driver core: dev_get_drvdata: Don't check for NULL dev There is no point in calling dev_get_drvdata without a valid device. So checking for dev == NULL is pointless. If such a check is ever needed - which I doubt - the driver should do it before calling dev_get_drvdata. We were returning NULL if dev was NULL, which the caller certainly did not expect anyway, so that was only delaying the crash if the caller is not paying attention.

drivercore: deferral race condition fix When the kernel is built with CONFIG_PREEMPT it is possible to reach a state when all modules loaded but some driver still stuck in the deferred list and there is a need for external event to kick the deferred queue to probe these drivers. The issue has been observed on embedded systems with CONFIG_PREEMPT enabled, audio support built as modules and using nfsroot for root filesystem. The following log fragment shows such sequence when all audio modules were loaded but the sound card is not present since the machine driver has failed to probe due to missing dependency during it's probe. The board is am335x-evmsk (McASP<->tlv320aic3106 codec) with davinci-evm machine driver: ... [ 12.615118] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: ENTER [ 12.719969] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: ENTER [ 12.725753] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: snd_soc_register_card [ 12.753846] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: snd_soc_register_component [ 12.922051] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: snd_soc_register_component DONE [ 12.950839] davinci_evm sound.3: ASoC: platform (null) not registered [ 12.957898] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: snd_soc_register_card DONE (-517) [ 13.099026] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: Kicking the deferred list [ 13.177838] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: really_probe: probe_count = 2 [ 13.194130] davinci_evm sound.3: snd_soc_register_card failed (-517) [ 13.346755] davinci_mcasp_driver_init: LEAVE [ 13.377446] platform sound.3: Driver davinci_evm requests probe deferral [ 13.592527] platform sound.3: really_probe: probe_count = 0 In the log the machine driver enters it's probe at 12.719969 (this point it has been removed from the deferred lists). McASP driver already executing it's probing (since 12.615118). The machine driver tries to construct the sound card (12.950839) but did not found one of the components so it fails. After this McASP driver registers all the ASoC components (the machine driver still in it's probe function after it failed to construct the card) and the deferred work is prepared at 13.099026 (note that this time the machine driver is not in the lists so it is not going to be handled when the work is executing). Lastly the machine driver exit from it's probe and the core places it to the deferred list but there will be no other driver going to load and the deferred queue is not going to be kicked again - till we have external event like connecting USB stick, etc. The proposed solution is to try the deferred queue once more when the last driver is asking for deferring and we had drivers loaded while this last driver was probing. This way we can avoid drivers stuck in the deferred queue.

PM / runtime: Use pm_runtime_put_sync() in __device_release_driver() Commit fa180eb448fa (PM / Runtime: Idle devices asynchronously after probe|release) modified __device_release_driver() to call pm_runtime_put(dev) instead of pm_runtime_put_sync(dev) before detaching the driver from the device. However, that was a mistake, because pm_runtime_put(dev) causes rpm_idle() to be queued up and the driver may be gone already when that function is executed. That breaks the assumptions the drivers have the right to make about the core's behavior on the basis of the existing documentation and actually causes problems to happen, so revert that part of commit fa180eb448fa and restore the previous behavior of __device_release_driver().

drivercore: Fix ordering between deferred_probe and exiting initcalls One of the side effects of deferred probe is that some drivers which used to be probed before initcalls completed are now happening slightly later. This causes two problems. - If a console driver gets deferred, then it may not be ready when userspace starts. For example, if a uart depends on pinctrl, then the uart will get deferred and /dev/console will not be available - __init sections will be discarded before built-in drivers are probed. Strictly speaking, __init functions should not be called in a drivers __probe path, but there are a lot of drivers (console stuff again) that do anyway. In the past it was perfectly safe to do so because all built-in drivers got probed before the end of initcalls. This patch fixes the problem by forcing the first pass of the deferred list to complete at late_initcall time. This is late enough to catch the drivers that are known to have the above issues.

drivers/pinctrl: grab default handles from device core This makes the device core auto-grab the pinctrl handle and set the "default" (PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT) state for every device that is present in the device model right before probe. This will account for the lion's share of embedded silicon devcies. A modification of the semantics for pinctrl_get() is also done: previously if the pinctrl handle for a certain device was already taken, the pinctrl core would return an error. Now, since the core may have already default-grabbed the handle and set its state to "default", if the handle was already taken, this will be disregarded and the located, previously instanitated handle will be returned to the caller. This way all code in drivers explicitly requesting their pinctrl handlers will still be functional, and drivers that want to explicitly retrieve and switch their handles can still do that. But if the desired functionality is just boilerplate of this type in the probe() function: struct pinctrl *p; p = devm_pinctrl_get_select_default(&dev); if (IS_ERR(p)) { if (PTR_ERR(p) == -EPROBE_DEFER) return -EPROBE_DEFER; dev_warn(&dev, "no pinctrl handle\n"); } The discussion began with the addition of such boilerplate to the omap4 keypad driver: http://marc.info/?l=linux-input&m=135091157719300&w=2 A previous approach using notifiers was discussed: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=135263661110528&w=2 This failed because it could not handle deferred probes. This patch alone does not solve the entire dilemma faced: whether code should be distributed into the drivers or if it should be centralized to e.g. a PM domain. But it solves the immediate issue of the addition of boilerplate to a lot of drivers that just want to grab the default state. As mentioned, they can later explicitly retrieve the handle and set different states, and this could as well be done by e.g. PM domains as it is only related to a certain struct device * pointer. ChangeLog v4->v5 (Stephen): - Simplified the devicecore grab code. - Deleted a piece of documentation recommending that pins be mapped to a device rather than hogged. ChangeLog v3->v4 (Linus): - Drop overzealous NULL checks. - Move kref initialization to pinctrl_create(). - Seeking Tested-by from Stephen Warren so we do not disturb the Tegra platform. - Seeking ACK on this from Greg (and others who like it) so I can merge it through the pinctrl subsystem. ChangeLog v2->v3 (Linus): - Abstain from using IS_ERR_OR_NULL() in the driver core, Russell recently sent a patch to remove it. Handle the NULL case explicitly even though it's a bogus case. - Make sure we handle probe deferral correctly in the device core file. devm_kfree() the container on error so we don't waste memory for devices without pinctrl handles. - Introduce reference counting into the pinctrl core using <linux/kref.h> so that we don't release pinctrl handles that have been obtained for two or more places. ChangeLog v1->v2 (Linus): - Only store a pointer in the device struct, and only allocate this if it's really used by the device.

Make wait_for_device_probe() also do scsi_complete_async_scans() Commit a7a20d103994 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain") make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async domain. However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes the global async space, not all of them). Which in turn meant that "wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be parsed. And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on for mounting the root filesystem. Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd. So the root filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all. And then before they actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans(). [ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken, but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d0137 ("fix async probe regression"), so that same commit a7a20d103994 had actually broken setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ] Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call into wait_for_device_probe(). Everybody who wants to wait for device probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's no reason not to do this. So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and properly waits for device probing to finish. This also removes the now unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().

PM / Runtime: Do not increment device usage counts before probing The pm_runtime_get_noresume() calls before really_probe() and before executing __device_attach() for each driver on the device's bus cause problems to happen if probing fails and if the driver has enabled runtime PM for the device in its .probe() callback. Namely, in that case, if the device has been resumed by the driver after enabling its runtime PM and if it turns out that .probe() should return an error, the driver is supposed to suspend the device and disable its runtime PM before exiting .probe(). However, because the device's runtime PM usage counter was incremented by the core before calling .probe(), the driver's attempt to suspend the device will not succeed and the device will remain in the full-power state after the failing .probe() has returned. To fix this issue, remove the pm_runtime_get_noresume() calls from driver_probe_device() and from device_attach() and replace the corresponding pm_runtime_put_sync() calls with pm_runtime_idle() to preserve the existing behavior (which is to check if the device is idle and to suspend it eventually in that case after probing).

driver core: Move deferred devices to the end of dpm_list before probing When deferred probe was originally added the idea was that devices which defer their probes would move themselves to the end of dpm_list in order to try to keep the assumptions that we're making about the list being in roughly the order things should be suspended correct. However this hasn't been what's been happening and doing it requires a lot of duplicated code to do the moves. Instead take a simple, brute force solution and have the deferred probe code push devices to the end of dpm_list before it retries the probe. This does mean we lock the dpm_list a bit more often but it's very simple and the code shouldn't be a fast path. We do the move with the deferred mutex dropped since doing things with fewer locks held simultaneously seems like a good idea. This approach was most recently suggested by Grant Likely.

drivercore: Add driver probe deferral mechanism Allow drivers to report at probe time that they cannot get all the resources required by the device, and should be retried at a later time. This should completely solve the problem of getting devices initialized in the right order. Right now this is mostly handled by mucking about with initcall ordering which is a complete hack, and doesn't even remotely handle the case where device drivers are in modules. This approach completely sidesteps the issues by allowing driver registration to occur in any order, and any driver can request to be retried after a few more other drivers get probed. v4: - Integrate Manjunath's addition of a separate workqueue - Change -EAGAIN to -EPROBE_DEFER for drivers to trigger deferral - Update comment blocks to reflect how the code really works v3: - Hold off workqueue scheduling until late_initcall so that the bulk of driver probes are complete before we start retrying deferred devices. - Tested with simple use cases. Still needs more testing though. Using it to get rid of the gpio early_initcall madness, or to replace the ASoC internal probe deferral code would be ideal. v2: - added locking so it should no longer be utterly broken in that regard - remove device from deferred list at device_del time. - Still completely untested with any real use case, but has been boot tested.

PM / Runtime: Rework runtime PM handling during driver removal The driver core tries to prevent race conditions between runtime PM and driver removal from happening by incrementing the runtime PM usage counter of the device and executing pm_runtime_barrier() before running the bus notifier and the ->remove() callbacks provided by the device's subsystem or driver. This guarantees that, if a future runtime suspend of the device has been scheduled or a runtime resume or idle request has been queued up right before the driver removal, it will be canceled or waited for to complete and no other asynchronous runtime suspend or idle requests for the device will be put into the PM workqueue until the ->remove() callback returns. However, it doesn't prevent resume requests from being queued up after pm_runtime_barrier() has been called and it doesn't prevent pm_runtime_resume() from executing the device subsystem's runtime resume callback. Morever, it prevents the device's subsystem or driver from putting the device into the suspended state by calling pm_runtime_suspend() from its ->remove() routine. This turns out to be a major inconvenience for some subsystems and drivers that want to leave the devices they handle in the suspended state. To really prevent runtime PM callbacks from racing with the bus notifier callback in __device_release_driver(), which is necessary, because the notifier is used by some subsystems to carry out operations affecting the runtime PM functionality, use pm_runtime_get_sync() instead of the combination of pm_runtime_get_noresume() and pm_runtime_barrier(). This will resume the device if it's in the suspended state and will prevent it from being suspended again until pm_runtime_put_*() is called. To allow subsystems and drivers to put devices into the suspended state by calling pm_runtime_suspend() from their ->remove() routines, execute pm_runtime_put_sync() after running the bus notifier in __device_release_driver(). This will require subsystems and drivers to make their ->remove() callbacks avoid races with runtime PM directly, but it will allow of more flexibility in the handling of devices during the removal of their drivers.

driver core: let dev_set_drvdata return int instead of void as it can fail Before commit b402843 (Driver core: move dev_get/set_drvdata to drivers/base/dd.c) calling dev_set_drvdata with dev=NULL was an unchecked error.

driver-core: fix race between device_register and driver_register When a device is registered to a bus it will be a) added to the list of devices of the bus and b) bind to a driver (if one matches). As a result of a driver being registered at this bus between a) and b) this device could already be bound to a driver. This leads to a warning and incorrect refcounting. To fix this add a check to device_attach to identify an already bound device. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Ott <sebott@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Driver core: Add BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER Add BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER as a bus notifier event. For driver binding/unbinding we with this in place have the following bus notifier events: - BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER - before ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER - after ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBIND_DRIVER - before ->remove() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER - after ->remove() The event BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER allows bus code to be notified that ->probe() is about to be called. Useful for bus code that needs to setup hardware before the driver gets to run. With this in place platform drivers can be loaded and unloaded as modules and the new BIND event allows bus code to control for instance device clocks that must be enabled before the driver can be executed. Without this patch there is no way for the bus code to get notified that a modular driver is about to be probed.

driver synchronization: make scsi_wait_scan more advanced There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers were loaded before the module load are present. Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take into account at all that probing might not have begun yet. (Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him) This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml): The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

driver core: check bus->match without holding device lock This patch moves bus->match out from driver_probe_device and does not hold device lock to check the match between a device and a driver. The idea has been verified by the commit 6cd495860901, which leads to a faster boot. But the commit 6cd495860901 has the following drawbacks: 1),only does the quick check in the path of __driver_attach->driver_probe_device, not in other paths; 2),for a matched device and driver, check the same match twice. It is a waste of cpu ,especially for some drivers with long device id table (eg. usb-storage driver). This patch adds a helper of driver_match_device to check the match in all paths, and testes the match only once.

device model: Do a quickcheck for driver binding before doing an expensive check This patch adds a quick check for the driver<->device match before taking the locks and doin gthe expensive checks. Taking the lock hurts in asynchronous boot context where the device lock gets hit; one of the init functions takes the lock and goes to do an expensive hardware init; the other init functions walk the same PCI list and get stuck on the lock as a result. For the common case, we can know there's no chance whatsoever of a match if the device isn't in the drivers ID table... so this patch does that check as a best-effort-avoid-the-lock approach. Bootcharts for before and after can be seen at http://www.fenrus.org/before.svg http://www.fenrus.org/after.svg Note the long time "agp_ali_init" takes in the first graph; my laptop doesn't even have an ALI chip in it! (the bootgraphs look a bit dissimilar, but that's the point, the first one has a bunch of arbitrary delays in it that cause it to look very different) This reduces my kernel boot time by about 20% Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Driver core: fix race in __device_release_driver This patch (as1013) was suggested by David Woodhouse; it fixes a race in the driver core. If a device is unregistered at the same time as its driver is unloaded, the driver's code pages may be unmapped while the remove method is still running. The calls to get_driver() and put_driver() were intended to prevent this, but they don't work if the driver's module count has already dropped to 0. Instead, the patch keeps the device on the driver's list until after the remove method has returned. This forces the necessary synchronization to occur.

devres: device resource management Implement device resource management, in short, devres. A device driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated with a release function. On driver detach, release function is invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed. devreses are typed by associated release functions. Some devreses are better represented by single instance of the type while others need multiple instances sharing the same release function. Both usages are supported. devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4 ports). This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following managed interfaces. * alloc/free : devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree() * IO region : devm_request_region(), devm_release_region() * IRQ : devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq() * DMA : dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(), dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(), dmam_pool_destroy() * PCI : pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed() * iomap : devm_ioport_map(), devm_ioport_unmap(), devm_ioremap(), devm_ioremap_nocache(), devm_iounmap(), pcim_iomap_table(), pcim_iomap(), pcim_iounmap() Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

driver core: Don't stop probing on ->probe errors. Don't stop on the first ->probe error that is not -ENODEV/-ENXIO. There might be a driver registered returning an unresonable return code, and this stops probing completely even though it may make sense to try the next possible driver. At worst, we may end up with an unbound device. Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Driver core: add notification of bus events I finally did as you suggested and added the notifier to the struct bus_type itself. There are still problems to be expected is something attaches to a bus type where the code can hook in different struct device sub-classes (which is imho a big bogosity but I won't even try to argue that case now) but it will solve nicely a number of issues I've had so far. That also means that clients interested in registering for such notifications have to do it before devices are added and after bus types are registered. Fortunately, most bus types that matter for the various usage scenarios I have in mind are registerd at postcore_initcall time, which means I have a really nice spot at arch_initcall time to add my notifiers. There are 4 notifications provided. Device being added (before hooked to the bus) and removed (failure of previous case or after being unhooked from the bus), along with driver being bound to a device and about to be unbound. The usage I have for these are: - The 2 first ones are used to maintain a struct device_ext that is hooked to struct device.firmware_data. This structure contains for now a pointer to the Open Firmware node related to the device (if any), the NUMA node ID (for quick access to it) and the DMA operations pointers & iommu table instance for DMA to/from this device. For bus types I own (like IBM VIO or EBUS), I just maintain that structure directly from the bus code when creating the devices. But for bus types managed by generic code like PCI or platform (actually, of_platform which is a variation of platform linked to Open Firmware device-tree), I need this notifier. - The other two ones have a completely different usage scenario. I have cases where multiple devices and their drivers depend on each other. For example, the IBM EMAC network driver needs to attach to a MAL DMA engine which is a separate device, and a PHY interface which is also a separate device. They are all of_platform_device's (well, about to be with my upcoming patches) but there is no say in what precise order the core will "probe" them and instanciate the various modules. The solution I found for that is to have the drivers for emac to use multithread_probe, and wait for a driver to be bound to the target MAL and PHY control devices (the device-tree contains reference to the MAL and PHY interface nodes, which I can then match to of_platform_devices). Right now, I've been polling, but with that notifier, I can more cleanly wait (with a timeout of course).

[PATCH] drivers: wait for threaded probes between initcall levels The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg, core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling core_initcall are still executing. This breaks the guarantees which the layered initcalls previously gave us. IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between different levels. Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at one level to complete before we start processing the next level.

Driver core: Fix potential deadlock in driver core There is a potential deadlock in the driver core. It boils down to the fact that bus_remove_device() calls klist_remove() instead of klist_del(), thereby waiting until the reference count of the klist_node in the bus's klist of devices drops to 0. The refcount can't reach 0 so long as a modprobe process is trying to bind a new driver to the device being removed, by calling __driver_attach(). The problem is that __driver_attach() tries to acquire the device's parent's semaphore, but the caller of bus_remove_device() is quite likely to own that semaphore already. It isn't sufficient just to replace klist_remove() with klist_del(). Doing so runs the risk that the device would remain on the bus's klist of devices for some time, and so could be bound to another driver even after it was unregistered. What's needed is a new way to distinguish whether or not a device is registered, based on a criterion other than whether its klist_node is linked into the bus's klist of devices. That way driver binding can fail when the device is unregistered, even if it is still linked into the klist. This patch (as782) implements the solution, by adding a new bitflag to indiate when a struct device is registered, by testing the flag before allowing a driver to bind a device, and by changing the definition of the device_is_registered() inline.

Driver Core: add ability for drivers to do a threaded probe This adds the infrastructure for drivers to do a threaded probe, and waits at init time for all currently outstanding probes to complete. A new kernel thread will be created when the probe() function for the driver is called, if the multithread_probe bit is set in the driver saying it can support this kind of operation. I have tested this with USB and PCI, and it works, and shaves off a lot of time in the boot process, but there are issues with finding root boot disks, and some USB drivers assume that this can never happen, so it is currently not enabled for any bus type. Individual drivers can enable this right now if they wish, and bus authors can selectivly turn it on as well, once they determine that their subsystem will work properly with it.

[PATCH] Hold the device's parent's lock during probe and remove This patch (as604) makes the driver core hold a device's parent's lock as well as the device's lock during calls to the probe and remove methods in a driver. This facility is needed by USB device drivers, owing to the peculiar way USB devices work: A device provides multiple interfaces, and drivers are bound to interfaces rather than to devices; Nevertheless a reset, reset-configuration, suspend, or resume affects the entire device and requires the caller to hold the lock for the device, not just a lock for one of the interfaces. Since a USB driver's probe method is always called with the interface lock held, the locking order rules (always lock parent before child) prevent these methods from acquiring the device lock. The solution provided here is to call all probe and remove methods, for all devices (not just USB), with the parent lock already acquired. Although currently only the USB subsystem requires these changes, people have mentioned in prior discussion that the overhead of acquiring an extra semaphore in all the prove/remove sequences is not overly large. Up to now, the USB core has been using its own set of private semaphores. A followup patch will remove them, relying entirely on the device semaphores provided by the driver core. The code paths affected by this patch are: device_add and device_del: The USB core already holds the parent lock, so no actual change is needed. driver_register and driver_unregister: The driver core will now lock both the parent and the device before probing or removing. driver_bind and driver_unbind (in sysfs): These routines will now lock both the parent and the device before binding or unbinding. bus_rescan_devices: The helper routine will lock the parent before probing a device. I have not tested this patch for conflicts with other subsystems. As far as I can see, the only possibility of conflict would lie in the bus_rescan_devices pathway, and it seems pretty remote. Nevertheless, it would be good for this to get a lot of testing in -mm. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

[PATCH] Driver Core: fis bus rescan devices race bus_rescan_devices_helper() does not hold the dev->sem when it checks for !dev->driver(). device_attach() holds the sem, but calls again device_bind_driver() even when dev->driver is set. What happens is that a first device_attach() call (module insertion time) is on the way binding the device to a driver. Another thread calls bus_rescan_devices(). Now when bus_rescan_devices_helper() checks for dev->driver it is still NULL 'cos the the prior device_attach() is not yet finished. But as soon as the first one releases the dev->sem the second device_attach() tries to rebind the already bound device again. device_bind_driver() does this blindly which leads to a corrupt driver->klist_devices list (the device links itself, the head points to the device). Later a call to device_release_driver() sets dev->driver to NULL and breaks the link it has to itself on knode_driver. Rmmoding the driver later calls driver_detach() which leads to an endless loop 'cos the list head in klist_devices still points to the device. And since dev->driver is NULL it's stuck with the same device forever. Boom. And rmmod hangs. Very easy to reproduce with new-style pcmcia and a 16bit card. Just loop modprobe <pcmcia-modules> ;cardctl eject; rmmod <card driver, pcmcia modules>. Easiest fix is to check if the device is already bound to a driver in device_bind_driver(). This avoids the double binding.

[PATCH] driver core: Add the ability to bind drivers to devices from userspace This adds a single file, "bind", to the sysfs directory of every driver registered with the driver core. To bind a device to a driver, write the bus id of the device you wish to bind to that specific driver to the "bind" file (remember to not add a trailing \n). If that bus id matches a device on that bus, and it does not currently have a driver bound to it, the probe sequence will be initiated with that driver and device. Note, this requires that the driver itself be willing and able to accept that device (usually through a device id type table). This patch does not make it possible to override the driver's id table.

[PATCH] driver core: Fix races in driver_detach() This patch is intended for your "driver" tree. It fixes several subtle races in driver_detach() and device_release_driver() in the driver-model core. The major change is to use klist_remove() rather than klist_del() when taking a device off its driver's list. There's no other way to guarantee that the list pointers will be updated before some other driver binds to the device. For this to work driver_detach() can't use a klist iterator, so the loop over the devices must be written out in full. In addition the patch protects against the possibility that, when a driver and a device are unregistered at the same time, one may be unloaded from memory before the other is finished using it.

[PATCH] Driver Core: fix bk-driver-core kills ppc64 There's no check to see if the device is already bound to a driver, which could do bad things. The first thing to go wrong is that it will try to match a driver with a device already bound to one. In some cases (it appears with USB with drivers/usb/core/usb.c::usb_match_id()), some drivers will match a device based on the class type, so it would be common (especially for HID devices) to match a device that is already bound. The fun comes when ->probe() is called, it fails, then driver_probe_device() does this: dev->driver = NULL; Later on, that pointer could be be dereferenced without checking and cause hell to break loose. This problem could be nasty. It's very hardware dependent, since some devices could have a different set of matching qualifiers than others. Now, I don't quite see exactly where/how you were getting that crash. You're dereferencing bad memory, but I'm not sure which pointer was bad and where it came from, but it could have come from a couple of different places. The patch below will hopefully fix it all up for you. It's against 2.6.12-rc2-mm1, and does the following: - Move logic to driver_probe_device() and comments uncommon returns: 1 - If device is bound 0 - If device not bound, and no error error - If there was an error. - Move locking to caller of that function, since we want to lock a device for the entire time we're trying to bind it to a driver (to prevent against a driver being loaded at the same time). - Update __device_attach() and __driver_attach() to do that locking. - Check if device is already bound in __driver_attach() - Update the converse device_release_driver() so it locks the device around all of the operations. - Mark driver_probe_device() as static and remove export. It's an internal function, it should stay that way, and there are no other callers. If there is ever a need to export it, we can audit it as necessary. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>
