Comment (by b4u68k):
Hello,
I get a Segmentation fault when removing the module 'ath_pci', by using
either 'rmmod' or 'modprobe -r'. The interface ath0 is first brought down
before unloading 'ath_pci'.
Then the system hangs on shutdown after the following messages:
'Killing all remaining processes...Failed.'
'Deconfiguring network interfaces...'
The OS is Debian sid with kernel 2.6.24 running on Asus EEE PC, and r2756
patched with madwifi-ng-0933.ar2425.20071130.i386.patch.
I'd like to post the segfault log (which only shows when 'modprobe -r
ath_pci' is done in the "root terminal" before starting X, not in terminal
emulators) but I can't record it (even with /usr/bin/script). I didn't
find anything in /var/log/* neither.
Here's a testcase which leads to the segfault:
1) boot with wifi led turned of ('echo 0 > /proc/acpi/asus/wlan' before
reboot)
2) login root without starting X
3) load pciehp module with option pciehp_force=1 ('modprobe pcihep
pciehp_force=1')
4) turn on wifi: 'echo 1 > /proc/acpi/asus/wlan'
5) load ath_pci module: 'modprobe ath_pci'
6) remove ath_pci module: 'modprobe -r ath_pci' (Segmentation fault)
I can provide more if needed, thanks in advance for any help
