I can start taking a look at this if you like, but I see that Gao feng has two patches in the last set of patches that may be related. To give you an idea how early the crash is, here are a few log messages leading up to it: [ 0.003455] Dentry cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 9, 2097152 bytes) [ 0.005550] Inode-cache hash table entries: 131072 (order: 8, 1048576 bytes) [ 0.007165] Mount-cache hash table entries: 256 [ 0.010289] Initializing cgroup subsys net_cls [ 0.010947] Initializing cgroup subsys net_prio [ 0.011039] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000828 [ 0.011998] IP: [<ffffffff814202c8>] update_netdev_tables+0x68/0xe0 -- Mark Rustad, LAN Access Division, Intel Corporation -- 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
