iwlwifi broken - Kernel 5.2

**rekondo** · 2019-08-27

I've just upgraded my Kali install and after rebooting in kernel 5.2 wifi isn't working.
Wireless section from settings window appears and disappears in an infinite loop.

When booting back to kernel 4.19 wifi works as usual.

Kernel: 5.2.9-2kali1
Wireless card: Intel AC 9560
firmware-iwlwifi version: 20190717-1
firmware version: 46.a41adfe7.0

I've googled for "FW error in SYNC CMD GEO_TX_POWER_LIMIT" and found similar errors in fedora and ubuntu but couldn't apply those fixes in Kali.
It seems to be related to firmware version 46.a41adfe7.

WORKAROUND

Seems that kernel 5.2 tries to use firmware version 46, while firmware 4.19 uses firmware version 38.

Renaming /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9000-pu-b0-jf-b0-46.ucode to /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9000-pu-b0-jf-b0-46.bak (just in case) prevents the firmware from loading thus making the driver load a previous version.

In my case, the driver tried 5 times until it found version 41 and wireless card became ready.

Then I've made a copy of firmware version 41 and renamed as version 46, just to avoid the driver trying to load different versions.

Everything is working fine so far.

Nice. Noted in case if this is required.

For anyone that finds this thread, I had similar issue on 5.4 kernel, with Intel Wireless-AC 9260 (rev 29); tried forcing the use of previous versions of the firmware, using 38 above was successful for a bit, but ultimately failed for my card and ended up troubleshooting again.... For my card the most stable version so far was one that I found in popOS (and is also in ubuntu's base desktop image; I booted ubuntu live to determine why my card was stable there and not in Kali).

Test case steps
============
1. Rename your relevant drivers in /lib/firmware so you can test each 1 by 1
- Example: mv /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-38.ucode /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-38.ucode.bak
- The above is used because my card is : 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9260 (rev 29) note the two numbers matching: 9260
2. In one terminal, tail the kernel log to watch for the errors
- tail -f /var/log/kern.log

3. For the driver under test, make sure it has the standard name ending in .ucode
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-34.ucode.38.bak
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-34.ucode.intel
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-34.ucode.orig
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-38.ucode.bak
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-38.ucode.orig
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-41.ucode.38.bak
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-41.ucode.orig
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-43.ucode <----------------------||||
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-46.ucode.bak.38
iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-46.ucode.orig

3. Unload and reload the iwlwifi kernel module (it will likely be in use by iwlmvm, so you have to remove that first)
- rmmod iwlmvm
- rmmod iwlwifi
- modprove iwlwifi

4. Watch for errors in the tailed kernel.log terminal, and force web traffic
- for i in {1..100} ; do curl https://news.google.com --silent 1>/dev/null ; done
- I through some additional tests in there by going to fast.com to see if there was any speed differential, but not really.

5. Lather, rinse, repeat

The driver that worked for me (43) was found here
- https://github.com/pop-os/linux-firm...jf-b0-43.ucode

I'm having the same issue after updating but with what Kali shows as a RT2870/RT3070 (ALFAAWUS036NEH). Would the fix in /lib/firmware work the same way? Minus the linked Github Driver of course.
