Hey,
Seems to be some problem with 2.6.14 and our beloved NetworkManager.
See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5363
I hit a similar, but perhaps not related, segfault. Hand copied:
SIGSEGV
_int_free ()
free ()
nm_dispose_scan_results ()
nm_device_new ()
nm_create_device_and_add_to_list ()
nm_add_initial_devices ()
nm_hal_init ()
main ()
See it on 2.6.14-rc3, not on 2.6.13.3.
Glibc is not very verbose, but the bug seems to be that we are freeing
an invalid pointer from the scan list (results.data).
I stuck some printf()'s in there, and the pointers all look fine. It is
the third or fourth pointer in the scan list that causes the crash.
I was a little weary since the capability patch just went in, but
nm_dispose_scan_results() was not touched (although where we call it
was).
My money is more on iwlib than the kernel -- e.g., perhaps a change in
kernel behavior is triggering bad iwlib behavior.
