VFs are: b2:00.1,... b2:00.3, and b3:00.1,...,b3:00.3 Root cause: when doing pci_stop_bus_device() with phys fn, it will stop virt fn and remove the fn, so list_for_each_safe(l, n, &bus->devices) will have problem to refer freed n that is pointed to vf entry. Solution is just replacing list_for_each_safe() with list_for_each(). pci_stop_bus_device(dev) will not remove dev from bus->devices list, so We only need use for_each here. During reviewing the patch, Bjorn said: | The PCI hot-remove path calls pci_stop_bus_devices() via | pci_remove_bus_device(). | | pci_stop_bus_devices() traverses the bus->devices list (point A below), | stopping each device in turn, which calls the driver remove() method. When | the device is an SR-IOV PF, the driver calls pci_disable_sriov(), which | also uses pci_remove_bus_device() to remove the VF devices from the | bus->devices list (point B). | | pci_remove_bus_device | pci_stop_bus_device | pci_stop_bus_devices(subordinate) | list_for_each(bus->devices) <-- A | pci_stop_bus_device(PF) | ... | driver->remove | pci_disable_sriov | ... | pci_remove_bus_device(VF) | <remove from bus_list> <-- B | | At B, we're changing the same list we're iterating through at A, so when | the driver remove() method returns, the pci_stop_bus_devices() iterator has | a pointer to a list entry that has already been freed. Discussion thread can be found : https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/15/141 -v2: updated changelog. -v3: According to Kenji, do not allocate another list for PF. Also We don't need to check dev->is_virtfn anymore, because PF should come first in the list, and even VF come first, it is still ok. -v4: According to Kenji, expand list_for_each(), and add is_virtfn checking Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/pci/remove.c | 28 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 27 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) Index: linux-2.6/drivers/pci/remove.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/drivers/pci/remove.c +++ linux-2.6/drivers/pci/remove.c @@ -123,10 +123,36 @@ void pci_remove_behind_bridge(struct pci static void pci_stop_bus_devices(struct pci_bus *bus) { struct list_head *l, *n; + struct list_head *head = &bus->devices; + /* + * pci_stop_bus_device(dev) will not remove dev from bus->devices list, + * so We don't need use _safe version for_each here. + * Also _safe version has problem when pci_stop_bus_device() for PF try + * to remove VFs. + */ + for (l = head->next; l != head;) { + struct pci_dev *dev = pci_dev_b(l); + + /* + * VFs are removed by pci_remove_bus_device() in the + * pci_stop_bus_devices() code path for PF. + * aka, bus->devices get updated in the process. + * barrier() will make sure we get right next from that list. + */ + if (!dev->is_virtfn) { + pci_stop_bus_device(dev); + barrier(); + } + l = l->next; + } + + /* For left over VFs in case */ list_for_each_safe(l, n, &bus->devices) { struct pci_dev *dev = pci_dev_b(l); - pci_stop_bus_device(dev); + + if (dev->is_virtfn) + pci_stop_bus_device(dev); } } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
