Kernel起不来出现panic

转载自展讯FAQ

[QUESTION]
机器起来的时候，死在kernel中，系统起不来。出现panic，有出现如下红色log,其PC指针和LR指针指到了函数：

register_early_suspend，

[    4.641530] c2 PC is at register_early_suspend+0x20/0x88
[    4.646827] c2 LR is at register_early_suspend+0x14/0x88

[ANSWER]

从堆栈里面看

[    5.555274] c2 [<c00710f4>] (register_early_suspend+0x20/0x88) from [<c0879d84>] (goodix_ts_init+0x60/0xb0)
[    5.565002] c2 [<c0879d84>] (goodix_ts_init+0x60/0xb0) from [<c00094fc>] (do_one_initcall+0xcc/0x180)
[    5.574218] c2 [<c00094fc>] (do_one_initcall+0xcc/0x180) from [<c0851b70>] (kernel_init_freeable+0xf4/0x1c0)
[    5.584039] c2 [<c0851b70>] (kernel_init_freeable+0xf4/0x1c0) from [<c05c1c1c>] (kernel_init+0x8/0xe4)
[    5.593338] c2 [<c05c1c1c>] (kernel_init+0x8/0xe4) from [<c000f518>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c)

从log看问题是register_early_suspend注册所导致，而代码中有goodix_ts_init函数，但去掉这个模块问题还是存在，其实这个问题的本质是register_early_suspend注册的时候出现了空指针所导致，可以在kernel中查找有调用了register_early_suspend的驱动，最终原因是：如下代码红色的部分被注释掉了，就是说register_early_suspend注册完成后就立即kfree释放了，从而导致出现了空指针被使用，导致panic

register_early_suspend(&led->early_suspend);
#endif

 led->sprd_torch_close(led);//disabled by default
 
 //return 0;
 
get_clk_fail:
config_of_fail:
 kfree(led);
 return ret;
