I think the better question is, *why* does the idr_find() return NULL? I don't think it should, under any circumstances. I fear adding the check here papers over some other problem, taking us further away from the root cause.
Also, can you reproduce this on a recent upstream kernel? The aux device nodes were introduced in kernel v4.6. Whatever you reproduced on v3.10 is pretty much irrelevant for upstream.
BR, Jani.
I have not been able to reproduce this problem.
mknod /dev/foo c <drm_dp_aux major> 255 cat /dev/foo
should do it.
How do I determine <drm_dp_aux major>?
ls,file,stat. Take your pick.
Problem here is I can't ls,file,stat /dev/foo until after it's created, but I need to know the drm_dp_aux major number befroe I can use mknod.
What am I missing here?
udev/whatever should create a bunch of these for you so you can check from them. If not, then dig around in /sys/class/drm_dp_aux_dev.
