When the acpi hotplug job is scheduled success, the adev device can not be put because acpi_device_hotplug() will put it until hotplug routine finished. drivers/acpi/bus.c acpi_bus_notify() acpi_bus_get_acpi_device(handle) //get here drivers/acpi/osl.c acpi_hotplug_schedule() drivers/acpi/osl.c acpi_hotplug_work_fn() drivers/acpi/scan.c acpi_device_hotplug() acpi_bus_put_acpi_device(adev) //put here > > + if (hotplug_event) { > > + if (ACPI_FAILURE(acpi_hotplug_schedule(adev, type))) { > > + acpi_bus_put_acpi_device(adev); > > + goto err; > > + } else { > > + return; > > + } > > + } > > Wouldn't be simpler to > > - return; > + goto err_put_device; > > + err_put_device: > + acpi_bus_put_acpi_device(adev); > err: > So, do you mean like this? - if (hotplug_event && ACPI_SUCCESS(acpi_hotplug_schedule(adev, type))) - return; + if (hotplug_event) { + if (ACPI_SUCCESS(acpi_hotplug_schedule(adev, type))) + return; + else + goto err_put_device; + } acpi_bus_put_acpi_device(adev); return; +err_put_device: + acpi_bus_put_acpi_device(adev); err: acpi_evaluate_ost(handle, type, ost_code, NULL); } Thanks for your suggestion, it looks simpler.
