Description Jane Lv 2007-08-09 05:04:16 UTC
Description of problem:
I tested Intel ICH9 audio driver on Intel Weybridge SDV platform w/ RHEL5.1 beta
x86_64 version. 
System always got crash in the interrupt handler when plugging in or plugging
out mic from the front jack.

The codec is SigmaTel STAC9274D.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Boot up the kernel, try to plug in or plug out mic from the from jack.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
System crashed in interrupt handler.

Here is the log,

 <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception


Expected results:
System is alive and running well.

Additional info:

RHEL5.1-Beta merged the latest ALSA driver into old 2.6.18 kernel.
Sound driver use the work queue to process the jack-sensing interrupt.
However, the work queue interface changes.

In latest kernel, the run_workqueue() looks like:
{
	struct work_struct *work = ***;
	work_func_t f = work->func;
	f(work);
}

In 2.6.18 kernel, the run_workqueue() looks like:
{
	struct work_struct *work = ***;
	work_func_t f = work->func;
	f(work->data);
}

We can see that the argument for the callback function f is different.
The latest ALSA driver uses the latest kernel's work queue interface.
When Redhat merged them to linux2.6.18, they ignored the difference and
the callback function got wrong argument.

Here is patch for bug fix,
