In brd_init func, rd_nr num of brd_device are firstly allocated and add in brd_devices, then brd_devices are traversed to add each brd_device by calling add_disk func. When allocating brd_device, the disk->first_minor is set to i * max_part, if rd_nr * max_part is larger than MINORMASK, two different brd_device may have the same devt, then only one of them can be successfully added. when rmmod brd.ko, it will cause oops when calling brd_exit. Follow those steps: # modprobe brd rd_nr=3 rd_size=102400 max_part=1048576 # rmmod brd then, the oops will appear.
