Hi All, I have DVB card with IR controller connected over i2c bus (this card is supported by module saa7134). This IR controller work mostly fine, bud when I execute rmmod ir-kbd-i2c and modprobe ir-kbd-i2c again, IR controller stops working. I found problem in aa7134-input.c, metod saa7134_probe_i2c_ir. Please, see this: struct IR_i2c_init_data init_data; // inicialize init_data as local variable ... info.platform_data = &init_data; // put pointer to local variable to // platform_data ... i2c_new_device(&dev->i2c_adap, &info); // publish this for other modules ... } // end of function, so kernel can use memory used for local variable again Here is my patch for fix this problem: Signed-off-by: Lukas Karas <lukas.karas@xxxxxxxxxx> --- ./video.2b49813f8482/saa7134/saa7134-input.c 2009-09-03 12:06:34.000000000 +0200 +++ video/saa7134/saa7134-input.c 2009-09-07 00:51:46.000000000 +0200 @@ -742,7 +808,7 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 { #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 30) struct i2c_board_info info; - struct IR_i2c_init_data init_data; + struct IR_i2c_init_data *init_data; const unsigned short addr_list[] = { 0x7a, 0x47, 0x71, 0x2d, I2C_CLIENT_END @@ -770,7 +836,8 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 30) memset(&info, 0, sizeof(struct i2c_board_info)); - memset(&init_data, 0, sizeof(struct IR_i2c_init_data)); + init_data = kzalloc(sizeof(struct IR_i2c_init_data), GFP_KERNEL); strlcpy(info.type, "ir_video", I2C_NAME_SIZE); #endif @@ -780,15 +847,15 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 30) snprintf(ir->c.name, sizeof(ir->c.name), "Pinnacle PCTV"); #else - init_data.name = "Pinnacle PCTV"; + init_data->name = "Pinnacle PCTV"; #endif if (pinnacle_remote == 0) { #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 30) ir->get_key = get_key_pinnacle_color; ir->ir_codes = &ir_codes_pinnacle_color_table; #else - init_data.get_key = get_key_pinnacle_color; - init_data.ir_codes = &ir_codes_pinnacle_color_table; + init_data->get_key = get_key_pinnacle_color; + init_data->ir_codes = &ir_codes_pinnacle_color_table; info.addr = 0x47; #endif } else { @@ -796,8 +863,8 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 ir->get_key = get_key_pinnacle_grey; ir->ir_codes = &ir_codes_pinnacle_grey_table; #else - init_data.get_key = get_key_pinnacle_grey; - init_data.ir_codes = &ir_codes_pinnacle_grey_table; + init_data->get_key = get_key_pinnacle_grey; + init_data->ir_codes = &ir_codes_pinnacle_grey_table; info.addr = 0x47; #endif } @@ -808,9 +875,9 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 ir->get_key = get_key_purpletv; ir->ir_codes = &ir_codes_purpletv_table; #else - init_data.name = "Purple TV"; - init_data.get_key = get_key_purpletv; - init_data.ir_codes = &ir_codes_purpletv_table; + init_data->name = "Purple TV"; + init_data->get_key = get_key_purpletv; + init_data->ir_codes = &ir_codes_purpletv_table; #endif break; case SAA7134_BOARD_MSI_TVATANYWHERE_PLUS: @@ -819,9 +886,9 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 ir->get_key = get_key_msi_tvanywhere_plus; ir->ir_codes = &ir_codes_msi_tvanywhere_plus_table; #else - init_data.name = "MSI TV@nywhere Plus"; - init_data.get_key = get_key_msi_tvanywhere_plus; - init_data.ir_codes = &ir_codes_msi_tvanywhere_plus_table; + init_data->name = "MSI TV@nywhere Plus"; + init_data->get_key = get_key_msi_tvanywhere_plus; + init_data->ir_codes = &ir_codes_msi_tvanywhere_plus_table; info.addr = 0x30; /* MSI TV@nywhere Plus controller doesn't seem to respond to probes unless we read something from @@ -839,9 +906,9 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 ir->get_key = get_key_hvr1110; ir->ir_codes = &ir_codes_hauppauge_new_table; #else - init_data.name = "HVR 1110"; - init_data.get_key = get_key_hvr1110; - init_data.ir_codes = &ir_codes_hauppauge_new_table; + init_data->name = "HVR 1110"; + init_data->get_key = get_key_hvr1110; + init_data->ir_codes = &ir_codes_hauppauge_new_table; #endif break; case SAA7134_BOARD_BEHOLD_607FM_MK3: @@ -862,9 +929,21 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 ir->get_key = get_key_beholdm6xx; ir->ir_codes = &ir_codes_behold_table; #else - init_data.name = "BeholdTV"; - init_data.get_key = get_key_beholdm6xx; - init_data.ir_codes = &ir_codes_behold_table; + init_data->name = "BeholdTV"; + init_data->get_key = get_key_beholdm6xx; + init_data->ir_codes = &ir_codes_behold_table; #endif break; #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 30) @@ -879,8 +958,9 @@ void saa7134_probe_i2c_ir(struct saa7134 } #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 30) - if (init_data.name) - info.platform_data = &init_data; + if (init_data->name) + info.platform_data = init_data; /* No need to probe if address is known */ if (info.addr) { i2c_new_device(&dev->i2c_adap, &info); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
