[Bug 930340] New: rtl8723be: wifi locks and disconnects on re-keying
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=930340 Bug ID: 930340 Summary: rtl8723be: wifi locks and disconnects on re-keying Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE 13.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: psychonaut@nothingisreal.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- I have a Realtek WLAN controller which uses the rtl8723be driver on the 3.16.7-21-desktop kernel. After connecting to a wireless network, the connection works for about 20 or 30 minutes. The connection then drops, and nothing short of rebooting can get it to connect again. Examining /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log shows that the disconnection always happens after a group rekeying: wlp2s0: WPA: Group rekeying completed with 5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 [GTK=TKIP] wlp2s0: WPA: Group rekeying completed with 5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 [GTK=TKIP] wlp2s0: WPA: Group rekeying completed with 5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 [GTK=TKIP] wlp2s0: WPA: Group rekeying completed with 5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 [GTK=TKIP] wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 reason=2 wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-REGDOM-CHANGE init=DRIVER type=WORLD wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED wlp2s0: SME: Trying to authenticate with 5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 (SSID='FrettchenNet' freq=2462 MHz) wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED wlp2s0: SME: Trying to authenticate with 5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 (SSID='FrettchenNet' freq=2462 MHz) wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED wlp2s0: SME: Trying to authenticate with 5c:d9:98:e4:d9:d0 (SSID='FrettchenNet' freq=2462 MHz) wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-SSID-TEMP-DISABLED id=0 ssid="FrettchenNet" auth_failures=1 duration=10 reason=CONN_FAILED This looks to be the upstream bug report: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/issues/22 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Could you test the newer upstream kernel in OBS Kernel:stable repo? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I haven't been able to reproduce the disconnect problem, so I assume that the newer rtl8723be driver fixed it. I'm tentatively re-resolving this as "WORKSFORME", but if that's not the correct value, please let me know. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
