On driver unload any pending descriptors are flushed and pending DMA descriptors are explicitly completed: idxd_dmaengine_drv_remove() -> drv_disable_wq() -> idxd_wq_free_irq() -> idxd_flush_pending_descs() -> idxd_dma_complete_txd() With this done during driver unload any remaining descriptor is likely stuck and can be dropped. Even so, the descriptor may still have a callback set that could no longer be accessible. An example of such a problem is when the dmatest fails and the dmatest module is unloaded. The failure of dmatest leaves descriptors with dma_async_tx_descriptor::callback pointing to code that no longer exist. This causes a page fault as below at the time the IDXD driver is unloaded when it attempts to run the callback: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc0665190 #PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0010) - not-present page Fix this by clearing the callback pointers on the transmit descriptors only when workqueue is disabled.
