Subject: Problem with 4cec16861a40 ("PCI/ASPM: Convert to use match_string() helper")
Date: Thu, 2 Aug 2018 20:13:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56e85d14-786d-02b9-b816-7e8c6cecc254@gmail.com> (raw)

I wondered why my system gets warmer than usual and eventually found that
every write to /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy returns EINVAL.

Reason is mentioned change, using match_string() is wrong when used with
sysfs because sysfs strings have a trailing newline. Seems like the patch
wasn't tested.
__sysfs_match_string() has to be used instead. I checked and this fixes
the issue. 

Rgds, Heiner
