[PATCH] serial: amba-pl011: do not request memory region twice

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

 



The driver attempts to request and release the IO memory region for a uart
port twice:

First during the probe() function devm_ioremap_resource() is used to
allocate and map the ports memory.
Then a combo of pl011_config_port() and pl011_release_port() is used to
request/release the same memory area. These functions are called by the
serial core as soon as the uart is registered/unregistered.

However since the allocation request via devm_ioremap_resource() already
succeeds, the attempt to claim the memory again via pl011_config_port()
fails. This failure remains unnoticed, since the concerning return value is
not evaluated.
Later at module unload also the attempt to release the unclaimed memory
in pl011_release_port() fails. This time the failure results in a “Trying
to free nonexistent resource" warning printed by the serial core.

Fix these issues by removing the callbacks that implement the redundant
memory allocation/release.

This patch was tested on a 5.10 Raspberry Pi kernel with a CM3.
