From 263f7d61a4201cde16849b2d016251806e7418be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fan Wu Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 13:53:06 +0000 Subject: usb: typec: qcom-pmic-typec: disable cc_debounce_dwork on stop cc_debounce_dwork is queued from the set_cc() and start_toggling() callbacks, which run from TCPM's kthread worker. port_stop() returns before tcpm_unregister_port() destroys that worker. Flushing the worker during unregister may therefore run a callback which queues the delayed work after port_stop() has returned. The delayed work can then run after devres has freed pmic_typec_port. Use disable_delayed_work_sync() in port_stop() to cancel a pending instance and prevent the TCPM callbacks from queueing another one. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

You can +check the capability of your kernel, in most cases, by looking into config file +within the /boot directory. + +Do I have root access to the system? +------------------------------------ + +Are you easily able to replace the module in question or to install a new +kernel? + +In that case your range of available tools is a lot bigger, you can find the +tools in the :doc:`/process/debugging/driver_development_debugging_guide`. + +Is timing a factor? +------------------- + +It is important to understand if the problem you want to debug manifests itself +consistently (i.e. given a set of inputs you always get the same, incorrect +output), or inconsistently. If it manifests itself inconsistently, some timing +factor might be at play. If inserting delays into the code does change the +behavior, then quite likely timing is a factor. + +When timing does alter the outcome of the code execution using a simple +printk() for debugging purposes may not work, a similar alternative is to use +trace_printk() , which logs the debug messages to the trace file instead of the +kernel log. + +**Copyright** ©2024 : Collabora -- cgit v1.3.1
