IFS test image is unnecessarily loaded during driver initialization. Drop image loading during ifs_init() and improve module load time. With this change, user has to load one when starting the tests. As a consequence, make ifs_sem static as it is only used within sysfs.c Reviewed-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx> Suggested-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jithu Joseph <jithu.joseph@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/ifs.h | 2 -- drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/core.c | 6 +----- drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/sysfs.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/ifs.h b/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/ifs.h index 73c8e91cf144..3ff1d9aaeaa9 100644 --- a/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/ifs.h +++ b/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/ifs.h @@ -229,6 +229,4 @@ void ifs_load_firmware(struct device *dev); int do_core_test(int cpu, struct device *dev); const struct attribute_group **ifs_get_groups(void); -extern struct semaphore ifs_sem; - #endif diff --git a/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/core.c b/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/core.c index 27204e3d674d..5fb7f655c291 100644 --- a/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/core.c +++ b/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/core.c @@ -51,12 +51,8 @@ static int __init ifs_init(void) ifs_device.misc.groups = ifs_get_groups(); if ((msrval & BIT(ifs_device.data.integrity_cap_bit)) && - !misc_register(&ifs_device.misc)) { - down(&ifs_sem); - ifs_load_firmware(ifs_device.misc.this_device); - up(&ifs_sem); + !misc_register(&ifs_device.misc)) return 0; - } return -ENODEV; } diff --git a/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/sysfs.c b/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/sysfs.c index 37d8380d6fa8..65dd6fea5342 100644 --- a/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/sysfs.c +++ b/drivers/platform/x86/intel/ifs/sysfs.c @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@ * Protects against simultaneous tests on multiple cores, or * reloading can file while a test is in progress */ -DEFINE_SEMAPHORE(ifs_sem); +static DEFINE_SEMAPHORE(ifs_sem); /* * The sysfs interface to check additional details of last test -- 2.25.1
