The probe function is not allowed to fail after registering the RTC because the following may happen: CPU0: CPU1: sys_load_module() do_init_module() do_one_initcall() cmos_do_probe() rtc_device_register() __register_chrdev() cdev->owner = struct module* open("/dev/rtc0") rtc_device_unregister() module_put() free_module() module_free(mod->module_core) /* struct module *module is now freed */ chrdev_open() spin_lock(cdev_lock) cdev_get() try_module_get() module_is_live() /* dereferences already freed struct module* */ Also, the interrupt handler: ac100_rtc_irq() is dereferencing chip->rtc but this may still be NULL when it is called, resulting in: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000194 pgd = (ptrval) [00000194] *pgd=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 72 Comm: irq/71-ac100-rt Not tainted 4.15.0-rc1-next-20171201-dirty #120 Hardware name: Allwinner sun8i Family task: (ptrval) task.stack: (ptrval) PC is at mutex_lock+0x14/0x3c LR is at ac100_rtc_irq+0x38/0xc8 pc : [<c06543a4>] lr : [<c04d9a2c>] psr: 60000053 sp : ee9c9f28 ip : 00000000 fp : ee9adfdc r10: 00000000 r9 : c0a04c48 r8 : c015ed18 r7 : ee9bd600 r6 : ee9c9f28 r5 : ee9af590 r4 : c0a04c48 r3 : ef3cb3c0 r2 : 00000000 r1 : ee9af590 r0 : 00000194 Flags: nZCv IRQs on FIQs off Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment none Control: 10c5387d Table: 4000406a DAC: 00000051 Process irq/71-ac100-rt (pid: 72, stack limit = 0x(ptrval)) Stack: (0xee9c9f28 to 0xee9ca000) 9f20: 00000000 7c2fd1be c015ed18 ee9adf40 ee9c0400 ee9c0400 9f40: ee9adf40 c015ed34 ee9c8000 ee9adf64 ee9c0400 c015f040 ee9adf80 00000000 9f60: c015ee24 7c2fd1be ee9adfc0 ee9adf80 00000000 ee9c8000 ee9adf40 c015eef4 9f80: ef1eba34 c0138f14 ee9c8000 ee9adf80 c0138df4 00000000 00000000 00000000 9fa0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 c01010e8 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 9fc0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 9fe0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000013 00000000 ffffffff ffffffff [<c06543a4>] (mutex_lock) from [<c04d9a2c>] (ac100_rtc_irq+0x38/0xc8) [<c04d9a2c>] (ac100_rtc_irq) from [<c015ed34>] (irq_thread_fn+0x1c/0x54) [<c015ed34>] (irq_thread_fn) from [<c015f040>] (irq_thread+0x14c/0x214) [<c015f040>] (irq_thread) from [<c0138f14>] (kthread+0x120/0x150) [<c0138f14>] (kthread) from [<c01010e8>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x2c) Solve both issues by moving to devm_rtc_allocate_device()/rtc_register_device() Reported-by: Quentin Schulz <quentin.schulz@free-electrons.com> Tested-by: Quentin Schulz <quentin.schulz@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@free-electrons.com> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
