Is this really a 2.6.34 regression? The only difference I see that we now (in .35) use MIB interrrupts. > [ 3.130015] handlers: > [ 3.130015] [<c02486e5>] (ath5k_intr+0x0/0x28b) > [ 3.130015] Disabling IRQ #9 > [ 4.014683] ath5k phy0: Atheros AR5414 chip found (MAC: 0xa5, PHY: 0x61) > > [...] > > [ 13.510198] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000009b > [ 13.517396] IP: [<c1138a54>] ath5k_hw_is_intr_pending+0x1/0x19 > [ 13.520166] *pde = 00000000 > [ 13.520166] Oops: 0000 [#1] > [ 13.520166] last sysfs file: > [ 13.520166] Modules linked in: > [ 13.520166] > [ 13.520166] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.34 #1 / > [ 13.520166] EIP: 0060:[<c1138a54>] EFLAGS: 00010046 CPU: 0 > [ 13.520166] EIP is at ath5k_hw_is_intr_pending+0x1/0x19 > [ 13.520166] EAX: ffffffff EBX: cf9289a0 ECX: c12f5f24 EDX: cf9289a0 > [ 13.520166] ESI: c1303920 EDI: ffffffff EBP: c12f5ee4 ESP: c12f5e98 > [ 13.520166] DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 0000 GS: 0000 SS: 0068 > [ 13.520166] Process swapper (pid: 0, ti=c12f4000 task=c12fa300 task.ti=c12f4000) > [ 13.520166] Stack: > [ 13.520166] c12f5ee4 c1143674 00000082 c12f5eb4 c103df6b 00000000 00000030 c12f5ec0 > [ 13.520166] <0> c12f5ec0 c10201ff c12f5ed8 c100393c c12f5f88 cfbdba00 00000001 c141e080 > [ 13.520166] <0> cfbe1de0 c1303920 00000000 c12f5efc c103d773 00000009 00000009 c141e080 > [ 13.520166] Call Trace: > [ 13.520166] [<c1143674>] ? ath5k_intr+0x25/0x1f5 This is from .34. However I don't understand how this can happen. It means that sc->ah is -25. But this cannot be true as sc->ah = kzalloc. "Code:" line would be helpful too. Does the "nobody cared" appear in .34 too? thanks, -- js -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
