Commit 09f012e64e4b ("stmmac: intel: Fix clock handling on error and remove paths") removed this clk_disable_unprepare() This was partly revert by commit ac322f86b56c ("net: stmmac: Fix clock handling on remove path") which removed this clk_disable_unprepare() because: " While unloading the dwmac-intel driver, clk_disable_unprepare() is being called twice in stmmac_dvr_remove() and intel_eth_pci_remove(). This causes kernel panic on the second call. " However later on, commit 5ec55823438e8 ("net: stmmac: add clocks management for gmac driver") has updated stmmac_dvr_remove() which do not call clk_disable_unprepare() anymore. So this call should now be called from intel_eth_pci_remove(). Fixes: 5ec55823438e8 ("net: stmmac: add clocks management for gmac driver") Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> --- /!\ This patch is HIGHLY speculative. /!\ The corresponding clk_disable_unprepare() is still called within the pm related stmmac_bus_clks_config() function. However, with my limited understanding of the pm API, I think it that the patch is valid. (in other word, does the pm_runtime_put() and/or pm_runtime_disable() and/or stmmac_dvr_remove() can end up calling .runtime_suspend()) So please review with care, as I'm not able to test the change by myself. If I'm wrong, maybe a comment explaining why it is safe to have this call in the error handling path of the probe and not in the remove function would avoid erroneous patches generated from static code analyzer to be sent. --- drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-intel.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-intel.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-intel.c index 52f9ed8db9c9..9f38642f86ce 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-intel.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-intel.c @@ -1134,6 +1134,7 @@ static void intel_eth_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev) stmmac_dvr_remove(&pdev->dev); + clk_disable_unprepare(plat->stmmac_clk); clk_unregister_fixed_rate(priv->plat->stmmac_clk); pcim_iounmap_regions(pdev, BIT(0)); -- 2.34.1
