Hello all,

I am beginning with Linux Kernel development. So I am trying to make
the IIO tasks posted on kernelnewbies DOT org.
But I got stuck with this problem that I am describing you hereafter
hoping that someone could bring me any feedback.

Many thanks,
Miguel ROBLES

----------
DESCRIPTION
-----------

After loading the corresponding IIO modules and mountig the configfs filesystem
I can not create an instance device with mkdir using the command:

$ sudo mkdir /config/iio/devices/dummy/my_dummy_device
Killed

I get the "Killed" message and looking at my syslog file, I got the warning "refcount_t: increment on 0; use-after-free" followed by an "Oops" message. When trying to execute the command one more time, the execution never finishes.


------
CONTEXT
-------

- Tried on 2 linux kernel releases:
      - kernel: 4.10 (commit: 4977ab6)
      - Kernel: 4.11 (commit: ec3b93a)

- Compiled with config file including the following options for IIO:

#
# IIO dummy driver
#
CONFIG_IIO_DUMMY_EVGEN=m
CONFIG_IIO_SIMPLE_DUMMY=m
CONFIG_IIO_SIMPLE_DUMMY_EVENTS=y
CONFIG_IIO_SIMPLE_DUMMY_BUFFER=y

CONFIG_IIO_CONFIGFS=m

Do you also have CONFIG_IIO_SW_DEVICE right?

Yes, and the value is:  CONFIG_IIO_SW_DEVICE=m.

Thank you,
Miguel

Will try to have a look at this asap.


thanks,
Daniel.
