[PATCH 2/2] ppc64: Crash in DLPAR code on remove operation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch fixes two bugs related to dlpar slot removal and add.

-- Both crashes are due to the fact the some children 
   of pci nodes are not pci nodes themselves, and thus do not 
   have pci_dn structures.  For example:
        /pci@800000020000002/pci@2,3/usb@1/hub@1
        /pci@800000020000002/pci@2,3/usb@1,1/hub@1

   Strangely, though, sometimes the following appears, 
   and I don't quite understand why.
        /interrupt-controller@3fe0000a400

   A typical stack trace:
        Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c0000000555637d0]
         pc: c000000000202a50: .dlpar_add_slot+0x108/0x410
             c000000000202e78 .add_slot_store+0x7c/0xac
             c000000000202da0 .dlpar_attr_store+0x48/0x64
             c0000000000f8ee4 .sysfs_write_file+0x100/0x1a0

   A similar stack trace is involved for the slot remove.

This code survived testing, of adding and removing different slots,
23 times each, so far, as of this writing.
