Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2017 13:16:49 +0200 From: Greg KH <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: devel@...verdev.osuosl.org, netdev@...r.kernel.org, samuel@...tiz.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, kernel test robot <fengguang.wu@...el.com>, Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@...ux-m68k.org> Subject: [PATCH v3 net-next] staging: irda: fix init level for irda core When moving the IRDA code out of net/ into drivers/staging/irda/net, the link order changes when IRDA is built into the kernel. That causes a kernel crash at boot time as netfilter isn't initialized yet. To fix this, move the init call level of the irda core to be device_initcall() as the link order keeps this being initialized at the correct time. Reported-by: kernel test robot <fengguang.wu@...el.com> Reported-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@...ux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> --- v3 - just change the initcall level, works so much simpler, thanks to DaveM for the idea. v2 - don't force irda to be a module, make the Makefiles put irda back where it was before in the link order. drivers/staging/irda/net/irmod.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/irda/net/irmod.c b/drivers/staging/irda/net/irmod.c index c5e35b85c477..4319f4ff66b0 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/irda/net/irmod.c +++ b/drivers/staging/irda/net/irmod.c @@ -190,7 +190,7 @@ static void __exit irda_cleanup(void) * * Jean II */ -subsys_initcall(irda_init); +device_initcall(irda_init); module_exit(irda_cleanup); MODULE_AUTHOR("Dag Brattli <dagb@...uit.no> & Jean Tourrilhes <jt@....hp.com>"); -- 2.14.1
