Hi Ferz,

As spoken you may workaround this by loading if_ath at boot time. Just add the
following line to your /boot/loader.conf:

if_ath_load=YES

It should load without problems, otherwise you may want to tell us.

HTH.

Cheers,

Hi Ferz,

ath(4) and the IEEE80211 stack was updated. Also contigmalloc was reworked some time ago.
I don't think this happens anymore but can you please confirm it?

Cheers,
Antonio Huete

ath(4) and the IEEE80211 stack have been updated since this bug was opened. There have not been reports of this happening with ath(4) anymore. Nevertheless in the case it happens again, just open a new ticket. We can use contigmalloc(9) for the particular cases it may happen.
