Hi all, I wonder if Devin/Mauro could help me with something as I've run into a problem developing a driver for the PCTV 290e? First plug of the device works fine, em28xx and em28xx_dvb are loaded. However, if I disconnect and then re-plug the device, the em28xx_dvb module will hang in dvb_init() where it performs mutex_lock(&dev->lock); It looks like the code to handle udev locking runs into a problem if the em28xx_dvb is already loaded. I'm referring to this: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/91160/ I don't have any other em28xx DVB devices to test against at the moment. I have modified dvb_init to give up if it doesn't get a lock straight away. This is not a valid fix, but it means I can run rmmod instead of rebooting. Below is a copy of khubd's complaint about the hangup. I pulled from media_tree.git. Perhaps this is already fixed in another branch? Thanks.
