Subject: Re: memory clobber in rx path, maybe related to ath9k.

Message-ID: <4CBB5218.60302@candelatech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <AANLkTi=tJZ0L1JoE=VPzJVEx1nnB0Td2E9V45RkFAPC8@mail.gmail.com>

I had a chance to try your latest patch on a different machine and AP.  This time,
I was using 130 or so stations, but no encryption (no supplicant).

I saw these exceptions below.  The warn-on hits the !stopped check in ath_stoprecv.

The system didn't crash, but all of the STAs soon dis-associated because of "inactivity".
I haven't checked if that is some issue with my AP or what..


bool ath_stoprecv(struct ath_softc *sc)
{
	struct ath_hw *ah = sc->sc_ah;
	bool stopped;

	spin_lock_bh(&sc->rx.rxbuflock);
	ath9k_hw_stoppcurecv(ah);
	ath9k_hw_setrxfilter(ah, 0);
	stopped = ath9k_hw_stopdmarecv(ah);

	if (sc->sc_ah->caps.hw_caps & ATH9K_HW_CAP_EDMA)
		ath_edma_stop_recv(sc);
	else
		sc->rx.rxlink = NULL;
	spin_unlock_bh(&sc->rx.rxbuflock);

	WARN_ON(!stopped);
	return stopped;
}
