[PATCH] drm/i915: Remove bogus __init annotation from DMI callbacks

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

 



The __init annotations for the DMI callback functions are wrong as this
code can be called even after the module has been initialized, e.g. like
this:

  # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:02.0/remove
  # modprobe i915
  # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan

The first command will remove the PCI device from the kernel's device
list so the second command won't see it right away. But as it registers
a PCI driver it'll see it on the third command. If the system happens to
match one of the DMI table entries we'll try to call a function in long
released memory and generate an Oops, at best.

Fix this by removing the bogus annotation.

Modpost should have caught that one but it ignores section reference
mismatches from the .rodata section. :/

Fixes: 8ca4013d702d ("CHROMIUM: i915: Add DMI override to skip CRT...")
Fixes: 425d244c8670 ("drm/i915: ignore LVDS on intel graphics systems...")

In the long run me might want to move the DMI tests to some __init code
to be able to mark the DMI tables as __initconst, thereby allowing to
release this memory after module initialization. That would safe us some
~11 kB of memory, as the DMI data shouldn't change at run-time.
