Just seconds after I sent that mail I hit this again. The stack traces are exactly the same (except for different starting address of flush_to_ldisc()). The warnings are triggered by: struct usb_serial_port *port = tty->driver_data; ... /* count is managed under the mutex lock for the tty so cannot drop to zero until after the last close completes */ WARN_ON(!port->port.count); BTW, Couple of minutes earlier I got this message: [ 201.629616] cp210x ttyUSB0: usb_serial_generic_resubmit_read_urb - failed resubmitting read urb, error -1 But after that I disconnected and reconnected the device, so this is probably not relevant here.
