A system shutdown can happen at essentially any time, and it's possible that the IPA driver is busy when a shutdown is underway. IPA hardware accesses IMEM and SMEM memory regions using an IOMMU, and at some point during shutdown, needed I/O mappings could become invalid. This could be disastrous for any "in flight" IPA activity. Avoid this by defining a new driver shutdown callback that stops all IPA activity and cleanly shuts down the driver. It merely calls the driver's existing remove callback, reporting the error if it returns one. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
