During the development of the physical PCI slot patch series, Gary Hade kept on reporting strange oopses due to interactions between pci_slot and acpiphp. http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/28/319 find_root_bridges() unconditionally installs handle_hotplug_event_bridge() as an ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY handler for all root bridges. However, during module cleanup, remove_bridge() will only remove the notify handler iff the root bridge had a hot-pluggable slot directly underneath. That is: root bridge -> hotplug slot But, if the topology looks like either of the following: root bridge -> non-hotplug slot root bridge -> p2p bridge -> hotplug slot Then we currently do not remove the notify handler from that root bridge. This can cause a kernel oops if we modprobe acpiphp later and it gets loaded somewhere else in memory. If the root bridge then receives a hotplug event, it will then attempt to call a stale, non-existent notify handler and we blow up. Much thanks goes to Gary Hade for his persistent debugging efforts.
