[PATCH 0/3] hwrng: xgene - Some improvements

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

 



Hello,

while working on the quest to make struct platform_driver::remove() return void
I stumbled over the xgene-rng driver because it didn't return 0 in .remove().

Looking at it I found two other patch opportunities, here is the result.

I think the driver has some more problems:

 - device_init_wakeup() is only called after devm_hwrng_register(). After the
   latter returns the respective callbacks can be called. Is the device already
   in the right state before device_init_wakeup(..., 1)?

 - Similar problem on .remove(): device_init_wakeup(..., 0) is called before
   hwrng_unregister() happens.

 - If there are two (or more) devices of that type, .probe() for the 2nd overwrites
   xgene_rng_func.priv of the first one.

Best regards
Uwe
