While running stress tests in roaming scenarios (switching ap's every 5 seconds, we discovered a issue which leads to tx hangings of exactly 5 seconds while or after scanning for new accesspoints. We found out that this hanging is triggered by ath10k_mac_wait_tx_complete since the empty_tx_wq was not wake when the num_tx_pending counter reaches zero. To fix this, we simply move the wake_up call to htt_tx_dec_pending, since this call was missed on several locations within the ath10k code.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
