Hi,

We have been getting some segmentation faults on the hostapds that we are 
using with madwifi driver. I have found that this is because of the fact 
that session timeouts are not being cancelled although the stations are 
freed. I added

eloop_cancel_timeout(ap_handle_session_timer, hapd, sta);

to the ap_free_sta function in sta_info.c and that fixed the issue. I am no 
longer getting seg. faults. (Also you will need to declare 
eloop_cancel_timeout somewhere before ap_free_sta)

Thanks,
Ahmet
