Repetitive Broadcom errors in journalctl

Hi,

I've managed to get everything setup on my Macbook Air 2014. I checked journalctl for errors since last boot and discovered that the following is getting logged once a second (also present in dmesg output):

kernel: ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1)
kernel: ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1)

I think it is referring the the wireless driver. The wireless is working fine for me at the moment. Is there any way stop it complaining (either fixing the issue or just suppressing the error)? I'm using broadcom-wl-dkms from the AUR.

lspci output:

02:00.0 Multimedia controller: Broadcom Corporation Device 1570
03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03)

Thanks in advance.

Fixed

Re: Repetitive Broadcom errors in journalctl

Hey there,

I'm using Macbook Air 2014 with broadcom-wl and every kernel upgrade kill wifi (I'm using wifi-menu to connect). What helps me -- uninstalling and re-building package broadcom-wl.

Here is the relevant thread:

Will check my journalctl.
