During regcache_init, if client has not passed the default data of cached register then it is directly read from the hw to initialize cache. This hw register read happens before cache ops are initialized and hence avoiding register read to check for the data available on cache or not by enabling flag of cache_bypass. Signed-off-by: Laxman Dewangan <ldewangan@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Observed that regcache_hw_init() is gettign called before cache->ops->init() hapens. The function regcache_hw_init() is calling the regmap_bulk_read() which internally calls the regcache-read() and ending with cache->ops->read() and this cause of system crash as the cache ops are not initialized. With this patch, avoiding the regcache-read() from regmap_bulk_read() by enabling cache bypass. drivers/base/regmap/regcache.c | 5 +++++ 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/base/regmap/regcache.c b/drivers/base/regmap/regcache.c index a10e81c..853dfff 100644 --- a/drivers/base/regmap/regcache.c +++ b/drivers/base/regmap/regcache.c @@ -35,12 +35,17 @@ static int regcache_hw_init(struct regmap *map) return -EINVAL; if (!map->reg_defaults_raw) { + u32 cache_bypass = map->cache_bypass; dev_warn(map->dev, "No cache defaults, reading back from HW\n"); + + /* Bypass the cache access till data read from HW*/ + map->cache_bypass = 1; tmp_buf = kmalloc(map->cache_size_raw, GFP_KERNEL); if (!tmp_buf) return -EINVAL; ret = regmap_bulk_read(map, 0, tmp_buf, map->num_reg_defaults_raw); + map->cache_bypass = cache_bypass; if (ret < 0) { kfree(tmp_buf); return ret; -- 1.7.1.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
