acpi_bus_register_driver() and latest acpi trees

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

 



Len,
  When building kernels from your ACPI release or test trees,
as well as the -mm tree, SN Altix boots are crashing in the
kobject code when calling acpi_bus_register_driver().
The crash is because kset->list has not been initialized yet.

 kobject_add()
  list_add_tail(&kobj->entry,&kobj->kset->list);


Is there now a restriction on how early acpi_bus_register_driver()
can be called? If so, at what point in time can calls be made,
and is it still possible to register a driver early enough such
that it will be called at device discovery time vs registration time?

Thanks,
John
