Sometimes, in yet unknown cases the wifi chip stops working. To allow a watchdog in userspace to easily and quickly reset the wifi chip, add the according functionality to userspace. A reset can then be triggered via: $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/reset The number of user resets can further be tracked in the row "User reset" in the same file. So far people usually used "iw scan" to fix ath9k chip hangs from userspace. Which triggers the ath9k_queue_reset(), too. The reset file however has the advantage of less overhead, which makes debugging bugs within ath9k_queue_reset() easier.

README
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.
