From 3092ad054406f069991ca561adc74f2d9fbb6867 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zhu Yi Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 15:58:57 +0800 Subject: mac80211: fix NULL pointer dereference when ftrace is enabled I got below kernel oops when I try to bring down the network interface if ftrace is enabled. The root cause is drv_ampdu_action() is passed with a NULL ssn pointer in the BA session tear down case. We need to check and avoid dereferencing it in trace entry assignment.

The scan requests are deferred and run after the work has completed. When this occurs there are currently two problems. * The scan request for hardware scan is not fully populated with the band and channels to scan not initialized. * When the scan is queued the state is not correctly updated to reflect that a scan is in progress. The problem here is that when the driver completes the scan and calls ieee80211_scan_completed() a warning will be triggered since mac80211 was not aware that a scan was in progress. The reason is that the queued scan work will start the hw scan right away when the hw_scan_req struct has already been allocated. However, in the first pass it will not have been filled, which happens at the same time as setting the bits. To fix this, simply move the allocation after the pending work test as well, so that the first iteration of the scan work will call __ieee80211_start_scan() even in the hardware scan case.
