Subject: BUG: Freeze upon loading bttv module
Date: Sat, 09 Nov 2013 17:18:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <527E606A.40101@gmx.de> (raw)

Hi,

i'm having problems loading the bttv-module for my bt878 based DVB-T 
card: my system just freezes. Magic-Syskeys also won't work then.
With kernel 3.9.0 this worked just fine. Versions 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12 
won't work.

Last messages on screen with 3.12 upon booting/loading the module is: 
http://abload.de/img/bttv_freezeqxdn2.png

With kernel 3.9 i get an additional line on module loading and the 
device works fine:
[    1.895037] bttv: 0: add subdevice "dvb0"

I traced the problem, it dies somewhere in v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup on 
line 4169 
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/media/pci/bt8xx/bttv-driver.c#n4169

lspci output from kernel 3.9:
