I haven't heard any news about the ath9k bug that's been plaguing me so I thought I'd try doing some debugging myself by adding printk messages to shutdown functions. The trouble is the current snapshot (2011-05-05) won't build against Debian's 2.6.38 kernel: /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c: In function â___ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_sessionâ: /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:158: error: implicit declaration of function âkfree_rcuâ /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:158: error: ârcu_headâ undeclared (first use in this function) /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:158: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:158: error: for each function it appears in.) /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c: In function âieee80211_tx_ba_session_handle_startâ: /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:317: error: ârcu_headâ undeclared (first use in this function) /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c: In function âieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cbâ: /home/tony/compat-wireless-2011-05-05/net/mac80211/agg-tx.c:696: error: ârcu_headâ undeclared (first use in this function) I think the errors about rcu_head are actually caused by the lack of a definition for kfree_rcu. I Googled it and AFAICT kfree_rcu was only introduced this March. But compat-wireless is supposed to work with all 2.6 kernels isn't it, so why is it using such a new feature? Have I just caught a "bad" snapshot before an alternative for kfree_rcu was added for older kernels? I'd prefer to build against 2.6.38 if possible because compiling a 2.6.39-rc will take hours and then cause some inconvenience with the nvidia packages.
