6.11.2 ath10k_pci issues

I've recently upgraded to the 6.11.2 kernel on EndeavourOS and started experiencing issues with Wi-Fi connections. Wi-Fi has worked fine for over a year now so this is a recent development.

After checking journalctl I believe that this might be an issue with ath10k_pci and a possible driver regression, but I am not entirely sure since I am fairly new to the Linux world.

I think I've always received PCI-E errors relating to the Wi-Fi module of my laptop (VivoBook 15_ASUS Laptop X542UF 1.0), but they have been automatically corrected, so no real issues.

Wi-Fi worked for around an hour or two, but then the connection mysteriously dropped. Xfce claimed to be connected even though my hotspot was turned off, and restarting NetworkManager.service did not work and resulted in huge amounts of lag (could not move cursor).

Here is the (slightly trimmed to fit pastebin) journalctl from the boot: https://pastebin.com/BhHwj0pK

What are my next steps, is there something wrong on my part or is this a driver / kernel regression that needs to be reported?

Wrong forum, EndeavourOS is not Arch Linux, please post on one of their communites https://forum.endeavouros.com/ instead!

https://terms.archlinux.org/docs/code-o … pport-only

Also you have agreed to this on signup to this support forum:

These forums are for Arch Linux x86_64 ONLY.

Not Artix, or Apricity, or Manjaro, or any of the "easy Arch installers", nor Arch-ARM; nothing other than vanilla 64-bit Arch Linux. Ask those communities for support.
If you have installed Arch, please read the rules before posting. README: Forum Rules.

Edit: See i.e. this comment for tips on how to debug what causes such a regression: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 2#p2200132

Closed and dust binned for the reasons noted.   

Please ask your question on the EndeavourOS support forums.
