[PATCH] gpio: Fix potentially NULL handler data passed to chained irqchip handler

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

 



There is possibility with misconfigured pins that interrupt occurs instantly
after setting irq_set_chained_handler() in gpiochip_set_chained_irqchip().
Now if handler gets called before irq_set_handler_data() the handler gets
NULL handler data.

Fix this by moving irq_set_handler_data() call before
irq_set_chained_handler() in gpiochip_set_chained_irqchip().

I noticed this while debugging why commit e1ee5c578fb1 ("pinctrl: baytrail:
Convert to use gpiolib irqchip") was showing a regression on a development
machine with a few misconfigured pins by the BIOS. For those pins
drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-baytrail.c: byt_gpio_irq_handler() was often called
instantly with handler data being NULL and dummy if (vg == NULL) return;
test there didn't allow code further in byt_gpio_irq_handler() to disable
those flooding pins.
