Hi,

our users report [1] that their machines freeze hard when they have
rfkill turned on and try to run wpa_supplicant or enable network
otherwise. This is with BCM43225 over PCI chip.

Any ideas what that could be or how to fix this?

Hi Jiri,

Looking in the bug report it seems to be on 3.4 kernel. The commit below is done later.

    brcmsmac: don't start device when RfKill is engaged

    This patch fixes a bug when device is being started
    while RfKill switch is engaged, leading to hang
    due to partial initialization of hardware.
