Hi,

I get lots of:

[ 4439.191058] SKB BUG: Invalid truesize (712) len=543, sizeof(sk_buff)=200                                                                 
[ 4439.730154] SKB BUG: Invalid truesize (712) len=524, sizeof(sk_buff)=200                                                                 
[ 4440.401994] SKB BUG: Invalid truesize (712) len=543, sizeof(sk_buff)=200                                                                 

lately... (even with todays wireless-testing.git)

mostly when I'm testing the p54 ap-mode (station mode is fine)...
but, I got them on my Intel 4965n (iwlwifi in 2.6.25-rc7-git5) too.
nothing bad happend so far, other than MBs of spamming in the logs.
So, is this a known problem and more or less harmless, or not? 

Regards,
	Chr

Yes, it's a known problem, and seems to happen with TX packets whenever
you have a monitor mode (or just cooked monitor?) open. I don't know
what causes it but I'm fairly sure it's not harmless.
