Or if you're not world roaming.. this is really bad, we alloc all those
beacon hint structs just to not do anything with them, I wonder if they
even get leaked or added to reg_beacon_list (but that's about the same)
This is pretty much a mess. Luis?

Ok, it was quite a while ago..maybe I was hitting other upstream bugs or
bugs of my own.
For what it's worth, I haven't noticed my WARN_ON hitting.
I'll drop this patch from my tree.

Ah, no, I get it. It is related to your many interfaces :-)
The thing is that when a beacon comes in it schedules a work item, and
that work item only sets the beacon_found to true. Now since you have a
ton of interfaces each beacon can be processed many times, and you get a
ton of work items, and ... ouch.
Not sure how the locking works here so can't really suggest a fix right
now.

It was busted...new patch sent, and the new one was freshly tested and
appears to work as desired.

As explained below indeed you should only see this once for one channel
even if your box has a billion interfaces, but Johannes is right that we
won't be able to reap benefits of the check that annotates this was an
already established beacon hint until the work item gets processed and
since its a scheduled task we can potentially alloc quite a lot of beacon
hints for the same channel if you have a lot of interfaces.
I'll post a patch for this, please test.

Indeed, we don't annotate the beacon hint as found if we are not world
roaming. I'll look to annotate this, patch to follow after the first one.

We get beacon hints added to the reg_beacon_list if the channel fits
the area where we allow it given that we allow for future devices to
pop up and we want them to learn from the exisitng device's information.
We can certainly change this if we want.

In an earlier version of this code, testing found that sometimes
either sta wasn't found or sta->sdata was NULL. This caused
crashes of course. So, add checks with WARN_ON_ONCE to
catch these.

Why not just disable the config option for it if you don't care?

Quite likely, since I think it's supposed to happen only once for each
channel unless you reset the regulatory (but that would cause more
messages? I think?)

I don't mind seeing it, just don't want thousands of them in my logs
in a very short amount of time. Maybe I was just hitting some
other bug, and there is no valid reason for this to ever spam?

This allows user-space (wpa_supplicant) to disable
short guard interval (SGI) for 20Mhz. The SGI-40
disable option is already handled.

I don't know what you tested, but there's absolutely no way that
sta->sdata is NULL... *Especially* not after sta_info_get_bss(), I mean,
look at that function. But once it's on the list it can't be NULL, so
I'm not going to apply this patch.
In the future, I'd appreciate if you could avoid avoid sending patches
for drivers and mac80211 etc. in one series, it gets confusing with who
applies what etc.

I thought it was working, but perhaps I was wrong. I will re-test.
