Subject: [PATCH] net:wireless: call cfg80211_stop_ap when switch from P2P_GO type
Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2021 01:29:32 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211027172932.774040-1-phind.uet@gmail.com> (raw)

If the userspace tools switch from NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO to
NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC via send_msg(NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE), it
does not call the cleanup cfg80211_stop_ap(), this leads to the
initialization of in-use data. For example, this path re-init the
sdata->assigned_chanctx_list while it is still an element of 
assigned_vifs list, and makes that linked list corrupt.
