This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: qat - add sysfs_added flag for ras to the 6.7-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: crypto-qat-add-sysfs_added-flag-for-ras.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.7 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 7bcbc82c31ecce1599d08c5d22bc09e701ae6ef1 Author: Damian Muszynski <damian.muszynski@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 21 17:59:45 2023 +0100 crypto: qat - add sysfs_added flag for ras [ Upstream commit 65089000ba8c2ae713ccac6603319143f3e1c08b ] The qat_ras sysfs attribute group is registered within the adf_dev_start() function, alongside other driver components. If any of the functions preceding the group registration fails, the adf_dev_start() function returns, and the caller, to undo the operation, invokes adf_dev_stop() followed by adf_dev_shutdown(). However, the current flow lacks information about whether the registration of the qat_ras attribute group was successful or not. In cases where this condition is encountered, an error similar to the following might be reported: 4xxx 0000:6b:00.0: Starting device qat_dev0 4xxx 0000:6b:00.0: qat_dev0 started 9 acceleration engines 4xxx 0000:6b:00.0: Failed to send init message 4xxx 0000:6b:00.0: Failed to start device qat_dev0 sysfs group 'qat_ras' not found for kobject '0000:6b:00.0' ... sysfs_remove_groups+0x29/0x50 adf_sysfs_stop_ras+0x4b/0x80 [intel_qat] adf_dev_stop+0x43/0x1d0 [intel_qat] adf_dev_down+0x4b/0x150 [intel_qat] ... 4xxx 0000:6b:00.0: qat_dev0 stopped 9 acceleration engines 4xxx 0000:6b:00.0: Resetting device qat_dev0 To prevent attempting to remove attributes from a group that has not been added yet, a flag named 'sysfs_added' is introduced. This flag is set to true upon the successful registration of the attribute group.
