[PATCH 10/16] iwlagn: power up device before initializing EEPROM

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@xxxxxxxxx>

A recent change optimized the power usage by the device by only powering it
up during EEPROM load if it is required (for OTP devices). This change causes
an error on the 1000 series devices during module load.

The error looks as follows:
[ 1624.024524] iwlagn: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux, 1.3.27kds

[ 1624.093065] iwlagn: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -2

Adding a dump_stack() to where that error is printed shows the following:

We know that the routines in this trace, iwlcore_eeprom_acquire_semaphore
and iwlcore_eeprom_verify_signature, only access CSR registers and thus do
not need the device to be awake if it is EEPROM. But for OTP it is required
for the device to be awake to read these registers. Ensure device is awake
before accessing these registers.
