> I could fix this issue by putting scsi_device_put() just after each __scsi_add_device() call. I'll prepare a patch if I haven't missed something. Thanks Akinobu for fixing it. We were always compiling the driver statically in kernel so didn't notice this. Yes, I would be happy to ACK your change. BTW, these patches are already merged into I could fix this issue by putting git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/scsi-queue.git -b drivers-for-3.18, so you may to base your fix on it. -----Original Message----- From: Akinobu Mita [mailto:akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 03, 2014 9:16 AM To: Dolev Raviv Cc: Jej B; Christoph Hellwig; linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-scsi-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-arm-msm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; Santosh Y; Subhash Jadavani Subject: Re: [PATCH V6 10/18] scsi: ufs: manually add well known logical units 2014-09-25 21:32 GMT+09:00 Dolev Raviv <draviv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > +static int ufshcd_scsi_add_wlus(struct ufs_hba *hba) { > + int ret = 0; > + > + hba->sdev_ufs_device = __scsi_add_device(hba->host, 0, 0, > + ufshcd_upiu_wlun_to_scsi_wlun(UFS_UPIU_UFS_DEVICE_WLUN), NULL); > + if (IS_ERR(hba->sdev_ufs_device)) { > + ret = PTR_ERR(hba->sdev_ufs_device); > + hba->sdev_ufs_device = NULL; > + goto out; > + } > + > + hba->sdev_boot = __scsi_add_device(hba->host, 0, 0, > + ufshcd_upiu_wlun_to_scsi_wlun(UFS_UPIU_BOOT_WLUN), NULL); > + if (IS_ERR(hba->sdev_boot)) { > + ret = PTR_ERR(hba->sdev_boot); > + hba->sdev_boot = NULL; > + goto remove_sdev_ufs_device; > + } > + > + hba->sdev_rpmb = __scsi_add_device(hba->host, 0, 0, > + ufshcd_upiu_wlun_to_scsi_wlun(UFS_UPIU_RPMB_WLUN), > + NULL); These __scsi_add_device() calls for W-LUs increase the module reference count of ufshcd.ko by three. But no one calls scsi_device_put() for these W-LUs, so it is impossible to unload ufshcd.ko. There are scsi_remove_device() calls for W-LUs in ufshcd_scsi_remove_wlus(), But these calls do nothing (please see a comment below). I could fix this issue by putting scsi_device_put() just after each __scsi_add_device() call. I'll prepare a patch if I haven't missed something. > + if (IS_ERR(hba->sdev_rpmb)) { > + ret = PTR_ERR(hba->sdev_rpmb); > + hba->sdev_rpmb = NULL; > + goto remove_sdev_boot; > + } > + goto out; > + > +remove_sdev_boot: > + scsi_remove_device(hba->sdev_boot); > +remove_sdev_ufs_device: > + scsi_remove_device(hba->sdev_ufs_device); > +out: > + return ret; > +} > + > +/** > + * ufshcd_scsi_remove_wlus - Removes the W-LUs which were added by > + * ufshcd_scsi_add_wlus() > + * @hba: per-adapter instance > + * > + */ > +static void ufshcd_scsi_remove_wlus(struct ufs_hba *hba) { > + if (hba->sdev_ufs_device) { > + scsi_remove_device(hba->sdev_ufs_device); > + hba->sdev_ufs_device = NULL; > + } > + > + if (hba->sdev_boot) { > + scsi_remove_device(hba->sdev_boot); > + hba->sdev_boot = NULL; > + } > + > + if (hba->sdev_rpmb) { > + scsi_remove_device(hba->sdev_rpmb); > + hba->sdev_rpmb = NULL; > + } > +} When ufshcd_scsi_remove_wlus() is called in ufshcd_remove(), these three W-LU devices have already been deleted by scsi_remove_host() which is called just before ufshcd_scsi_remove_wlus(). The scsi device state of these W-LU devices is SDEV_DEL at this time, and scsi_remove_device() does nothing. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
