           Summary: hostap modules broken for WPA on collie image
           Product: Openembedded
           Version: OpenZaurus 3.5.4.x
          Platform: ARM
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: Distributions
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
         QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Installing a WCF12 Wireless Card from Linksys works normally with orinoco_cs
(orinoco_cs has no WPA support). 

Configuring the use of hostap_cs modules from the opie/collie image causes
strange behaviors. Installed hostap modules are from package
hostap-modules-2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix (0.4.7-r4).

After the modules being up, any command that scans the interfaces like ifconfig
or iwconfig terminate with 'segmentation fault' when trying to show wlan0 or
wifi0:

--
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

irda0     no wireless extensions.

sit0      no wireless extensions.

usbd0     no wireless extensions.

irda1     no wireless extensions.

Segmentation fault 
--

The terminal does not return after that and not even kill -9 can terminate the
'iwconfig' running on this shell.
The same happens with any direct command to configure the wlan0 interface.

dmesg and klogd start repeating this message:

--
wifi0: LinkStatus=6 (Association failed)
wifi0: LinkStatus: BSSID=44:44:44:44:44:44
wifi0: TXEXC - status=0x0004 ([Discon]) tx_control=000c
   retry_count=0 tx_rate=0 fc=0x0108 (Data::0 ToDS)
   A1=44:44:44:44:44:44 A2=00:0f:66:10:03:a7 A3=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
A4=00:00:00:00:00:00
wifi0: TXEXC - status=0x0004 ([Discon]) tx_control=000c
   retry_count=0 tx_rate=0 fc=0x0108 (Data::0 ToDS)
   A1=44:44:44:44:44:44 A2=00:0f:66:10:03:a7 A3=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
A4=00:00:00:00:00:00

hostap modules from the gpe/collie (hostap-modules-2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix 
0.3.9-r7) image works correctly with no "Segmentation Fault"s but don't have
WPA support enabled.
WPA support it's stated on the 3.5.4 release notes to be working on all images.

expected behavior: hostap-modules-2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix (0.4.7-r4) should
work correclty and permit it's use with wpa_supplicant, wpa and tkip.
