Description Jean Delvare 2012-11-13 13:55:45 UTC
If I run the following on my system:

# while rmmod i7core_edac ; do modprobe i7core_edac ; done

I quickly get a flood of warning and error messages in the kernel logs. First I get 3 correct cycles:

EDAC PCI: Removed device 0 for i7core_edac EDAC PCI controller: DEV 0000:ff:03.0
EDAC MC: Removed device 0 for i7core_edac.c i7 core #0: DEV 0000:ff:03.0
EDAC MC0: Giving out device to 'i7core_edac.c' 'i7 core #0': DEV 0000:ff:03.0
EDAC PCI1: Giving out device to module 'i7core_edac' controller 'EDAC PCI controller': DEV '0000:ff:03.0' (POLLED)
EDAC i7core: Driver loaded, 1 memory controller(s) found.

but then a first failure occurs:

EDAC PCI: Removed device 3 for i7core_edac EDAC PCI controller: DEV 0000:ff:03.0
EDAC MC: Removed device 0 for i7core_edac.c i7 core #0: DEV 0000:ff:03.0
EDAC i7core: Device not found: dev 00.0 PCI ID 8086:2c41

This last message is repeated a hundred times or so, and finally a WARNING followed by a BUG.

A further call to lspci shows the following error:
lspci: Cannot open /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:ff:00.0/resource: No such file or directory
PCI device 0000:ff:00.0 has simply disappeared (symbolic link /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:ff:00.0 points to a nonexistent directory.)
Comment 1 Alan 2012-11-14 12:47:34 UTC
Looks like it corrupts the pci device list and ends up over 'put'ting a pci device

i7core_edac: Fix PCI device reference count

Thanks for the hint, Alan. You were right, the bug is caused by PCI device over-putting. This should fix it. I think more work is needed to get the error paths right though.
Comment 3 Jean Delvare 2012-11-21 10:19:14 UTC
After investigation, the error paths are actually correct.
