Ok,
I tricked my HP into getting the Enet port 2 installed, cost me 2 freezes, but it is now installed, so I am no longer getting the 'go apply' in the logs.
BUT now it KP's on boot regardless. I can't catch any of the information in the logs.
It won't write and it goes through a huge backtrace thing on the screen so the information is useless.
And it goes by too fast for me, so I am at a loss as to how to help on this now...

Oh, running 3945 1034

i think the dev_queue_xmit() need better code...

fixed some bugs

iwi3945 rel 1035
iwi4965 rel 1036

Ok, built & tested 1036, attached is a pic of latest KP.

Hope this helps.

1035 -> freezes (KP's)

I am looking at your logs nordix and am encouraged & discouraged. What is the config of your box? What kernel are you using? Because obviously with the KALy that I am using, the driver is not doing any scan, and never comes up with the MAC address of the enet card...

I am wondering if different kernels react differently to the driver.
Mark

yep
i need someone to add
IOLog("1\n");
IOLog("2\n"); etc
to the functions of previous kp to find out where the driver get the kp

nordix,
if you allways get kp
there's no point in posting log because it as no data related with the kp

add iologs to
ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl()
and
rs_get_rate()
this will show the place of the kp

wait...
i'll try this code in ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl()
if (unlikely(!tx->sta)
return TXRX_CONTINUE;

if this if 1st packect bug it will fix it
i'll upload to svn

try it

iwi3945 rel 1037
iwi4965 rel 1038

Jalavoui,
I am happy to hack the code if you can be a little more specific about which file/area you need me to put in the IOLog routines?
I haven't taken time to really look at your code because it has been changing so fast with updates.
Mark

i've hacked dev_get_by_index()
might help

iwi3945 rel 1039
iwi4965 rel 1040

forgot to update 4965
iwi4965 rel 1041

to insert iologs
look at nordix example
quite easy to catch kp tis way

1037 -> all the same...

jalavoui - how should I insert iologs? like in the attached file?

Have come back right now, will download last version and try to hack that code.
Will inform as soon as i can get something clear

Nordix has done a good job with the iologs, so im going to test directly!!

ok,
here is the latest KP.

Reboot log and manual scan log

On reboot, i always get ucode errors no matter what i put on iosleep, but the card seems to recover and do a first scan by itself.


I have reboot 10 times, no KP.

ok - run a few tests

Hey Guys. I just started using OSx86 on my laptop and I have the intel 3945abg card. I'm really really excited to hear about this project, but I have no idea how to get or use these drivers. I heard that they are on svn some where, but I'm not familiar with OSX. If it wouldn't bother you guys too much, could you point me somewhere that will help me figure out how to begin testing this driver along with you guys? If it's posted in this topic somewhere, go ahead and curse at me if you must, but also include the post number or something. Thanks

biojay, you need to set up your system to download the latest rel from the svn that jalavoui set up. Then you need to compile the kext yourself. if you are up for the challenge, check out this topic:

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=71779

Thanks. I'm currently downloading Xcode. I have experience with SVN, linux, etc. Just never messed with mac software before, so I didn't know really how things were done there. Thanks for the topic and help.

Jalavoui, I just want to say thanks for devoting the time to this project. I installed OSX on my compaq the other day and was really excited with the results. The only thing that wasn't working was the 3945abg card. Hopefully soon it'll be fully functional.

that was because of errors at startup
try a few reboots

the driver can't work if
May 9 11:55:26 localhost kernel[0]: warning iwl3945: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch
you need to turn the card on before testing - press the wireless switch

iwi 3945 r1044
Took a lot of reboots to get rid of timeouts, but finally booted ok, log attached.
When tried to use manual scan, got frozen after that, reboot got an SCAN COMPLETE NOTIFICATION and kp here:

Yes you are right!
After a large amount of reboots it started now.

iwi4965 rel 1055

Iwi 3945 rel 1052.
Passed the kp , no timeouts, no ucode errors, the card init ok and began entering channels for scan , end failing restoring operational channel.
Here is your log.

Will try next version right now.

well, I still have KP's with 1054... and don't know where

iwi 3945 r1054
Different types of kp but one repeated a lot, i will post some part of the lines before the KP, sure you will know them:

Compatibility.cpp: 6181
bssid: 00:00:00:00:00:00

compatibility.cpp:6545

compatibility.cpp:6181
bssid: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Then kP.

kp fix

iwi3945 rel 1056

Can someone post the kext for this version?

iwi3945 rel 1056

No KP at installation will try some reboots here is my installation log (system.rtf)
