Hi,

i got a Kernel-Warning when using mt7615/mt7622 (mt7915 also reported, but not tested by me yet) in Mesh-Mode:

i have applied this Patch to get mesh basicly working (ping works - only this warning shows up):

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20211007225725.2615-1-vincent@systemli.org/#24506297

configuration is basicly this:

iw phy phy0 interface add mesh0 type mp
ip addr add 192.168.80.1/24 dev mesh0
./wpa_supplicant -i mesh0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/meshpoint.conf &

where config is this:

user_mpm=1
network={
	ssid="bpi-mesh"
	mode=5
	frequency=2412
	key_mgmt=NONE
}

as far as i have debugged it happens here:

https://github.com/frank-w/BPI-R2-4.14/blob/b61ad126d9da67a52fa395215dc3a4219ff58121/net/core/flow_dissector.c#L984

all 3 possible sources of net are NULL when this happens

[  104.656046] DEBUG: Passed __skb_flow_dissect 975 skb:0xc5ad9540 net:0x0
[  104.662738] DEBUG: Passed __skb_flow_dissect 977 skb-dev:0x0,skb-sk:0x0

possible flow as far as i've debugged (most in flow_dissector.c):

__skb_get_hash() => ___skb_get_hash() => skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys() (include/linux/skbuff.h) => __skb_flow_dissect(NULL, skb,...)

so net have to be always taken from the skb, either from skb->dev or skb->sk, both are NULL, so i need to know where the problematic skb is created

from trace i do not see where net/skb-dev is set :(

based on some similar bugs i've found i tried to change this in drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mcu.c mt76_mcu_msg_alloc:

-       skb = alloc_skb(length, GFP_KERNEL);
+       skb = netdev_alloc_skb(&dev->napi_dev,length);

without success.

crash happens on first device when connection is established, on second when starting ping (which works)

i got Information that this trace is not there in openwrt master, but have not yet found out why.

more infos here:
https://forum.banana-pi.org/t/solved-bpi-r64-mesh-802-11s-on-internal-wifi-card-mt7622av/12610/51?u=frank-w

have anyone an idea why this happens and how to fix it?
