Subject: rt61: Kernel bug in ieee80211.c:4920
Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2007 21:33:05 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1176341585.21564.30.camel@dv> (raw)
Hello!
I've tried the current wireless-dev.git with an rt61 card, but I forgot
to install the firmware. The driver loaded and informed me of missing
firmware, but crashed on unload:
PM: Removing info for No Bus:0000:06:00.0
rt61pci->rt61pci_load_firmware: Error - Failed to load Firmware.
Unloading module: rt61pci - CVS (N/A) by http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com.
bus pci: remove driver rt61pci

This is net/mac80211/ieee80211.c, line 4920:
BUG_ON(local->reg_state != IEEE80211_DEV_REGISTERED);
Apparently rt61 calls ieee80211_unregister_hw() even though it never
called ieee80211_register_hw() due to the failure to load the firmware.
Either mac80211 should be more tolerant, or rt61 should keep track of
what it has registered. I'm unsure which is better, hence no patch
attached ;)
