driver.

Thanks, Zhonghui

Given that the patches Russell made were covering sdhci (as far as I recall) your issue may be specific to the sdhci-acpi driver. In sdhci_acpi_probe() it is enabled by use_runtime_pm field in private data:

c->use_runtime_pm = sdhci_acpi_flag(c, SDHCI_ACPI_RUNTIME_PM);

Regards,
Arend

Thanks,
Zhonghui
Any clues or comments to the following issue?
I run 3.16-rc4 and 3.16-rc5 kernel with CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME set, the issue still 
exists as follows:

1 step: modprobe brcmfmac
2 step: iwlist wlan1 scan         get scanning result successfully.
3 step: wait a while, no any operation
4 step: iwlist wlan1 scan         scanning timeout, can't get scanning result.


Thanks,
Zhonghui
