Is it possible that somehow cfg80211 is picking up an #ifdef'ed copy of "struct iw_handler_def", and thus the struct it is defining is simply too small? You can figure that out with debug info, presumably, but I'm not entirely sure how. Actually maybe nm would tell you too, if you look for cfg80211_wext_handler. What I mean is this -- cfg80211 defines cfg80211_wext_handler: const struct iw_handler_def cfg80211_wext_handler .num_standard .standard .get_wireless_stats but the core expects .num_standard .standard .num_private .num_private_args .private .private_args .get_wireless_stats as such .num_private ends up non-zero because it's shadowed by .get_wireles_stats. johannes
