[PATCH 1/1] libsrp: Fix oops on ibmvscsis module remove

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While testing the ibmvscsis driver, an oops was observed on module
remove. This occurred due to some confusion regarding what layer
owns the drvdata in the struct device for an ibmvscsis device.
libsrp was overriding what ibmvscsis had already setup, so on
module remove we go off a bad pointer. Since libsrp appears
only to setup drvdata and never read the value, lets just remove
setting it in libsrp and let the server driver own the field.
