Arch Linux

Same or similar issue on iwlwifi AC 9560. Issue is not the kernel but afaict a faulty firmware introduced with package linux-firmware 20190628.70e4394-1 by Luca Coelho.

Workaround: Downgrade to linux-firmware 20190618.acb56f2-1 and add linux-firmware in pacman.conf to "IgnorePkg = ..." line for the time being.

In my case firmware for wifi chip 46.3cfab8da.0 was good, 46.a41adfe7.0 is bad. Didn't test the intermediate version they put out.

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=b44321804352ea595cddffbd8fad81a6c91c128d
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=e58cbf78678fd872d0cf7ab858ba0030cd8695b0

I can confirm that downgrading linux-firmware the card works.

I can confirm. I also have Intel AC 9260 WIFI. Downgrading linux-firmware (20190628.70e4394-1 -> 20190618.acb56f2-1) resolved the issue for me.

*** EDIT ***
Just to add some more information on the issue.

This is the firmware that is loaded with the linux-firmware-20190628.70e4394-1 which DOES NOT work:
kernel: iwlwifi 0000:3b:00.0: loaded firmware version 46.a41adfe7.0 op_mode iwlmvm

This is the firmware that is loaded with the linux-firmware-20190618.acb56f2-1 which DOES work:
kernel: iwlwifi 0000:3b:00.0: loaded firmware version 46.3cfab8da.0 op_mode iwlmvm

I can also confirm the bug and confirm downgrading linux-firmware as specified in last comments works. My card is Intel Cannon point-LP CNVi [Wireless-AC] (rev30).

Same issue here on iwlwifi AC 9560. Downgrading linux-firmware to 20190618.acb56f2-1 works.

Same issue here with Intel Corporation Cannon Point-LP CNVi. Downgrading firmware helped.

Two commits from Intel's repo should be backported:

I'm experiencing the same problem with the Intel AC 9260 WIFI on a Dell Precsion 5530.
Reverting the linux-firmware package to 20190618.acb56f2-1 fixed it for me as well.

Issue still present with linux-5.2.arch2-1

@sdrik what if you cherry-pick https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/wireless-drivers-next.git/commit/?h=wireless-drivers-next-for-davem-2019-07-06&id=0c3d7282233c7b02c74400b49981d6fff1d683a8 ?
It appears to me to be the two patches you referenced combined and applies cleanly to 5.2.

@loqs I didn't have time to test those patches until now.

I can confirm that cherry-picking https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/wireless-drivers-next.git/commit/?h=wireless-drivers-next-for-davem-2019-07-06&id=0c3d7282233c7b02c74400b49981d6fff1d683a8 onto linux-5.2.arch2-1 does indeed resolve the issue for me. That is, I'm able to boot with linux-firmware-20190628.70e4394-1 and my Intel AC 9260 wifi adapter is working without any error in dmesg.

For those interested, I'm attaching my PKGBUILD and the patch (one hunk needed to be adjusted).

Disclaimer: I'm not a developer or an advanced user, so I may be giving bad advice.

I had this issue during a fresh install in a recently purchased Asus Q326FA laptop. It was particularly annoying because even though the internet worked when the live usb was mounted, it stopped working once I booted into the installed system. Since that was a fresh install, there was no prior linux-firmware package in my pacman cache, so I had to boot back into the flash drive in order to access the internet and downgrade the package through svn.

I can confirm that downgrading to 20190618.acb56f2-1 solved my problem.

For those who run into a similar issue, a couple of things to keep in mind:
1) I didn't know how to properly downgrade a package to a specific version without the pacman cache. Following https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Build_System#Checkout_an_older_version_of_a_package helped a lot.
2) Since you're probably going to run `makepkg -si`, make sure to follow the steps after you've arch-chroot'ed into the installed system and created a proper user with sudo privileges.
3) If you're doing this before setting up grub, keep in mind that after `svn update -r{356797} linux_firmware` and `makepkg -si`, the package `amd-ucode` is installed by default. So remove it before running the grub config tool.

We have a new linux-firmware today, is the 20190712.d52556e-1. However, I've tested and can confirm the bug still exists. With this, we have two linux-firmware versions crashing iwlwifi. Continue ignoring linux-firmware updates until it's fixed.

@jecogeo has upstream indicated to you it will be fixed by a firmware update?

@loqs Not sure. I've written to the package maintainer (Laurent Carlier) this morning getting his attention to this ticket and he immediately assigned the bug to him self on two others. It makes me think the answer is yes.

By upstream I meant Luciano Coelho luciano.coelho@intel.com the Intel developer that authored the firmware update and increased the FW API for the 9000 series to 46.
Or linuxwifi@intel.com / https://bugzilla.kernel.org Product:Networking Component:Wireless / The linux-wireless mailing list.

I can confirm that backporting https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/wireless-drivers-next.git/commit/?h=wireless-drivers-next-for-davem-2019-07-06&id=0c3d7282233c7b02c74400b49981d6fff1d683a8 on top of linux-5.2.1-arch1-1 also fixes the issue with linux-firmware-20190712.d52556e-1.

No luck from me. I upgraded linux and linux-firmware:
[ALPM] upgraded linux-firmware (20190618.acb56f2-1 -> 20190712.d52556e-1)
[ALPM] upgraded linux (5.2.arch2-1 -> 5.2.1.arch1-1)

Downgrading the linux-firmware (and only linux-firmware) causes the Wifi to work:
[ALPM] downgraded linux-firmware (20190712.d52556e-1 -> 20190618.acb56f2-1)

@loqs, this is really far beyond the understanding of the system I have. Do you think they must be notified? If yes, do you think you are keen to do it?

If upstream is not aware of the issue then unless the arch kernel maintainers choose to apply a patch to the kernel locally or the linux-firmware maintainer chooses to revert the firmware update
I would expect the issue to not be resolved until the release of 5.3 which http://phb-crystal-ball.org/ estimates will be Sunday, 2019-09-15.
I lack the hardware to provide any diagnostics upstream might require so I will leave it to those affected.

Same behavior with "Intel Corporation Cannon Point-LP CNVi [Wireless-AC]" controller

See this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=247599

https://git.archlinux.org/linux.git/commit/?id=8dcd32438c96b8099b6447712148a4e4a06c78a7
Can those affected confirm the issue is resolved by linux 5.2.2.arch1-1 currently in testing?

I can confirm, the linux 5.2.2 kernel that's in testing appears to work correctly when paired with the latest firmware package.


[ALPM] upgraded linux-firmware (20190618.acb56f2-1 -> 20190712.d52556e-1)
[ALPM] upgraded linux (5.2.1.arch1-1 -> 5.2.2.arch1-1)

The issue is fixed for me also.
Upgrading the firmware to 20190717.bf13a71-1 and the kernel to 5.2.2.arch1-1 the module is loaded correctly:

Latest firmware and kernel fixed it for me too, using the "Intel Corporation Cannon Point-LP CNVi [Wireless-AC]" controller
