Hello again,
Compiled and installed the latest snapshot. Rebooted and started in
single mode. During boot the following versions are reported :
ipw2200 driver git-1.0.8,
ieee80211 stack git-1.1.7.
The following configuration options (under "kernel hacking" menu) have
been enabled:
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ=y
CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=14
CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=y
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y
CONFIG_4KSTACKS=y
Then - I simply ran wpasupplicant (version 0.4.6). Simple sequence:
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ddd -i eth0 -c wpa.conf
<scan / assoc - attempts to authenticate ...>
then Control-C
So far so good. No problem.
Then try again several times :
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ddd -i eth0 -c wpa.conf
<scan / assoc - attempts to authenticate ...>
then Control-C
Eventually kernel will freeze (I can trigger this reliably, tried 3
times and it "worked" 3 times as well). Although I've seen no error message
printed to console - sysrq-T always shows the same stack trace (in
wpa_supplicant context:
ipw_request_direct_scan
__change_page_attr
poison_obj
dbg_redzone1
autiremove_wake_function
ipw_wx_set_scan+0x7f/0x81
copy_from_user
wirelees_process_ioctl
ipw_wx_set_scan+0x0/0x81
sock_ioctl
do_ioctl
vfs_ioctl
sys_ioctl
sysenter_past_esp
