Hello,

I have tried to upgrade my wireless AP (Raspberry Pi with rt2x00usb)
from v5.9 to the current mainline, but now it keeps crashing every hour
or so, basically making my wireless network unusable.

I have bisected this to:

commit 03c3911d2d67a43ad4ffd15b534a5905d6ce5c59
Author: Ryder Lee <ryder.lee@mediatek.com>
Date:   Thu Jun 17 18:31:12 2021 +0200

    mac80211: call ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl() when dequeue

With the previous commit the system stays up for weeks...

I just tried today's mainline, and it crashed after 10 minutes:

Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking.

CCing regression mailing list, which should be in the loop for all
regressions, as explained here:

TWIMC: To be sure this issue doesn't fall through the cracks unnoticed,
I'm adding it to regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot:

#regzbot ^introduced 03c3911d2d67a43ad4ffd15b534a5905d6ce5c59
#regzbot title wireless AP (Raspberry Pi with rt2x00usb) crashes every
hour or so
#regzbot ignore-activity

Ciao, Thorsten, your Linux kernel regression tracker.


P.S.: If you want to know more about regzbot, check out its
web-interface, the getting start guide, and/or the references documentation:

https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot/
https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/getting_started.md
https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/reference.md

The last two documents will explain how you can interact with regzbot
yourself if your want to.

Hint for the reporter: when reporting a regression it's in your interest
to tell #regzbot about it in the report, as that will ensure the
regression gets on the radar of regzbot and the regression tracker.
That's in your interest, as they will make sure the report won't fall
through the cracks unnoticed.

Hint for developers: you normally don't need to care about regzbot, just
fix the issue as you normally would. Just remember to include a 'Link:'
tag to the report in the commit message, as explained in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
That aspect was recently was made more explicit in commit 1f57bd42b77c:
