It is possible to get an interrupt as soon as it is requested. dw_spi_irq does spi_controller_get_devdata(master) and expects it to be different than NULL. However, spi_controller_set_devdata() is called after request_irq(), resulting in the following crash: CPU 0 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00000030, epc == 8058e09c, ra == 8018ff90 [...] Call Trace: [<8058e09c>] dw_spi_irq+0x8/0x64 [<8018ff90>] __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x70/0x1d4 [<80190128>] handle_irq_event_percpu+0x34/0x8c [<801901c4>] handle_irq_event+0x44/0x80 [<801951a8>] handle_level_irq+0xdc/0x194 [<8018f580>] generic_handle_irq+0x38/0x50 [<804c6924>] ocelot_irq_handler+0x104/0x1c0 [<8018f580>] generic_handle_irq+0x38/0x50 [<8075c1d8>] do_IRQ+0x18/0x24 [<804c4714>] plat_irq_dispatch+0xa4/0x150 [<80106ba8>] except_vec_vi_end+0xb8/0xc4 [<8075ba5c>] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x14/0x20 [<801926c8>] __setup_irq+0x53c/0x8e0 [<80192e28>] request_threaded_irq+0xf4/0x1e8 [<8058ed18>] dw_spi_add_host+0x264/0x2c4 [<8058f2ec>] dw_spi_mmio_probe+0x258/0x27c [<8051f4a4>] platform_drv_probe+0x58/0xbc [<8051daa8>] driver_probe_device+0x308/0x40c [<8051dc9c>] __driver_attach+0xf0/0xf8 [<8051b698>] bus_for_each_dev+0x78/0xcc [<8051c2c0>] bus_add_driver+0x1b4/0x228 [<8051e840>] driver_register+0x84/0x154 [<801001d8>] do_one_initcall+0x54/0x1ac [<80880e90>] kernel_init_freeable+0x1ec/0x2ac [<80755310>] kernel_init+0x14/0x110 [<80106698>] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c Code: 00000000 8ca40050 8c820008 <8c420030> 0000000f 3042003f 10400007 00000000 8ca20230 Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/spi/spi-dw.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/spi/spi-dw.c b/drivers/spi/spi-dw.c index f693bfe95ab9..a087464efdd7 100644 --- a/drivers/spi/spi-dw.c +++ b/drivers/spi/spi-dw.c @@ -485,6 +485,8 @@ int dw_spi_add_host(struct device *dev, struct dw_spi *dws) dws->dma_inited = 0; dws->dma_addr = (dma_addr_t)(dws->paddr + DW_SPI_DR); + spi_controller_set_devdata(master, dws); + ret = request_irq(dws->irq, dw_spi_irq, IRQF_SHARED, dev_name(dev), master); if (ret < 0) { @@ -518,7 +520,6 @@ int dw_spi_add_host(struct device *dev, struct dw_spi *dws) } } - spi_controller_set_devdata(master, dws); ret = devm_spi_register_controller(dev, master); if (ret) { dev_err(&master->dev, "problem registering spi master\n"); -- 2.18.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-spi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
