Hi,
Then I set compat.linuxkpi.80211.hw_crypto=1.
First strange thing: "ifconfig wlan0" output doesn't differ; it' still says
"54Mbps" and "11g".
WiFi doesn't seem to work properly, as I cannot even ssh into the machine
(hangs after some startup messages).
Okay, we should try to figure out why that is.
Also I started seeing a lot of messages that invite me to report to PR
274382.
That is likely because you don't get a stable association and net80211
swaps the node and tries to send the first packet.
I'll eventually try in other networks, if I can.
If you can compile yourself, can you (in 14.2 / stable/14 still in
/usr/src (or wherever your source tree is) and then
tools/tools/net80211/wlanstats/
Type make and make install and make sure your shell finds the newly
innstalled program.
wlanstats [-i wlan0] might tell you things and we can start seeing
what's wrong maybe.
Fine, this was just a test for fun.
Either I did something wrong or it just can't work on 14.2.
Or it should but doesn't and we need to fix that.
Now, the real question: are you interested in such reports in 274382?
Given the "unofficial" (to say the least) state of my kernel, I'm not sure.
I am about to remove the "reposrt to PR..." bit from the kernels; I
have more than plenty reports still and now that some queue got flushed
I an can spend a day or two trying to address some of the PRs to sort
these out (the BT COex one as well hopefully).

That is very valuble information as well. I still don't have a 9xxx to
test with. I should get one.
Thanks a lot for going the full way of trying with all the extra
cherry-picks.
