From: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@xxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit be0b5e635883678bfbc695889772fed545f3427d ] Transmission of an AP beacon does not call the TX interrupt service routine, which usually does the cleanup. Instead, cleanup is handled in a tasklet completion routine. Unfortunately, this routine has a serious bug in that it does not release the DMA mapping before it frees the skb, thus one IOMMU mapping is leaked for each beacon. The test system failed with no free IOMMU mapping slots approximately one hour after hostapd was used to start an AP. This issue was reported and tested at https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/issues/30.
