device property: Make modifications of fwnode "flags" thread safe

2026-05-07T04:11:32+00:00

commit f72e77c33e4b5657af35125e75bab249256030f3 upstream. In various places in the kernel, we modify the fwnode "flags" member by doing either: fwnode->flags |= SOME_FLAG; fwnode->flags &= ~SOME_FLAG; This type of modification is not thread-safe. If two threads are both mucking with the flags at the same time then one can clobber the other. While flags are often modified while under the "fwnode_link_lock", this is not universally true. Create some accessor functions for setting, clearing, and testing the FWNODE flags and move all users to these accessor functions. New accessor functions use set_bit() and clear_bit(), which are thread-safe.

If the of_changeset_add_property() function call fails, then this code frees "new_pp" and then dereference it on the next line. Return the error code directly instead.

of: dynamic: Fix memleak when of_pci_add_properties() failed

2025-08-20T23:37:51+00:00

When of_pci_add_properties() failed, of_changeset_destroy() is called to free the changeset. And of_changeset_destroy() puts device tree node in each entry but does not free property in the entry. This leads to memory leak in the failure case. In of_changeset_add_prop_helper(), add the property to the device tree node deadprops list. Thus, the property will also be freed along with device tree node.

of: dynamic: Add of_changeset_update_prop_string

2024-11-27T11:03:48+00:00

Add a helper function to add string property updates to an OF changeset. This is similar to of_changeset_add_prop_string(), but instead of adding the property (and failing if it exists), it will update the property. This shall be used later in the DT hardware prober.

Use the relatively new scope based kfree() cleanup to simplify error handling. Doing so reduces the chances of memory leaks and simplifies error paths by avoiding the need for goto statements.
