  Hello, Andriy.

  Thank you for good information.
  After applying this patch, my dell notebook with 7260 can restart
iwm driver automatically and resume connections.

Yes, this seems to help mine as well.

Now if we can find someone(tm) that can fix the driver, and have it 
use the full capabilities of my 7260 AC chip.

Heh, finding that intersection is the trick. I don't think people
quite realise how much progress in linux land happens because
companies are paying for it. I'm just too burnt out and I want to
finish the work I've started here and there before I take on anything
new.

All I can suggest is that you contact the FreeBSD foundation
(publicly, if you're willing) and explain how important
laptops/wireless is for you. If their main feedback is from large
companies caring about sendfile and arm64, then their priorities won't
ever change!

hiya,

I have a variety of devices hanging off a QCA955x MIPS SoC + 2.4GHz 3x3 11n. So
far so good.

Yeah, please share more details about your laptop setup. Bridge, what has IPs,
how are you starting hostapd, etc.
