Hi, I just observed the above kernel warning after issuing an "wpa_cli reassociate", followed by some "iwconfig" calls to check the status. Kernel is 3.4.7, Hardware is x86 (32bit) and ath9k WARNING comes from inline function "rate_lowest_index": 3629 /* warn when we cannot find a rate. */ 3630 WARN_ON_ONCE(1); Full stacktrace below: [1793205.090602] wlan0: deauthenticating from XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX by local choice (reason=3) [1793205.090754] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [1793205.105295] WARNING: at include/net/mac80211.h:3630 rate_control_send_low+0xc1/0x1a1 [mac80211]() [1793205.132424] Modules linked in: aes_generic xt_TCPMSS ipt_ULOG ipt_MASQUERADE xt_LOG xt_time xt_connlimit xt_helper xt_realm xt_NFQUEUE xt_tcpmss xt_addrtype xt_pkttype iptab le_raw xt_TPROXY nf_tproxy_core ip6_tables nf_defrag_ipv6 xt_hashlimit xt_comment xt_length xt_connmark xt_owner xt_recent xt_iprange xt_physdev xt_policy xt_multiport iptable_na t nf_nat xt_conntrack nf_conntrack_tftp nf_conntrack_sip nf_conntrack_proto_sctp nf_conntrack_pptp nf_conntrack_proto_gre nf_conntrack_netlink nfnetlink nf_conntrack_irc nf_connt rack_h323 nf_conntrack_ftp nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 nf_conntrack ath9k ath5k ath9k_common ath9k_hw mac80211 ath ohci_hcd ehci_hcd cfg80211 [1793205.313648] Pid: 1959, comm: wpa_supplicant Not tainted 3.4.7-ela1 #1 [1793205.333502] Call Trace: [1793205.341407] [<c1016dee>] warn_slowpath_common+0x65/0x7a [1793205.357935] [<d094178b>] ? rate_control_send_low+0xc1/0x1a1 [mac80211] [1793205.378312] [<c1016e12>] warn_slowpath_null+0xf/0x13 [1793205.394073] [<d094178b>] rate_control_send_low+0xc1/0x1a1 [mac80211] [1793205.414008] [<d095af6c>] minstrel_ht_get_rate+0x25/0x295 [mac80211] [1793205.433675] [<d09414fb>] rate_control_get_rate+0x7e/0x24d [mac80211] [1793205.453528] [<c102e7f4>] ?
