.Bl -diag
.It "awi0: unable to allocate memory space; using i/o only"
Indicates that the driver was not able to allocate 32kb of PCMCIA bus
address space into which to map the device; the driver will use the
(slightly slower) i/o-space only access methods to read and write to
the shared memory.
Since by default,
.Nx
only allocates 16kb of
address space per PCMCIA controller, this message is in some sense to
be expected and should not be a cause for alarm.
See
.Xr pcmcia 4
for information on how to increase the memory available to the PCMCIA
controller.
.It "awi0: awi_pccard_probe: bad banner:"
The device failed to initialize its firmware.
.It "awi0: failed to complete selftest (%s)"
The device failed to complete its self test.
.It "awi0: synced with no-bssid at channel %d"
The device is ready to relay traffic at specified channel.
.It "awi0: synced with %s ssid %s at channel %d"
The device has successfully synchronized with at least one of the
identified stations and is ready to relay traffic.
.It "awi0: associated with %s ssid %s channel %d signal %d"
The device has successfully synchronized with the identified Access
Point and is ready to relay traffic.
.It "awi0: authentication failed (reason %d)"
.It "awi0: association failed (reason %d)"
The access point refuses the association request from the device.
.It "awi0: no recent beacons from %s; rescanning"
The device has not seen a beacon from its currently associated Access
Point recently, and is looking for a new access point.
In some circumstances, resetting device after power on fails.
Re-inserting the card or down-then-up interface may be helpful.
.It "awi0: transmit timeout"
The device failed to generate an interrupt to acknowledge a
transmitted packet.
