If the station is then removed before the restart adds it back, this return skips the only cancel_work_sync() and rtw_sta_rc_work() could run on a freed station. Moving the check below cancel_work_sync() should be enough. [ ... ] > kfree(si->mask); > + si->mask = NULL; As far as I can see si->use_cfg_mask stays set here. mac80211 keeps the same station across the restart, and when it adds it back, rtw_sta_add() calls rtw_update_sta_info(), which gets to this: rtw_rate_mask_cfg() if (!si->use_cfg_mask) return ra_mask; ... cfg_mask = mask->control[band].legacy; So if I read it right, for a station that got a bitrate mask, a recovery now ends in a NULL pointer dereference, where before it read the freed mask. Maybe clear si->use_cfg_mask together with si->mask? The mask is then dropped after a recovery, since mac80211 doesn't pass it down again on restart, but I think that is fine. Best regards, Luka Gejak
