Subject: Re: kern/35682: WEP enabled ath does not come back from acpi
 sleep/wake.
Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2007 10:06:01 +1000

 I've done some more debug after discussing this problem with 
 Steve Bellovin. If I pre-load all 4 WEP keyslots in the ath card with
 the same WEP key, using the command:
 
 ifconfig ath0 nwkey 1:foobar,foobar,foobar,foobar
 
 and then do the ACPI sleep/wake, when I come back from sleep, there is
 only one WEP key in an ifconfig display instead of all 4, but, the key
 works.
 
 I think this shows that some basic state for the card isn't
 being saved cleanly across the ACPI sleep/wake, or that if not
 initialized, the default value isn't correctly saved.
 
 I'm going to play with setting the explicit keynumber on wake, and with
 using the in-card WEP keystore too later on.
 
  cheers
