So what exactly happened here? What does this failure tell us?
Probably nothing.
Is the LKP test broken or did I overlook something in the kernel patch?
I think the test is just randomly fluking out.
How does LKP make use of NL80211_ATTR_REG_ALPHA2?
I'm struggling to find any mention of 'hostapd.py' or 'ap_country' in LKP [0]. Are these benchmarks bespoke add-ons?
it's running the tests from hostap: https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/tree/tests/hwsim
Anyway, I think we'd better fix the issue like this:
- [NL80211_ATTR_REG_ALPHA2] = { .type = NLA_STRING, .len = 2 }, + /* allow 3 for NUL-termination, we used to declare this NLA_STRING */ + [NL80211_ATTR_REG_ALPHA2] = NLA_POLICY_RANGE(NLA_BINARY, 2, 3),
What do you think?
