Hi Kay, Greg, I've been working on this patch series recently that adds function and device level hotplug into the PCI core: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.pci/3495 For the last two weeks, I've been beating my head against a refcounting/kobject problem, and was hoping you could give me some advice, since I seem to have run into a wall. My test case has been removing device 0000:04:00.0, which should remove all the devices below it. +-[0000:03]---00.0-[0000:04-07]----00.0-[0000:05-07]--+-02.0-[0000:06]--+-00.0 Intel Corporation 82571EB Quad Port Gigabit Mezzanine Adapter | | \-00.1 Intel Corporation 82571EB Quad Port Gigabit Mezzanine Adapter | \-04.0-[0000:07]--+-00.0 Intel Corporation 82571EB Quad Port Gigabit Mezzanine Adapter | \-00.1 Intel Corporation 82571EB Quad Port Gigabit Mezzanine Adapter I can remove the device and rescan the bus once, and it works fine. The second removal works fine, and then, unpredictably, later rescan/remove cycles eventually end up producing a warning and oops every time. Sometimes I die on the 2nd rescan, sometimes not until the 4th or 5th remove/rescan cycle. In this data set, I turned on kobject debugging, and managed to capture a trace where we die on the 2nd rescan. In this data set, we: - create a kobject for 0000:04:00.0 (e00000018cac2920) - remove the device - observe '0000:04:00.0' (e00000018cac2920): calling ktype release - rescan the bus - discover that e00000018cac2920 is still hanging around! At this point, I'm not sure what else to instrument or look at to see what might be going on, and was hoping you could give me a pointer. One final data point, if I build my kernel without PCIe support, the same experiment on the same topology/devices above can withstand infinite remove/recan cycles (where infinite is defined as > 20 before I got bored ;). I'm going to include the kobject debug info below along with some annotations. There's a lot of data, but it should be straightforward to follow. It doesn't get interesting until the 2nd remove/rescan. Any help/advice you have for me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! /ac [During initial boot] ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [L003] (0000:03) kobject: 'pci0000:03' (e0000001809b3090): kobject_add_internal: parent: 'devices', set: 'devices' kobject: 'pci0000:03'
