From: Corey Minyard <cminy...@mvista.com> Commit 93c303d2045b3 "ipmi_si: Clean up shutdown a bit" didn't copy the behavior of the cleanup in one spot, it needed to check for a non-NULL interface before cleaning it up.
Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminy...@mvista.com> --- This patch should fix the issue. BTW, can you send me at least the IPMI portion of the output of dmidecode for your machine? I have seen a lot of these where the address in the SMBIOS tables is incorrect, and I'm wondering if it's something in the driver, or if it's really the tables that are bad. Thanks for reporting this. On your tested-by I'll send this up to Linus. -corey drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c b/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c index 3d0add6..a5987f8 100644 --- a/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c +++ b/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c @@ -2088,8 +2088,10 @@ static int try_smi_init(struct smi_info *new_smi) return 0; out_err: - ipmi_unregister_smi(new_smi->intf); - new_smi->intf = NULL; + if (new_smi->intf) { + ipmi_unregister_smi(new_smi->intf); + new_smi->intf = NULL; + } kfree(init_name); -- 2.7.4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Openipmi-developer mailing list Openipmi-developer@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openipmi-developer
