Test new xradio firmware

If somebody has a chance to test new firmware blob for XR819 feedback would be appreciated :love:

Simply grab the fw_xr819.bin from the PR below, replace your current one and reboot. Check if Wi-Fi still works as expected or ideally even better.

The file is located here: /usr/lib/firmware/xr819/

 

https://github.com/armbian/firmware/commit/aff348fa9eef0fcc97d4f2bb7304f0862baffc20

 

If in doubt create a backup of your current firmware bin.

As far as I can tell nothing much changed - nothing negative and nothing positive (still 200ms ping).

 

Did I actually install the new version or am I just an idiot?

The power management still acts up on my board.

Ping is arround 200ms even though Power Management:off

If I let the orange Pi ping the router or something else every 50ms ( ping -i 0,05 ) the orange pi responds < 5ms. I assume the ping command forces it out of the power safe mode.

Can you confirm this?

After 24h running the new firmware on Armbian 21.02.0-trunk Buster with Linux 5.9.11-sunxi I got the following:

This did not happen with the old version?

I've checked on my second OPi0 where I didn't upgrade firmware, so still previous version, and the issue is also present :

I have observed kernel panics using xradio driver before. Check Opizero wifi kernel hang

I decided to test it with this driver.
Summary: No improvements

image.thumb.png.b9971ffd44a15520caae9cb8b2a2766b.png

 

Ap mode

No kernel panics were observed during 1 day when running only on AP mode.

 

However, when Orange Pi is rebooted in AP mode, kernel panic was observed.

After running 5 Orange Pi devices, after 60 average reboots, Kernel panic occurred for all devices.

[   74.754140] rcu: blocking rcu_node structures:

Same error was observed in old firmware.

 

Client mode

No kernel panics were observed during 1 day when connected to an AP with a non-changing channel.

 

Running in Client mode and changing AP’s channel result in similar kernel panic.

But this occurred rarely. Running 5 Orange pi zero devices and changing channel continuously 72 times, lead to a Kernel panic only on 1 device.

 

Running in Client mode, and rebooting also result in Kernel panic.

It took an average of 200 reboots for the Kernel panic for 5 Orange Pi Zero Devices.

Same error occurred on all situations.

 

Hope this helps.

This is how I tested.

Tested with the standard Armbian 20.11 Buster with Linux 5.8.16-sunxi

 

[7789.126960] xradio WRN: BH: missed 9 consecutive interrupts!
[ 7798.343147] xradio WRN: BH: missed 10 consecutive interrupts!
[ 8168.424968] xradio WRN: BH: missed 11 consecutive interrupts!

As already mentioned happens also on the old version

 

[14108.446345] wlan0: XXX tries to chanswitch to same channel, ignore
[14108.446708] wlan0: cannot understand ECSA IE operating class, 11, ignoring

Happened only once with the new version in 6 days, never with the old version. I have however something similar on the OPiZ+ with roughly the same time stamp and hence doubt that the firmware is to blame.

 

[ 5248.939102] xradio STA-WRN: [CQM] BSS lost, Beacon miss=20, event=24.
[ 5249.043167] xradio STA-WRN: [CQM] Beacon loss.
[ 5251.051198] xradio STA-ERR: [CQM] if0 Reporting connection loss.

Only happened once with the new firmware, never with the old. Don’t know what to think of it.

 

-> The firmware seems to be just as crappy as before. Is there a changelog available?

Hi everyone, I get an error when I work in AP mode, does anyone have anything new what can be done to overcome this?
Thank you!
