Hi,
I've just found a well reproducible brcmfmac crash (NULL pointer dereference).
Steps:
1. Wait for or trigger a FullMAC firmware crash
2. Wait for some skb to get queued on a flowring
3. Call rmmod brcmfmac
Problem:
There is a NULL pointer dereference in one of the brcmf_detach() calls.
Explanation:
brcmf_detach() first frees all "ifp"s and then deletes flowrings. If any
flowring has a skb it results in calling brcmf_txfinalize() which tries
to access "ifp" (struct brcmf_if) which is a NULL.
Pseudo-code forward-trace:
brcmf_detach
foreach
brcmf_remove_interface
brcmf_del_if
brcmf_net_detach
unregister_netdev(ice)
brcmf_proto_detach
brcmf_proto_msgbuf_detach
brcmf_flowring_detach
foreach
brcmf_msgbuf_delete_flowring
brcmf_msgbuf_remove_flowring
brcmf_flowring_delete
brcmf_txfinalize
