This patch at least makes the system stable. Adding linux-pci to the Cc list. NVMe only clears the driver data in the ->remove callback, so the trace below looks very odd. That being said the issue of PCIe error handling synchronization came up before and I think we really need to figure out a way to synchronize the error methods with ->probe / ->remove. In this case it might have been the call to device_release_driver from nvme_remove_dead_ctrl_work, but either way we need something that properly synchronized the PCIe calls. Pandit: can you throw a printk into nvme_remove_dead_ctrl_work and see if it gets called just before you see the NULL pointer dereference? > [ 1619.130015] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000001f8 > [ 1619.130059] IP: nvme_reset+0x5/0x60 > [ 1619.130075] PGD 0 > [ 1619.130076] P4D 0 > > [ 1619.130103] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP > [ 1619.130117] Modules linked in: rfcomm(E) fuse(E) nf_conntrack_netbios_ns(E)...... > [ 1619.130403] btrtl(E) ath(E) ...... > [ 1619.130701] usb_storage i2c_hid > [ 1619.130720] CPU: 0 PID: 31625 Comm: bash Tainted: G W E 4.11.0+ #3 > [ 1619.130749] Hardware name: Acer Predator G9-591/Mustang_SLS, BIOS V1.10 03/03/2016 > [ 1619.130780] task: ffff880163e48000 task.stack: ffffc900085c4000 > [ 1619.130807] RIP: 0010:nvme_reset+0x5/0x60 > [ 1619.130825] RSP: 0000:ffffc900085c7d68 EFLAGS: 00010246 > [ 1619.130848] RAX: ffffffff815cc190 RBX: ffff8804aeaa1000 RCX: 0000000000000000 > [ 1619.130877] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000000 > [ 1619.130904] RBP: ffffc900085c7d70 R08: 0000000000000002 R09: ffffc900085c7ca4 > [ 1619.130934] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 000000000000029e R12: ffff8804aeaa1100 > [ 1619.130962] R13: 0000000000000002 R14: ffffc900085c7f18 R15: fffffffffffffff2 > [ 1619.130994] FS: 00007f692d7cb700(0000) GS:ffff8804c1c00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 > [ 1619.131027] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 > [ 1619.131052] CR2: 00000000000001f8 CR3: 0000000164483000 CR4: 00000000003406f0 > [ 1619.131083] DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 > [ 1619.131113] DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 > [ 1619.131144] Call Trace: > [ 1619.131159] ? nvme_reset_notify+0x1a/0x30 > [ 1619.131181] pci_dev_restore+0x38/0x50 > [ 1619.131199] pci_reset_function+0x65/0x80 > [ 1619.131218] reset_store+0x54/0x80 > [ 1619.131235] dev_attr_store+0x18/0x30 > [ 1619.131253] sysfs_kf_write+0x37/0x40 > [ 1619.131269] kernfs_fop_write+0x110/0x1a0 > [ 1619.131288] __vfs_write+0x37/0x140 > [ 1619.131306] ? selinux_file_permission+0xd7/0x110 > [ 1619.131328] ? security_file_permission+0x3b/0xc0 > [ 1619.131349] vfs_write+0xb5/0x1a0 > [ 1619.131366] SyS_write+0x55/0xc0 > [ 1619.131383] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1a/0xa5 > [ 1619.131405] RIP: 0033:0x7f692cec1c20 > [ 1619.131421] RSP: 002b:00007ffeea27b938 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000001 > [ 1619.131452] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007f692d18b5e0 RCX: 00007f692cec1c20 > [ 1619.131481] RDX: 0000000000000002 RSI: 000055dcd896ccf0 RDI: 0000000000000001 > [ 1619.131510] RBP: 0000000000000001 R08: 00007f692d18c740 R09: 00007f692d7cb700 > [ 1619.131541] R10: 0000000000000073 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 000055dcd89a3930 > [ 1619.131571] R13: 0000000000000001 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000001 > [ 1619.131601] Code: 84 00 00 00 00 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 55 89 f6 48 03 > b7 40 ff ff ff 48 89 e5 48 8b 06 48 89 02 31 c0 5d c3 0f 1f 40 00 0f > 1f 44 00 00 <48> 8b 87 f8 01 00 00 48 85 c0 74 49 48 8b 80 a0 01 00 00 > a8 20 > [ 1619.131708] RIP: nvme_reset+0x5/0x60 RSP: ffffc900085c7d68 > [ 1619.131732] CR2: 00000000000001f8 > > Signed-off-by: Rakesh Pandit <rakesh@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > > This is produce independent of separate issue under discussion > regarding resetting the device (system hang) and works well with or > without patch set "nvme: fix hang in path of removing disk". > > drivers/nvme/host/pci.c | 5 +++++ > 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c b/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c > index 0866f64..fce61eb 100644 > --- a/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c > +++ b/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c > @@ -2159,6 +2159,11 @@ static void nvme_reset_notify(struct pci_dev *pdev, bool prepare) > { > struct nvme_dev *dev = pci_get_drvdata(pdev); > > + if (!dev) { > + pr_err("reset%s notification to nvme failed", > + prepare ?
