Hello,
I did some more testing (now with a virtual machine).
I've updated to Kernel version 4.4.1. The problem stays the same.
Then I tried with a PS3 controller and (as somehow expected, as the same
driver is involved), I have the same problem.
The kernel panic, directly after unplugging, only occured once, but the
following is 100% reproducible:
- Open fftest and run some effect on the controller.
- Unplug the controller while fftest is still running. It doesn't matter
if an effect is still playing.
- After doing so, plug *any* USB HID game controller, you like. I used
some cheap noname controller. For me plugging whatever USB HID game
controller finally crashes the kernel with 100% success rate.
So it seems to be the case, that the hid-sony module somehow breaks
parts deeper in the USB HID stack in the kernel.
This problem doesn't occur with the xpad driver and a Xbox 360 gamepad,
so it is no general problem which happens with every supported game
controller.
Any feedback would be nice. Am I in the right mailing list for bug reports?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Manuel

Hello,
I'm currently using the following Kernel version:
Linux manuelspc 4.3.3-3-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Jan 24 10:28:30 CET 2016
x86_64 GNU/Linux
While testing with force feedback, I found the following bug which makes
it impossible to disconnect the PS4 controller while some "force
feedback user" (may also be a game) is still running.
To reproduce, connect a PS4 controller via USB. Now run "fftest" on it
and choose effect number "0".
While the effect still runs, pull the USB plug.
Result: The kernel panics. Had to hard-reset the machine.
Is it OK to just report this here or should I open a bug on Bugzilla for
that?
If more information is needed, just ask.
Best regards,
Manuel
