[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-07-19 Thread Herton R. Krzesinski
This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel for natty in -proposed
solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
natty' to 'verification-done-natty'.

If verification is not done by one week from today, this fix will be
dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-07-19 Thread Seth Forshee
Mauricio: The bug should be fixed in 2.6.38-10.46. Please go ahead and
test the actual proposed release to verify this. The following commands
should install that kernel over what you have now since you already have
proposed enabled:

  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.38-10 linux-headers-2.6.38-10-generic 
linux-image-2.6.38-10-generic

If that doesn't work then run 'apt-get install --reinstall' for the same
packages.

2011-07-14 Thread Seth Forshee
Mauricio, I just double-checked and all the patches should be in 3.0.0-5
place except the wlan hotkey patch, so it's expected that the wlan
hotkey won't work. So you're saying that if you remove the soft block
from acer-wireless it comes back immediately? If that's true you can't
really tell if the touchpad hotkey affects wirless, since it's never
gets unblocked anyway, right?

I'll move the status back to fix committed since the hotkey patch is
missing. Please clarify exactly what it is you're seeing with 3.0.0-5.

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-07-07 Thread Seth Forshee
** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification
+ 
+ Impact: The wlan on the Acer Aspire 1830 always has a soft block applied
+ due to incorrect values read from the BIOS on periodic updates.
+ 
+ Fix: Backport patch that makes this model use WMI events to update
+ rfkill states instead of periodic polling. Data in WMI events accurately
+ reflects the status of the blocks. The backport results in a wlan soft
+ block when pressing the touchpad hotkey, so also include a fix to only
+ update rfkill states when wireless hotkeys are pressed as well as a
+ trivial patch to support the wlan hotkey on this model.
+ 
+ Test case: Verify that wlan soft block can be removed, wlan hotkey
+ functions, and touchpad hotkey does not affect wlan on the affected
+ model. Tested on LP #771758.
+ 
+ ---
+ 
  On my Acer Aspire 1830-3595 I have the following situation:
  after installing natty wifi won't work, the wifi is soft block when checking 
with rfkill
  the solution was blacklisting acer-wmi module

2011-07-01 Thread Seth Forshee
@Mauricio: Thanks for the files; they were informative but unfortunately
didn't lead to a fix for reading the wlan state.

It looks like one of the patches isn't needed for your problems, so I
have one final kernel to test with that patch removed. If everything
works fine in this one I'll get the changes in for SRU.

the touchpad hotkey. I have a fix, but I'm inquiring with the driver
maintainer on some details to ensure things continue to work correctly
for other machines.

Could you also collect the data requested in comment #48 when you get a

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-06-14 Thread Seth Forshee
I also just became aware of a tool that could help us fix the problem
reading wlan state on your machine rather than just avoiding it. Please
download the acer_ec.pl script from:

http://code.google.com/p/aceracpi/wiki/EmbeddedController

Then please execute the following sequences. Note that the page says
that there is a possibility that the script could lock up your machine,
so it's best to run it with all applications closed, etc.

Sequence #1:
  1. Start with a fresh boot (presumably wifi is enabled and working)
  2. Run 'perl acer_ec.pl regs  wlan-pre-rfkill'
  3. Run 'rfkill block n', whiere n is the index for the acer-wireless 
switch
  4. Run 'perl acer_ec.pl regs  wlan-post-rfkill'
  5. Repeat 2-4 above for the acer-threeg switch, changing the output filenames 
accordingly

Sequence #2:
  1. Start with a fresh boot (presumably wifi is enabled and working)
  2. Run 'sudo rmmod acer-wmi'
  3. Run 'perl acer_ec.pl regs  wlan-pre-hotkey'
  4. Press the wlan hotkey
  5. Run 'perl acer_ec.pl regs  wlan-post-hotkey'

Please attach all of the output files.

Thanks for all the testing! We should be just about done.

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-06-13 Thread Seth Forshee
I think I see what's going on with the touchpad hotkey, but I need some
more information to implement a fix for it. I've uploaded a new build,
please install it and generate the wlan-disabled-by-touchpad-hotkey
scenario, and give me the dmesg output. What I especially need are the
messages that start with SAF. If you can annotate the log with what
key was pressed for each batch of SAF messages, that would be even
better (you can monitor the dmesg output in real time by running 'tail
-f /var/log/kern.log'). Thanks!

So the hotkey for wifi is working all the other keys seems to be working the 
only details is
the [F7] touch pad enable/disable , after disabling , the touchpad gets 
disabled 
when you enable the wifi gets disabled , not sure why.
Attaching the dmesg.

The wifi key is working perfectly

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-06-09 Thread Seth Forshee
It looks like your machine is emitting a different code for the wlan key
than what acer-wmi currently supports, and it also looks like the key
doesn't actually change the state in the bios. I've got one more build,
and this one really should get the wlan hotkey working.

http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp771758/linux-2.6.38-10.44~lp771758v201106091502/

Also test with this build to see if you have any other hotkeys that
aren't working -- since we're fixing the wlan key we might as well fix
them all :). If any aren't working, run the command
'/lib/udev/findkeyboards'. You should see a line that looks like Acer
WMI hotkeys: input/event?. Now run 'sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i
input/event?', where input/event? matches the output from the previous
command. Then press the hotkey and you will probably get some output. If
so note the output along with the hotkey function here. If not you can
also try the keymap command with the AT keyboard input device and see
if it outputs anything. Be sure to note whether each key is coming in on
the Acer WMI or AT keyboard device.

If you don't get any output from keymap, next run 'tail -f
/var/log/kern.log' and then press your hotkey. If you get a Unknown key
number message when you press the key, note that here along with the
key function. If you don't then you've probably hit a hotkey that the
driver is intentionally ignoring (there are some of these, and I'm not
sure why the driver ignores them).

Thanks!

I have yet another build for testing. This one has some more changes
that may help with your hotkey, and if it doesn't it also enables some
extra debugging to help diagnose. You can get it at:

Out of curiosity, does your machine have 3G?

I'm going to drop that patch (for now) since it didn't help. I've built
a new kernel for you to test that should disable the polling that's
causing the rfkill state to be reset, and it might even get your wifi
hotkey working. You can get it here:

I have pressed the [F7] (tocuhpad) , disabled touch pad, pressed again
re-enabled , after those two steps the wifi gets off like I had pressed
the wifi hot key, then pressing [F3] will bring back the wifi as the

@Mauricio, the test kernel I mentioned didn't pan out because the quirks
I was looking at wouldn't apply to your machine. I did find an upstream
patch however that would change the way acer-wmi interacts with the bios
for your machine, and I think it's worth a try to see whether or not
this helps with your problem. A test build is available at:

http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp771758/linux-2.6.38-10.44~lp771758v201106061621/

Please let me know whether or not this help with your problem. Thanks!

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-06-03 Thread Seth Forshee
Thanks Mauricio.

Something is apparently going wrong in the interaction with the bios.
acer-wmi calls into the bios to set the rfkill state, but it's always
reading back that wifi is disabled. acer-wmi also has a periodic event
to read back the state from the bios and set its own rfkill state based
on that (I'm not sure why, but I'm guessing there must be some hardware
for which this is necessary to determine if wifi has been disabled by
either a hotkey or switch). So what happens is that your wifi is
unblocked briefly (less than one second) until the next time acer-wmi
updates its soft-block state from the bios, which matches the behavior
described in comment #5. I'm not sure if it's the setting or the reading
of the wifi state, or both, that's going wrong. I need to do some more
investigation.

Out of curiosity, what happens if you run 'rfkill block 3' (assuming
that 3 is always the index assigned to acer-wireless in 'rfkill list',
which is probably worth checking first)?

Your wifi hotkey issue should be an easy fix, but it won't matter until
the soft-block problem gets fixed.

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-06-03 Thread Seth Forshee
Mauricio, one other thing I'd like you to test. Please try using the
rfkill command to block the acer-threeg device and then check to see if
the soft-block state changes appropriately. Follow this with an unblock
and check the state again. Also, after doing the test of enabling the
soft-block on the acer-wireless device, please capture dmesg and attach
it along with the 'rfkill list' output. Please also use the test kernel
I provided earlier when doing this test.

My suspicion after looking at the DSDT is that the flag that gets read
back for the wifi status isn't getting updated when the wifi status is
changed, but it's impossible to tell without some trial-and-error
testing. If this is the case we may need to add some kind of quirk to
the driver to indicate that the wifi status reported by the bios is
unreliable.

2011-06-03 Thread Seth Forshee
Heh, I guess you posted your information while I was typing my request
:) I didn't see your post until after I posted mine.

It looks like the 3g state may actually be getting set correctly. Just
to verify, please run the following:

  rfkill block 4
  rfkill list
  rfkill unblock 4
  rfkill list

Wait a few seconds between the block/unblock commands and the list
commands. I suspect you'll see that the 3g soft-block appropriately
tracks the rfkill commands.

I'll also have a new kernel shortly to let us test a couple of existing
quirks related to reading the wifi state, so we can see if either of
those apply to your machine.

2011-06-02 Thread Seth Forshee
Mauricio, yours really does appear to be a different issue. Do you have
a hotkey for wifi on your machine? Does it have any effect on the rfkill
state?

I built a test kernel with some additional logging. Please install this
kernel, reboot, and run 'rfkill unblock all' several times (space them
out by at least 30 seconds, not one right after another). Then collect
the output of dmesg and attach it here. The kernel is available at:

http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp771758/linux-2.6.38-9.43~lp771758v201106021723/

Please also run the command 'sudo fwts --disassemble-aml' (you will
probably need to install the fwts package) and attach the *.dsl files it
generates here as well.

Thanks!

There's an acer_wmi bug fix in the kernel currently in natty-proposed
that fixes some problems with rfkill state. It should get released soon,
but if anyone wants to test it you can follow the instructions here to
enable proposed updates.

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed

I'd suggest that you enable the proposed repository and select only the
linux-image and linux-headers packages to be updated, then disable
proposed updates after updating those packages.

[Bug 771758] Re: acer-wmi prevents wifi (bcmwl/brcm80211) from working

2011-05-18 Thread Ross Patterson
I have tried pretty much all combinations of the brcm80211, wl, and
acer_wmi modules on my Lenovo IdeaPad U160 and here's what I've found.
The brcm80211 module/driver doesn't work under any conditions.

If I boot normally, with the acer_wmi and wl modules loaded
automatically, then wifi doesn't work because of rfkill but I can't
unblock them until I sudo modprobe -r acer_wmi.  Then wifi works fine.
If I blacklist acer_wmi, wifi doesn't work again because of rfkill, but
this time I can't unblock it until I sudo modprobe acer_wmi and then
remove it again with sudo modprobe -r acer_wmi.

So it seems like the acer_wmi module is doing some sort of necessary
initialization without which the wl module and rfkill can't work.  Hope
that helps track down the real bug.

In the meantime, what's the right way to do this dance of loading and
unloading acer_wmi automatically at startup?

Answering my own question, I fixed the problem on my U160 by abusing
/etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-common.conf.  I replaced:

install wl /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install wl $CMDLINE_OPTS

with:

softdep wl pre: acer_wmi
install wl /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install wl $CMDLINE_OPTS  rflist 
unblock all
install acer_wmi /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install acer_wmi $CMDLINE_OPTS  
/sbin/modprobe -r acer_wmi

Lenovo Ideapad U550: wireless was softblocked by acer_wmi. sudo rmmod acer_wmi 
and adding it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf fixed the issue. However, after 
working for a week (was there a kernel update in proposed?) wireless died 
again, now with hardblocked state.
Following steps fixed this:
1) removing acer_wmi form /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
2) rebooting
3) rfkill unblock all
4) sudo rmmod acer_wmi

2011-05-05 Thread Muhammad Ibraheem
I am using HP 520 and facing the same problem. I tried setting the itnerface 
manually up by sudo ifconfig wlan0 up. This turned wifi ON and the wifi switch 
turned blue as it usually does! but still network manager was showing wifi 
disabled by hardware switch. I tried wifi radar (available in package manager) 
and I was able to see available wifi networks in range. I selected one and got 
connected. It shows that wifi drivers are installed and working properly but 
the wifi switch is not turing wifi up! I tried to turn wifi off by pressing the 
switch and it turned off!
so there is some bug within the network-manager application and the wifi 
hardware switch!

I also checked from rfkill list when I press the wifi switch once, it
shows me

0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
1: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
When I press the switch again, it show following:

0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
1: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no


Please let me know  if any more information is required on it!

Same problem. Wireless appears soft-blocked, 'rfkill unblock all'
actually unblocks the wireless but event is generated which turns the
soft-block back on. Blacklisting acer-wmi solved the problem. On a
Lenovo ideapad U550 with Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN

Blacklisting acer_wmi also breaks the bluetooth.

It appears to be a very common issue that acer-wmi blocks wifi (Broadcom
and Atheros at least). Should this be merged with similar reports such
as bug #668234?
