Subject: Re: Suspending and resuming a single PCI device (and bridge)
I've got a wireless card (atheros 5418 on a MacBookPro3,1) which is
(kind-of) supported by the madwifi driver (from head), however
occasionally it gets stuck (long outstanding bug with lots of
comments, but no fixes) - I've noticed that a suspend to ram and
resume (almost?) always fixes the problem.
Thus, I'm wondering if there is a way to cause a pci device (and
possibly the pci bridge/port it's connected to) to suspend/resume
manually (or naturally, any other solution to the problem)...
The hardware in question:

Kernel driver in use: ath_pci

When the problem happens, the kernel driver reports:
kernel: wifi0: ath_rxorn_tasklet: Receive FIFO overrun; resetting.
kernel:last message repeated 92 times
I've noticed this seems to be correlated to <MAbort+ being asserted on
the pci port (00:1c.4) and on the device itself (0b:00.0) - thus I
think the above message is more of a symptom, than an actual
problem...
Does anyone have any ideas (for example how [else] to clear MAbort)?
This is on kernel 2.6.24.4-74.fc8 from koji for fedora core 8 (also
present on 2.6.24.3-*.fc8), but people have reported issues on pretty
much everything (ubuntu, etc), any desired futher information
available by request...
