Hi,

I bought two week ago a D-Link DWL-G630 wireless card for my laptop
hoping it would be supported by -current. The card is based on a ralink
chipset, here is the full dmesg: 

 cardbus0: CIS pointer is 0x601
 cardbus0: CIS in BAR 0x10
 cardbus0: Expecting link target, got 0x0
 ral0: <Ralink Technology RT2561> mem 0x88000000-0x88007fff at device 0.0 on cardbus0
 ral0: MAC/BBP RT2661B, RF RT2527
 ral0: Ethernet address: 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
[NdA: the CIS information are not really long compared to other cardbus
I use]

As you can see, the ral(4) device attach correctly, then, I played
with ifconfig' option and the crash occured when I launched the
following command:

# ifconfig ral0 media OFDM24
(the crash also occured before when I specified 'OFDM54')

After the computer rebooted, I got the following crash dump:

The crash seems to be triggered at the beginning of
ieee80211_free_node() in /usr/src/sys/net80211/ieee80211_node.c which is
called from rt2661_tx_intri() with ni = NULL.

1594 void
1595 #ifdef IEEE80211_DEBUG_REFCNT
1596 ieee80211_free_node_debug(struct ieee80211_node *ni, const char *func, int line)
1597 #else
1598 ieee80211_free_node(struct ieee80211_node *ni)
1599 #endif
1600 {
1601         struct ieee80211_node_table *nt = ni->ni_table;
1602 

I can provided a crash dump if needed.

Arnaud

ps: could you please add me in CC: when you reply, I didn't follow
