[ Upstream commit 31e4e12e0e9609850cefd4b2e1adf782f56337d6 ]

software_node_get_reference_args() wants to get @index-th element, so
the property value requires at least '(index + 1) * sizeof(*ref)' bytes
but that can not be guaranteed by current OOB check, and may cause OOB
for malformed property.

Fix by using as OOB check '((index + 1) * sizeof(*ref) &gt; prop-&gt;length)'.

fwnode_get_property_reference_args() may not be called with args argument
NULL and while OF already supports this. Add the missing NULL check.

The purpose is to be able to count the references.

After the commit
  46d26819a505 ("software node: implement software_node_unregister()")
has been applied a new helper appears that may be utilised in other places.
For time being there is one such place, i.e. in
software_node_unregister_node_group() which will benefit of the clean up.

Use software_node_unregister() when unregistering group of nodes.

Sometimes it is better to unregister individual nodes instead of trying
to do them all at once with software_node_unregister_nodes(), so create
software_node_unregister() so that you can unregister them one at a
time.

This is especially important when creating nodes in a hierarchy, with
parent -&gt; children representations.  Children always need to be removed
before a parent is, as the swnode logic assumes this is going to be the
case.

Fix up the lib/test_printf.c fwnode_pointer() test which to use this new
function as it had the problem of tearing things down in the backwards
order.

<id>urn:sha1:7589238a8cf37331607c3222a64ac3140b29532d</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 3df85a1ae51f6b256982fe9d17c2dc5bfb4cc402.

The reverted commit says "It's possible to release the node ID
immediately when fwnode_remove_software_node() is called, no need to
wait for software_node_release() with that." However, releasing the node
ID before waiting for software_node_release() to be called causes the
node ID to be released before the kobject and the underlying sysfs
entry; this means there is a period of time where a sysfs entry exists
that is associated with an unallocated node ID.

Once consequence of this is that there is a race condition where it is
possible to call fwnode_create_software_node() with no parent node
specified (NULL) and have it fail with -EEXIST because the node ID that
was assigned is still associated with a stale sysfs entry that hasn't
been cleaned up yet.

Although it is difficult to reproduce this race condition under normal
conditions, it can be deterministically reproduced with the following
minconfig on UML:

CONFIG_KUNIT_DRIVER_PE_TEST=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_TIMERS=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE=y
CONFIG_KUNIT=y

Running the tests with this configuration causes the following failure:

&lt;snip&gt;
kobject: 'node0' ((____ptrval____)): kobject_release, parent (____ptrval____) (delayed 400)
	ok 1 - pe_test_uints
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/kernel/software_nodes/node0'
CPU: 0 PID: 28 Comm: kunit_try_catch Not tainted 5.6.0-rc3-next-20200227 #14
&lt;snip&gt;
kobject_add_internal failed for node0 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.
kobject: 'node0' ((____ptrval____)): kobject_release, parent (____ptrval____) (delayed 100)
	# pe_test_uint_arrays: ASSERTION FAILED at drivers/base/test/property-entry-test.c:123
	Expected node is not error, but is: -17
	not ok 2 - pe_test_uint_arrays
