See this thread: http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/2/13/82 Specifically this mail: Date Mon, 14 Feb 2005 14:51:26 -0500 From Jeff Garzik <> ... You also need to consider situations such as out-of-tree drivers for the same hardware (might not use PCI API), and situations where you have peer devices discovered and used (PCI API doesn't have "hey, <this> device is associated with <current driver>, too" capability). ... Searching for 'pci_disable_device() inurl:lkml' doesn't give me newer info aboud this problem, so I think it's better to play safe. > > regards, > dan carpenter > > > Move pci_enable_device() after checking moxa_boards[] to remove senseless > > pci_enable_device()/pci_disable_device(). > > > > Signed-off-by: Kulikov Vasiliy <segooon@xxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > drivers/char/moxa.c | 12 +++++++----- > > 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/char/moxa.c b/drivers/char/moxa.c > > index 107b0bd..0ea5aeb 100644 > > --- a/drivers/char/moxa.c > > +++ b/drivers/char/moxa.c > > @@ -939,11 +939,6 @@ static int __devinit moxa_pci_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev, > > int board_type = ent->driver_data; > > int retval; > > > > - retval = pci_enable_device(pdev); > > - if (retval) { > > - dev_err(&pdev->dev, "can't enable pci device\n"); > > - goto err; > > - } > > > > for (i = 0; i < MAX_BOARDS; i++) > > if (moxa_boards[i].basemem == NULL) > > @@ -956,6 +951,12 @@ static int __devinit moxa_pci_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev, > > goto err; > > } > > > > + retval = pci_enable_device(pdev); > > + if (retval) { > > + dev_err(&pdev->dev, "can't enable pci device\n"); > > + goto err; > > + } > > + > > board = &moxa_boards[i]; > > > > retval = pci_request_region(pdev, 2, "moxa-base"); > > @@ -1001,6 +1002,7 @@ err_base: > > board->basemem = NULL; > > err_reg: > > pci_release_region(pdev, 2); > > + pci_disable_device(pdev); > > err: > > return retval; > > } > > -- > > 1.7.0.4 > > > > -- > > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in > > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
