Your mail wasn't refused for the rt2x00-users mailinglist, we have a filter that prevents non-subscribed members from sending mails to it.
Luis and myself are administrating the list, so your mails were approoved, but we forgot to press the button to allow all your mails
to the list to be accepted. :)

Good luck. :)

Sorry I thought that hibernation/resume was supported.

By generating your own kernel with MEMLEAK enabled, you should be able to see
which data blob is being leaked. If you post that info, someone on this list
should be able to help you find the cause.

I will enable this feature so that next time it happens I will have such information.
However looks like bug is not triggering unless I first do a resume.
Thank you both for reviewing my logs and for the pointers.

Actually the rt2x00-users list is not intended for the Ralink staging drivers.
You have to use the staging mailing list: [email protected]
Ivo
You appear to have two issues - (1) the driver doesn't
hibernate/resume well, (2) there is some bad memory leak which causes
your system to run out of memory.
You did not mention issue (1) - that you were hibernating and resuming
(and expecting it to work, which it does not). For the latter, you
probably need to track down where the memory is leaking in the driver,
which is probably easier than tracking down the hibernate/resume
issue.
Good luck with tracking down the memory leak. (you do understand that
staging drivers are DIY - i.e. you try it only if you are willing to
look into fixing it yourself - I hope )

Yes, they refused my message but didn't tell anything about the staging mailing list which I couldn't find either and I am now reading from you. Many thanks for pointing this out.
I am now running with MEMLEAK enabled, as soon as I will make a new "hammering session" I'll grab the debug data and post another message.

Well,
to set the record straight I did reply privately to tell that staging
isn't our business.
But my fault was not to point out the correct mailing list for staging.
I hope that my apology is accepted.

Of course it is Luis, perhaps I have been a bit irrational in my reply but this is what happened:
* website didn't give a bugtracker URL
* SF.net project was seemingly dead, or more probably I didn't find the new one
* I registered to forums and my registration required manual activation by some admin (a growing climax...)
* I finally wrote to the apparently correct mailing list (I was sure to have read somewhere that it offered support also for the staging driver!), and my message was refused for exceeding size and for not being on topic
At that point, even not being exactly a newbie, I was lost and a bit frustrated. Perhaps you can review the information flow to allow people reach more easily the interesting areas, or perhaps it was just a bad day for me.
Thanks for the correctness of all of you which have replied.
Best regards,
