1. I don't know how to use GDB. Consider me entry level developer. 2. It should not be related the change I made on ath9k. The reasons are a. My change is simple, linux/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k.h: change ATH_BCBUF from 4 to 12 b. Without my change, driver accepts up to 3 extra BSSID. But hostapd still hangs on quit. Hostapd quits well if there only one extra BSSID. This problem is 100% reproducible. I guess it would be quite easy for the original hostapd developer to fix it. -----Original Message----- From: Ben Greear [mailto:greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, January 07, 2011 12:50 PM To: Chaoxing Lin Cc: 'linux-wireless@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: Re: hostapd hangs on quit, multi-BSSID scenario On 01/07/2011 09:44 AM, Chaoxing Lin wrote: > Gentlemen, > > When I run hostapd with 8+1 BSSID over one radio (ath9160), it runs well.

If someone can fix this bug, please help. Maybe attach gdb to hostapd and see where it hangs? Also, what change did you make to ath9k?
