Hi,
after suspend, my wlan is dead and it cannot be restarted. I
searched Google for the problem and I found a solution that
might work, I thought. But it doesn't.
I added a line to /etc/pm/config.d/gentoo:
SUSPEND_MODULES="r8188eu"
Then, I recompiled the kernel to load r8188eu as a module.
It didn't help.
After the suspend, when I say lsmod, the module is still
there. Maybe this is the source of the problem.
What do I have to try?
Thanks in advance.
Bertram

I had this same problem with the ath5k driver (still do, I bet)
on my Thinkpad x61s. What happens if you run "sudo rfkill list"
after you resume from suspend? Does it show that the wireless is
"hard blocked"?
In my case, it was, so I tried something stupid. I patched my kernel
to answer "no" to the question "is rfkill enabled?"... and it worked!

Maybe you can do the same thing for your driver, if rfkill is actually the issue.
I have a possibly outdated writeup of the issue here:

First of all:
The rfkill install interferes with Git!

I helped myself by renaming the .git directory, but that's
only a workaround.
How can I fix this? Should I report this?

It looks like you have your PORTAGE_TMPDIR set as /usr/portage/tmp?
I'm not sure if that is supposed to work or not, but I suspect that
might be the problem. Since it is located INSIDE a git repository (if
you have /usr/portage checked out from git), I suspect there is some
confusion if the package is trying to check something else out using
git or otherwise manipulate it. The .git directory is outside of the
sandbox so it shouldn't be able to be modified.
I suggest moving PORTAGE_TMPDIR to someplace like /var/tmp or /tmp or
someplace else. It isn't really ideal to have volatile information in
/usr anyway (this is the part where everybody chimes in and points out
that /usr/portage is in the wrong place to begin with).

This way, everyone's unhappy. If we move it to a new better location,
then there will be public outcry from the people who prefer a different
new better location.
/var/cache/portage/repositories is the one true god

Indeed. I have a "build partition" that I use for both,
package downloading and building in /usr/portage/tmp.
The rfkill make suite looks for a version number and in case
the work directory is a Git repo it tries to query the
version number there. Then, it finds the Git repo in
/usr/portage and fails. Not very friendly!

I'll see how I solve it. I do not have time to make a
decision this evening.

You could
# mount -o bind /usr/portage/tmp /var/tmp/portage
and then point the portage tmp dir to that directory. From there,
ebuilds cannot see the .git of /usr/portage.

As long as I do not set GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM...
I decided to add the following line to /etc/portage/make.conf:
GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES="$GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES:$PORTAGE_TMPDIR"
This should be part of the documentation. Where do I best
report it?

I don't think that if you navigate upwards after following a bind
mount that you end up in the tree that was mounted. Ie,
/var/tmp/portage/.. = /var/tmp, not /usr/portage. With a symbolic
link it would resolve to /usr/portage unless the shell does something
clever.
You can mount bind mounts into containers, and I'm pretty confident
the container can't navigate out into the rest of the filesystem that
way.

Well, for anything on the wiki I'd suggest just adding it. For the
manpages I'd submit a bug on bugs.gentoo.org against portage (the
software).

True. This is why I suggested a bind mount and not a symlink.

Do you have an address of the wiki you mean? Reporting
should take less time than finding the fix.

Doesn't seem to.
