With the following patch applied, plus libnl 1.1, and git hostapd... unencrypted AP --> success; WAP --> segfault A quick strace shows that the segfault appears some time after receiving a message from the netlink socket. More strange though: in case the wlan interface is within a bridge interface (knowing that the "primary" interface of the bridge is not the wlan interface itself, but another Ethernet card on the same machine), the segfault does NOT occur. Instead, I get this ad vitam aeternam in hostapd's stdout output: ---- 209603485.139742: Failed to set CTS protect in kernel driver 1209603485.139869: Failed to set Short Slot Time option in kernel driver 1209603485.139909: Could not set preamble for kernel driver 1209603485.478903: wlan0: STA 00:15:00:35:12:e0 IEEE 802.11: authenticated 1209603485.480120: Failed to set CTS protect in kernel driver 1209603485.480169: Failed to set Short Slot Time option in kernel driver 1209603485.480328: Could not set preamble for kernel driver 1209603485.482510: wlan0: STA 00:15:00:35:12:e0 IEEE 802.11: associated (aid 1, accounting session 48191554-00000009) Could not set station 00:15:00:35:12:e0 flags for kernel driver (errno=22).
