Subject: Segmentation fault when taking device for a walk
Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2024 20:24:08 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Zr6cKJePuQd4Dm_n@radian> (raw)
Hi,
A segmentation fault occurs in station_start_roam() when the station is
disconnected from an access point, or in other words, when the station's
connected_bss is NULL. Usually, this is triggered by a timeout, possibly
scheduled in response to a weak signal event.
This is occurring on my Pixel 3a running postmarketOS/Alpine Linux, when
receding from an access point, on iwd 2.19. I have collected 6 coredumps
of the crash in the span of around 2 weeks and would be willing to use
GDB if more information is necessary for a patch.
Sample:
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
#0 0x0000aaaadf2086a0 in station_start_roam (station=0xffff8776ae50) at src/station.c:2880
