I tested your diff for the last two days and noticed a regression
After some time one of the two things happens:
* Transfer rates drop to 0. Directly visible if I run tcpbench,
indirectly if I cannot work with the Network any longer. I waited
for quite some time (> 10m) for something to happened, however, nothing
changes. Then I restarted the interface.
* My Thinkpad completely looses connection to my AP (Fritzbox) such that
I have to take iwm0 down and run sh /etc/netstart iwm0.
It happens when I work as usual (SSH, email, surfing, etc) and if I do
nothing else then running tcpbench between the Thinkpad and a APU2
running 6.5.
I run the diff with the following hardware on latest -current:
iwm0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 "Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265" rev 0x78, msi
iwm0: hw rev 0x230, fw ver 22.361476.0, address 7c:2a:31:4d:1c:b9
Cheers
