| Subject | [PATCH RESEND] driver-core: fix modparam async_probe request |
| Message-ID | <qRmhY-4D4-11@gated-at.bofh.it> |
From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@suse.com>
Commit f2411da746985 ("driver-core: add driver module
asynchronous probe support") added async probe support,
in two forms:
* in-kernel driver specification annotation
* generic async_probe module parameter (modprobe foo async_probe)
To support the generic kernel parameter parse_args() was
extended via commit ecc8617053e0 ("module: add extra
argument for parse_params() callback") however commit
failed to f2411da746985 failed to add the required argument.
This causes a crash then whenever async_probe generic
module parameter is used. This was overlooked when the
form in which in-kernel async probe support was reworked
a bit... Fix this as originally intended.

Resending and addressing Rusty, the other patch I sent on Dec 19
was addressed to Greg by mistake. Sorry about that.

Why do we need this chunk? We only call unknown_module_param_cb() from
one place and with your chunk below we do know that "mod" is never NULL.

I believe this is the only change that is needed.

To prevent future bugs that might use this incorrectly.

For the fix yes, that is true. We could split this in two. Up to Rusty.

Confused me, too. This function is static, so it's pretty clearly
only called from one place.
I've applied the minimal fix, as below (and changed the Subject prefix
to "modules").
Thanks!
