What you see is some issue with kfree I do not understand. Please take a look at: "Crash with kfree(null) on MacBook? kobject_set_name_vargs" https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/10/71 When I call dev_set_name result with new name for device, internal implementation performs "kfree" on *old name*. Of course there was not old name, so kfree is being called on * char pointing to NULL. On my device it does not crash, but on yours and on Andy's it does. We got suggestion to enable SLUB/SLAB debugging. Andy didn't try it yet. Could you spend a moment trying to debug this? -- RafaÅ -- 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
