Just run minicom -o -c on server (with no getty listening on the other side, a good old legacy uart of x86 box). After more tries with pl2302 it seems possible to reproduce, but it is harder. For now it's rather the second attempt that is eventually successful as getting an Oops, though each time with NULL pointer dereference instead of bad pointer for serial->type. > More useful would be to add some debugging messages to > destroy_serial().

I've added WARN_ON()s in usb_serial_put() and usb_serial_get_by_index() in order to have information on who called us (easier than searching around and adding lots of printk()s and output is also more verbose :) Below, my changes to usb-serial.c and dmesg extracts for crash cases with pl2302 and ftdi_sio. You have guessed right, there are calls to serial_do_free() after destroy_serial() in the crash cases. destroy_serial when disconnecting device and final serial_do_free() when exiting minicom. These are the changes I made to 2.6.31-rc6 to get debugging output: diff --git a/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c b/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c index 99188c9..7859e44 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c +++ b/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c @@ -74,6 +74,8 @@ struct usb_serial *usb_serial_get_by_index(unsigned index) mutex_lock(&table_lock); serial = serial_table[index]; + printk("usb_serial_get_by_index(index %d): @%p\n", index, serial); + WARN_ON(true); if (serial) kref_get(&serial->kref); @@ -135,7 +137,9 @@ static void destroy_serial(struct kref *kref) struct usb_serial_port *port; int i; + printk("destroy_serial(kref @%p)\n", kref); serial = to_usb_serial(kref); + printk(" serial @%p\n", serial); dbg("%s - %s", __func__, serial->type->description); @@ -171,6 +175,8 @@ static void destroy_serial(struct kref *kref) void usb_serial_put(struct usb_serial *serial) { + printk("usb_serial_put(serial @%p)\n", serial); + WARN_ON(true); mutex_lock(&table_lock); kref_put(&serial->kref, destroy_serial); mutex_unlock(&table_lock); @@ -328,6 +334,10 @@ static void serial_do_free(struct usb_serial_port *port) if (port->console) return; + printk(KERN_DEBUG "serial_do_free(port @%p)\n", port); + printk(KERN_DEBUG " serial @%p\n", port ? port->serial : NULL); + printk(KERN_DEBUG " type @%p\n", port && port->serial ? port->serial->type : NULL); + serial = port->serial; owner = serial->type->driver.owner; put_device(&port->dev); dmesg extract for pl2302 attempt [ 79.230040] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 79.396191] usb 2-1: New USB device found, idVendor=067b, idProduct=2303 [ 79.396201] usb 2-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [ 79.396209] usb 2-1: Product: USB-Serial Controller [ 79.396216] usb 2-1: Manufacturer: Prolific Technology Inc.
