| Series | [v1] Moving init_completion before request_irq | expand |
Hello Kshitiz & Ahmad, Thus wrote Ahmad Fatoum (a.fatoum@pengutronix.de): > > + init_completion(&rngc->rng_op_done); > > + > > ret = devm_request_irq(&pdev->dev, > > irq, imx_rngc_irq, 0, pdev->name, (void *)rngc); > This should probably be moved below imx_rngc_irq_mask_clear(rngc). > init_completion can stay where it is. That way: I agree with Ahmad that this is the better approach. We should clear pending irqs and disable interrupt sources on the hardware level before we install our irq handler. Best regards, Martin > - You initialize rngc fully before registering the IRQ handler > - You don't handle pending IRQs that you want to dismiss anyway > - If the IRQ happens to be because of a SEED_DONE due to a previous > boot stage, you don't end up completing the completion prematurely.

Issue: While servicing interrupt, trying to access variable rng_op_done, which is not yet initalized hence causing kernel to crash while booting. Fix: Moving initialization of rng_op_done before request_irq.
