That way the order in which you read the diagram is the same as the order in which the events are supposed to occur. Also, the convention is to put events next to each other if they happen at the same time. In your diagram, <1> and <3> are next to each other but they don't happen at the same time. > ============================================== > At *remove USB(3.0) Storage > sequence <1> --> <5> ((Normal Case)) > ============================================== > VOLD > =================================|============ > (uevent) > ______|___________ > |<1> | > | SCSI | > |usb_put_hcd | > |shared_hcd(kref=2)| > |__________________| > ___________________ ________|_________ > |<4> | |<2> | > |dwc3_otg_sm_work | |dwc3_otg_sm_work | > |usb_put_hcd | |usb_put_hcd | > |primary_hcd(kref=1)| |shared_hcd(kref=1)| > |___________________| |__________________| > _________|_________ ________|_________ > |<5> | |<3> | > |New USB BUS #1 | |New USB BUS #2 | > |hcd_release | |hcd_release | > |primary_hcd(kref=0)| |shared_hcd(kref=0)| > | | | | > |bandXX_mutex(free) | -X-cut off)-bandXX_mutex| > |___________________| |__________________| > > ---------------------------------------------- > >The real bug here is that the shared_hcd is released after the > >primary_hcd.

In your diagram, vold releases the shared_hcd (in <5>) after dwc3_otg_sm_work releases the primary_hcd (in <4>). If you change the code so that the shared_hcd takes a reference to the primary_hcd and drops that reference when the shared_hcd is released, this will never occur.
