This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled mmc: sdhci: Don't signal the sdio irq if it's not setup to the 3.14-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: mmc-sdhci-don-t-signal-the-sdio-irq-if-it-s-not-setup.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From sjoerd.simons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Tue Jan 27 16:19:58 2015 From: Sjoerd Simons <sjoerd.simons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2015 23:07:09 +0100 Subject: mmc: sdhci: Don't signal the sdio irq if it's not setup To: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Chris Ball <chris@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: linux-mmc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Russell King <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Tyler Baker <tyler.baker@xxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <1421705229-20260-1-git-send-email-sjoerd.simons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> From: Sjoerd Simons <sjoerd.simons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [Not needed in newer kernels due to refactoring fixing this issue.] With 3.14.29 (and older kernels) some of my I.mx6 Sabrelite boards were crashing with the following oops: sdhci: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface driver sdhci: Copyright(c) Pierre Ossman sdhci-pltfm: SDHCI platform and OF driver helper sdhci-esdhc-imx 2198000.usdhc: could not get ultra high speed state, work on normal mode mmc0: no vqmmc regulator found mmc0: SDHCI controller on 2198000.usdhc [2198000.usdhc] using ADMA Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 pgd = c0004000 [00000000] *pgd=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.14.29 #1 task: c08a7120 ti: c089c000 task.ti: c089c000 PC is at wake_up_process+0x8/0x40 LR is at sdhci_irq+0x748/0x9c4 Full boot log can be found at: http://storage.kernelci.org/stable/v3.14.29/arm-multi_v7_defconfig/lab-collabora/boot-imx6q-sabrelite.html This happens if the sdhci interrupt status contains SDHCI_INT_CARD_INT, while the sdio irq was never setup. This patch fixes that in a minimal way by checking if the sdio irq was setup. In more recent kernels this bug went away due to refactoring done by Russel King. So an alternative (potentially better?) fix for this patch is to cherrypick the following patches from a recent kernel: 18258f7239a6 - genirq: Provide synchronize_hardirq() bf3b5ec66bd0 - mmc: sdio_irq: rework sdio irq handling 41005003bcaf - mmc: sdhci: clean up interrupt handling 781e989cf593 - mmc: sdhci: convert to new SDIO IRQ handling Signed-off-by: Sjoerd Simons <sjoerd.simons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Russell King <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Tyler Baker <tyler.baker@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c +++ b/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c @@ -2537,7 +2537,7 @@ out: /* * We have to delay this as it calls back into the driver. */ - if (cardint) + if (cardint && host->mmc->sdio_irqs) mmc_signal_sdio_irq(host->mmc); return result; Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from sjoerd.simons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx are queue-3.14/mmc-sdhci-don-t-signal-the-sdio-irq-if-it-s-not-setup.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
