ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr() must be called under the RCU lock and
the resulting pointer is only valid under RCU lock as well.

Fix ath10k_wmi_tlv_parse_peer_stats_info() to hold RCU lock before it
calls ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr() and release it when the resulting
pointer is no longer needed. The log below shows the problem.

While at it, fix ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_pull_peer_stats_info() to do the same.

Unlucky timing also on this one, it conflicts with a patch I applied yesterday:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git/commit/?h=ath-next&id=2615e3cdbd9c0e864f5906279c952a309871d225

Can you redo the patch to only change ath10k_wmi_event_tdls_peer()?


Yes. I will send the patch just for ath10k_wmi_event_tdls_peer()
on top of your patch.

error: patch failed: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/wmi-tlv.c:240
error: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/wmi-tlv.c: patch does not apply
stg import: Diff does not apply cleanly

Patch set to Changes Requested.


thanks,
