[patch -resend] leds-lp5523: BUG() in error handling in probe()

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

 



Inside the error handling in lp5523_init_led(), there is a place that
calls to led_classdev_unregister().  When we unregister the LED drivers,
it tries to set the brightness to OFF.  In this driver setting the
brightness is done through a work queue and the work queue hasn't been
initialized yet.

The result is that we trigger a WARN_ON() in the __queue_work().

The fix is to move the INIT_WORK() in front of the call to
lp5523_init_led().

Matt Renzelmann found this using a bug finding tool.

I don't have this hardware, so I can't test it.  I originally sent this
on Fri, 13 Apr 2012, and that was before Bryan Wu took on the LED
subsystem.  Also when I sent it, the WARN_ON() in __queue_work() was
a BUG_ON() so I've updated the commit message.
