During the development of the physical PCI slot patch series, Gary Hade
kept on reporting strange oopses due to interactions between pci_slot
and acpiphp.
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/28/319
find_root_bridges() unconditionally installs
handle_hotplug_event_bridge() as an ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY handler for all
root bridges.
However, during module cleanup, remove_bridge() will only remove the
notify handler iff the root bridge had a hot-pluggable slot directly
underneath. That is:
root bridge -> hotplug slot
But, if the topology looks like either of the following:
root bridge -> non-hotplug slot
root bridge -> p2p bridge -> hotplug slot
Then we currently do not remove the notify handler from that root
bridge.
This can cause a kernel oops if we modprobe acpiphp later and it gets
loaded somewhere else in memory. If the root bridge then receives a
hotplug event, it will then attempt to call a stale, non-existent notify
handler and we blow up.
Much thanks goes to Gary Hade for his persistent debugging efforts.
