When we moved to FreeBSD 7 from 6, issuing a kldunload for usb devices
started causing a kernel panic is a USB device was still plugged in
(like a keyboard). The kldunload is done as part of an rc.d script
that unloads usb since it's not generally needed by our product unless
we mounted the root volume from a USB stick.
The order doesn't matter much, but doing:
kldunload ucom
kldunload umass
kldunload usb
panics with this stack:
panic @ time 1287356740.252, thread 0xffffff0016bd64a0: Fatal trap 12:

The problem is that device_delete_child will recursively call
device_delete_child before calling device_detach(). When
device_detach resolves to uhub_detach, it attempts to call
usb_disconnect_port() which will iterate over the subdevs array. Each
of the pointers of the subdevs array is pointing into already-free'd
storage; the free(9) came from the recursive call to
device_delete_child(). In this case the code is trying to dereference
0xdeadc0dedeadc0de since this is INVARIANTS with the malloc poisoning
on free(9).
So questions:
(1) is there a simple fix, like defining a devclass_t for the port
device, and having it do a detach method cleanup instead of
uhub_detach()? I wasn't sure what to put in for the match method,
though.
(2) reorder the device_detach() with the recursive
device_delete_child() loop in device_delete_child()? This makes me
pretty nervous as I don't know what else may break, possibly subtly.
(3) just don't kldunload?
I assume this doesn't happen in stable/8 and later due to the USB
stack rewrite, but I haven't actually checked.
Thanks,
matthew
