From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> The device_del(&host_bridge->dev) in pci_stop_root_bus() is problematic, because it causes all sysfs directories below the host bridge to be removed recursively and when pci_remove_root_bus() attempts to remove devices on the root bus (whose sysfs directories are gone now along with all their subdirectories), it causes warnings similar to this one to be printed: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6 at fs/sysfs/group.c:214 sysfs_remove_group+0xc6/0xd0() sysfs group ffffffff819ac5c0 not found for kobject '0001:ff:10.2' Modules linked in: <irrelevant list> CPU: 0 PID: 6 Comm: kworker/u512:0 Tainted: G W 3.13.0-rc5+ #11 Hardware name: Workqueue: kacpi_hotplug acpi_hotplug_work_fn 0000000000000009 ffff8808738d3bd8 ffffffff815d84ea ffff8808738d3c20 ffff8808738d3c10 ffffffff8106594d 0000000000000000 ffffffff819ac5c0 ffff880871b9d0a8 ffff8a07d1895000 0000000000000103 ffff8808738d3c70 Call Trace: [<ffffffff815d84ea>] dump_stack+0x45/0x56 [<ffffffff8106594d>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7d/0xa0 [<ffffffff810659bc>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x4c/0x50 [<ffffffff8122b52e>] ? sysfs_get_dirent_ns+0x4e/0x70 [<ffffffff8122c806>] sysfs_remove_group+0xc6/0xd0 [<ffffffff813b83f3>] dpm_sysfs_remove+0x43/0x50 [<ffffffff813ae105>] device_del+0x45/0x1c0 [<ffffffff812e51f6>] pci_remove_bus_device+0x66/0xd0 [<ffffffff812e5363>] pci_remove_root_bus+0x73/0x80 [<ffffffff813276ab>] acpi_pci_root_remove+0x42/0x4f [<ffffffff81323070>] acpi_bus_trim+0x56/0x89 [<ffffffff81323052>] acpi_bus_trim+0x38/0x89 [<ffffffff813245df>] acpi_device_hotplug+0x137/0x33b [<ffffffff8131efba>] acpi_hotplug_work_fn+0x1c/0x27 [<ffffffff81080f1b>] process_one_work+0x17b/0x460 [<ffffffff81081ccb>] worker_thread+0x11b/0x400 [<ffffffff81081bb0>] ? rescuer_thread+0x3e0/0x3e0 [<ffffffff81088a12>] kthread+0xd2/0xf0 [<ffffffff81088940>] ? kthread_create_on_node+0x180/0x180 [<ffffffff815e823c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff81088940>] ? kthread_create_on_node+0x180/0x180 To avoid that, the host bridge device has to be deleted after all of its children, so merge pci_stop_root_bus() and pci_remove_root_bus() into one function, pci_stop_and_remove_root_bus(), that first will use pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device() to stop and remove all devices on the root bus and then will delete the host bridge device, remove its bus and drop the final reference to it.

Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> --- Hi, I can't really test this patch, but I don't know how it can break anything. The only user of pci_stop_root_bus() and pci_remove_root_bus() is acpi_pci_root_remove() and the code ordering there seems to be somewhat arbitrary. If you are aware of any reason why it may not work, please let me know. :-) Thanks, Rafael --- drivers/acpi/pci_root.c | 4 +--- drivers/pci/remove.c | 23 ++++------------------- include/linux/pci.h | 3 +-- 3 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) Index: linux-pm/drivers/acpi/pci_root.c =================================================================== --- linux-pm.orig/drivers/acpi/pci_root.c +++ linux-pm/drivers/acpi/pci_root.c @@ -611,12 +611,10 @@ static void acpi_pci_root_remove(struct { struct acpi_pci_root *root = acpi_driver_data(device); - pci_stop_root_bus(root->bus); - device_set_run_wake(root->bus->bridge, false); pci_acpi_remove_bus_pm_notifier(device); - pci_remove_root_bus(root->bus); + pci_stop_and_remove_root_bus(root->bus); kfree(root); } Index: linux-pm/drivers/pci/remove.c =================================================================== --- linux-pm.orig/drivers/pci/remove.c +++ linux-pm/drivers/pci/remove.c @@ -114,7 +114,7 @@ void pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(stru } EXPORT_SYMBOL(pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device); -void pci_stop_root_bus(struct pci_bus *bus) +void pci_stop_and_remove_root_bus(struct pci_bus *bus) { struct pci_dev *child, *tmp; struct pci_host_bridge *host_bridge; @@ -123,29 +123,14 @@ void pci_stop_root_bus(struct pci_bus *b return; host_bridge = to_pci_host_bridge(bus->bridge); - list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(child, tmp, - &bus->devices, bus_list) - pci_stop_bus_device(child); + list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(child, tmp, &bus->devices, bus_list) + pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(child); /* stop the host bridge */ device_del(&host_bridge->dev); -} - -void pci_remove_root_bus(struct pci_bus *bus) -{ - struct pci_dev *child, *tmp; - struct pci_host_bridge *host_bridge; - - if (!pci_is_root_bus(bus)) - return; - - host_bridge = to_pci_host_bridge(bus->bridge); - list_for_each_entry_safe(child, tmp, - &bus->devices, bus_list) - pci_remove_bus_device(child); + /* remove the root bus */ pci_remove_bus(bus); host_bridge->bus = NULL; - /* remove the host bridge */ put_device(&host_bridge->dev); } Index: linux-pm/include/linux/pci.h =================================================================== --- linux-pm.orig/include/linux/pci.h +++ linux-pm/include/linux/pci.h @@ -779,8 +779,7 @@ struct pci_dev *pci_dev_get(struct pci_d void pci_dev_put(struct pci_dev *dev); void pci_remove_bus(struct pci_bus *b); void pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(struct pci_dev *dev); -void pci_stop_root_bus(struct pci_bus *bus); -void pci_remove_root_bus(struct pci_bus *bus); +void pci_stop_and_remove_root_bus(struct pci_bus *bus); void pci_setup_cardbus(struct pci_bus *bus); void pci_sort_breadthfirst(void); #define dev_is_pci(d) ((d)->bus == &pci_bus_type) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
