Hi Dani, Johannes,
I was able to reproduce your issue with latest version of wireless-testing
and wmediumd.
The problem is that txi->rate_driver_data[0] is not set on
hwsim_tx_info_frame_received_nl(). Later mac80211_hwsim_monitor_ack()
crashes while accessing that information.
I'm preparing a patch to fix this.
