Hi,
Just wondering if "bf=xxx bf_skb=0" warnings printed to console
(ath5k/base.c:ath5k_beacon_send) are normal?
Linux ixp425 2.6.25-rc3 (ARM big-endian), AR5413
iwconfig wlan0 essid $ESSID mode ad-hoc channel $CH
iwconfig wlan0 key restricted $KEY
ifconfig wlan0 up
I understand sc->bbuf->skb is never set, the only possible place is
ath5k_beacon_update() but it's never called.

yes, that's normal and harmless. i haven't got around to make a smarter
solution yet.
that's because we call ath5k_beacon_config() each time after a channel is set
or the chip is reset, even if the beacon has not been configured yet.
we should fix that at some point.
