-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there,
I'll apologise now, this is the first kernel-related issue i've ever experienced, so I may be doing this wrong or missing something :). I recently downloaded and compiled 2.6.20-rc1 and set it up nicely with my zd1211 card (Addon ADD-GWU180) and now the kernel oops's on boot in normal mode, or when issuing "iwconfig eth1 essid essid_name" in recovery mode. From the information it spews out at the time, it looks like possibly a ieee80211softmac issue, but it doesn't happen with an rt2570 card, and I thought it best to check with you first. Hopefully all the information you need is included below, if not, i'll be happy to provide anything else you need. Thanks in advance. ===== Linux chris-desktop 2.6.20-rc1 #1 Fri Dec 15 13:06:19 GMT 2006 i686 GNU/Linux Dec 15 16:01:08 will kernel: [ 47.815795] zd1211rw 4-1:1.0: firmware version 4605 Dec 15 16:01:08 will kernel: [ 47.857722] zd1211rw 4-1:1.0: zd1211 chip 07b8:6001 v4802 high 00-12-0e RF2959_RF pa0 g--- Dec 15 16:01:08 will kernel: [ 47.860316] zd1211rw 4-1:1.0: eth1 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.280263] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000006 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.280382] printing eip: Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.280421] c02fd4c1 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.280422] *pde = 00000000 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.280464] Oops: 0002 [#1] Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.280503] Modules linked in: ipv6 video button battery container ac asus_acpi sg sd_mod vfat fat dm_mod af_packet capability commoncap cryptoloop loop fuse asb100 hwmon_vid eeprom sr_mod sbp2 lp arc4 ecb blkcipher ieee80211_crypt_wep joydev tsdev zd1211rw ieee80211softmac ieee80211 ieee80211_crypt snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec usb_storage ac97_bus snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss usbhid serio_raw floppy snd_pcm snd_timer sis900 mii sis_agp parport_pc parport shpchp pci_hotplug evdev agpgart snd soundcore i2c_sis96x analog psmouse i2c_core rtc snd_page_alloc gameport pcspkr ext3 jbd mbcache ehci_hcd ide_generic ohci_hcd usbcore ohci1394 ieee1394 ide_cd cdrom ide_disk sis5513 generic thermal processor fan Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283456] CPU: 0 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283457] EIP: 0060:[__mutex_lock_slowpath+33/112] Not tainted VLI Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283459] EFLAGS: 00010282 (2.6.20-rc1 #1) Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283620] EIP is at __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x21/0x70 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283674] eax: ffffffff ebx: eb0c89dc ecx: 00000000 edx: 00000006 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283730] esi: eb0c8a40 edi: dfff5030 ebp: eb0c89e0 esp: effc5ee0 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283786] ds: 007b es: 007b ss: 0068 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283839] Process events/0 (pid: 3, ti=effc4000 task=dfff5030 task.ti=effc4000) Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.283895] Stack: eb0c89e0 00000000 00000092 eb0c89dc eb0c8a40 00000000 f0a2b3a0 c02fd3e3 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.284267] eb0c8a40 f0a2aec1 00000000 00000000 eb0c8a40 00000000 00000000 00000000 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.284638] eb0c89dc eb0c89a0 effe36d8 00000000 00000082 00000000 eb0c8a40 00000000 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285009] Call Trace: Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285116] [<f0a2b3a0>] ieee80211softmac_assoc_notify_scan+0x0/0x10 [ieee80211softmac] Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285230] [mutex_lock+19/32] mutex_lock+0x13/0x20 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285321] [<f0a2aec1>] ieee80211softmac_assoc_work+0x21/0x500 [ieee80211softmac] Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285458] [<f0a2b3a0>] ieee80211softmac_assoc_notify_scan+0x0/0x10 [ieee80211softmac] Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285566] [<f0a2b92f>] ieee80211softmac_notify_callback+0x2f/0x50 [ieee80211softmac] Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285680] [<f0a2b900>] ieee80211softmac_notify_callback+0x0/0x50 [ieee80211softmac] Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285786] [run_workqueue+154/352] run_workqueue+0x9a/0x160 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285899] [worker_thread+327/368] worker_thread+0x147/0x170 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.285992] [__wake_up_common+57/96] __wake_up_common+0x39/0x60 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.286092] [default_wake_function+0/16] default_wake_function+0x0/0x10 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.286196] [worker_thread+0/368] worker_thread+0x0/0x170 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.286285] [kthread+168/224] kthread+0xa8/0xe0 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.286378] [kthread+0/224] kthread+0x0/0xe0 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.286472] [kernel_thread_helper+7/20] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x14 Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.286575] ======================= Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.286625] Code: 40 08 e9 33 d4 e1 ff 8d 76 00 55 57 56 53 89 c3 8d 68 04 83 ec 0c 8b 55 04 b8 ff ff ff ff 65 8b 3d 08 00 00 00 89 2c 24 89 65 04 <89> 22 89 54 24 04 89 7c 24 08 87 03 83 e8 01 74 19 be ff ff ff Dec 15 14:11:40 will kernel: [ 75.288901] EIP: [__mutex_lock_slowpath+33/112] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x21/0x70 SS:ESP 0068:effc5ee0 Bus 004 Device 002: ID 07b8:6001 D-Link Corp.
