Andrew,
I would like to confirm that issue with netdevice name corruption is still present in 2.6.18-rc6-mm1 and extremely easy to reproduce (at least on my system) with 100% hit rate.
All I have to do is 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop'. And here we go:
Sep 8 22:50:11 nickolas kernel: [events/1:7]: Changing netdevice name from [ath0] to [\200^C^Bб\206]
Does not look like an userspace issue at all...
Last kernel which is known to be working (for me) is 2.6.18-rc1-mm2. Sorry, I now that a lot of things had changed since then, but I was somewhat busy last couple of months...
Please let me know if I can help somehow to debug it.
Thank you, Nick Orlov.
P.S. I admit that I'm using "binary only atheros driver" which makes this report a lot less legit. But seems like people experiencing the very same issue w/o any closed-source drivers loaded...
P.P.S I don't even have NetworkManager executable on my system (Debian unstable updated on daily basis), so NetworkManager have nothing to do with it.
-- With best wishes, Nick Orlov.
