> Markus, are you sure that you cannot use netdev_warn in this case? No. - I did not become familiar enough with the software infrastructure around the mppe_rekey() function. I do not see so far how I could determine a pointer for the first parameter there. The data structure "ppp_mppe_state" (which is referenced by the input variable "state") does not contain corresponding context information, does it?
