Hi,

Some of the ath interfaces in my soekris boxes get an OACTIVE flag. These
interfaces are in hostap mode:

ath1: flags=8d43<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,OACTIVE,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu
1500
        ssid TEST-AP
        powersave off
        bssid 00:20:a6:58:0b:ae chan 3
        address: 00:20:a6:58:0b:ae
        media: IEEE802.11 autoselect mode 11g hostap
        status: active
        inet6 2001:660:3302:2a20:220:a6ff:fe58:bae prefixlen 64
        inet6 fe80::220:a6ff:fe58:bae%ath1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5

BTW in /var/log/messages:

Jan  8 10:06:01 soekris-12 /netbsd: ath1: device timeout
Jan  8 16:22:31 soekris-12 /netbsd: ath1: device timeout
Jan  9 09:22:08 soekris-12 /netbsd: ath1: device timeout
Jan  9 11:28:44 soekris-12 rtadvd[414]: <ra_output> sendmsg on ath1: No
buffer space available
Jan  9 12:00:05 soekris-12 rtadvd[414]: <ra_output> sendmsg on ath1: No
buffer space available
Jan  9 12:00:08 soekris-12 rtadvd[414]: <ra_output> sendmsg on ath1: No
buffer space available


The only place I found in ath.c able to put the interface in this state is
in the ath_start function. On the other hand "ifconfig ath1 down; ifconfig
ath1 up" makes the interface start working again. So I wonder what could be
the difference between this manual "reset" and the "device
timeout"->"reset"->"ath_start" procedure. Anything not drained correctly?

Konstantin
