From 105bb2698b54a838165947199f1c8be5c2e7d9bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Albrecht=20Dre=DF?= Date: Fri, 3 Jun 2005 20:52:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] ARM: 2694/1: [s3c2410/dma] release irq properly to fix kernel oops MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Patch from Albrecht Dreß Problem: When a module requests a DMA channel via the function s3c2410_dma_request(), this function requests the appropriate irq under the name of the client module. When the client module is unloaded, it calls s3c2410_dma_free() which does not free the irq. Consequently, when e.g. running "cat /proc/interrupts", the irq owner points to freed memory, leading to a kernel oops.
