If @chip has a value, the code does one iteration of what it is doing in the first branch of the condition. That is completely bogus semantics to say the least. To sort that out I'll introduce a new field to struct tpm_chip: u64 id; This gets a value from a global count every time a chip is created. The function will become then: struct tpm_chip *tpm_chip_find_get(u64 id) { struct tpm_chup *chip; struct tpm_chip *res = NULL; int chip_num = 0; int chip_prev; mutex_lock(&idr_lock); do { chip_prev = chip_num; chip = idr_get_next(&dev_nums_idr, &chip_num); if (chip && (!id || id == chip->id) && !tpm_try_get_ops(chip)) { res = chip; break; } } while (chip_prev != chip_num); mutex_unlock(&idr_lock); return res; } Thanks for spotting this out. I'll refine the patch. /Jarkko
