Description Felipe Alfaro Solana 2003-08-19 04:27:14 UTC

Distribution: 
Red Hat Linux 9.0.93 
 
Hardware Environment: 
NEC Chrom@ laptop 
Intel 440BX chipset 
Pentium III 700 Mhz 
Texas Instruments PCI4450 PC card Cardbus Controller 
3Com Corporation 3CCFE575CT Cyclone CardBus (rev 10) 
 
Software Environment: 
Red Hat Linux 9.0.93 
 
Problem Description: 
When unloading the 3c59x module by running "rmmod 3c59x", I get some kernel 
oopses complaining that the 3c59x device driver does not have a release() 
function. 
 
I have attached the output of "lspci -vvv" of the running kernel, plus the 
output of the "dmesg" command and the "config" used to build the kernel. 
 
Steps to reproduce: 
Try unloading the 3c59x module by running "rmmod 3c59x" and the mentioned 
kernel oops will happen.

Should be fixed in the latest bk tree.  Can you try 2.6.0-test3-bk7 or wait
until 2.6.0-test4?

Seems to be fixed in 2.6.0-test9: rmmod'ing 3c59x no longer causes any kernel 
oops.
