USB: ulpi: fix memory leak on registration failure

2026-07-24T13:48:52+00:00

commit 8af6812795869a66e9b26044f455b13deecdb69c upstream. The allocated device name is never freed on early ULPI device registration failures. Fix this by initialising the device structure earlier and releasing the initial reference whenever registration fails.

usb: ulpi: fix memory leak on ulpi_register() error paths

2026-06-01T15:29:23+00:00

commit 0b9fcab1b8608d429e5f239afb197de928d4de7d upstream. Commit 01af542392b5 ("usb: ulpi: fix double free in ulpi_register_interface() error path") removed kfree(ulpi) from ulpi_register_interface() to fix a double-free when device_register() fails. But when ulpi_of_register() or ulpi_read_id() fail before device_register() is called, the ulpi allocation is leaked. Add kfree(ulpi) on both error paths to properly clean up the allocation.

usb: ulpi: fix double free in ulpi_register_interface() error path

2026-04-18T08:31:12+00:00

commit 01af542392b5d41fd659d487015a71f627accce3 upstream. When device_register() fails, ulpi_register() calls put_device() on ulpi->dev. The device release callback ulpi_dev_release() drops the OF node reference and frees ulpi, but the current error path in ulpi_register_interface() then calls kfree(ulpi) again, causing a double free. Let put_device() handle the cleanup through ulpi_dev_release() and avoid freeing ulpi again in ulpi_register_interface().

Revert "usb: ulpi: defer ulpi_register on ulpi_read_id timeout"

2023-01-18T10:45:01+00:00

commit b659b613cea2ae39746ca8bd2b69d1985dd9d770 upstream. This reverts commit 8a7b31d545d3a15f0e6f5984ae16f0ca4fd76aac. This patch results in some qemu test failures, specifically xilinx-zynq-a9 machine and zynq-zc702 as well as zynq-zed devicetree files, when trying to boot from USB drive.

usb: ulpi: defer ulpi_register on ulpi_read_id timeout

2023-01-18T10:44:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8a7b31d545d3a15f0e6f5984ae16f0ca4fd76aac ] Since commit 0f0101719138 ("usb: dwc3: Don't switch OTG -> peripheral if extcon is present") Dual Role support on Intel Merrifield platform broke due to rearranging the call to dwc3_get_extcon(). It appears to be caused by ulpi_read_id() on the first test write failing with -ETIMEDOUT. Currently ulpi_read_id() expects to discover the phy via DT when the test write fails and returns 0 in that case, even if DT does not provide the phy. As a result usb probe completes without phy. Make ulpi_read_id() return -ETIMEDOUT to its user if the first test write fails. The user should then handle it appropriately. A follow up patch will make dwc3_core_init() set -EPROBE_DEFER in this case and bail out.

usb: ulpi: Call of_node_put correctly

2022-02-16T11:54:28+00:00

commit 0a907ee9d95e3ac35eb023d71f29eae0aaa52d1b upstream. of_node_put should always be called on device nodes gotten from of_get_*. Additionally, it should only be called after there are no remaining users. To address the first issue, call of_node_put if later steps in ulpi_register fail. To address the latter, call put_device if device_register fails, which will call ulpi_dev_release if necessary.

usb: common: ulpi: Fix crash in ulpi_match()

2022-02-01T16:25:41+00:00

commit 2e3dd4a6246945bf84ea6f478365d116e661554c upstream. Commit 7495af930835 ("ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: Enable drivers for DragonBoard 410c") enables the CONFIG_PHY_QCOM_USB_HS for the ARM multi_v7_defconfig. Enabling this Kconfig is causing the kernel to crash on the Tegra20 Ventana platform in the ulpi_match() function. The Qualcomm USB HS PHY driver that is enabled by CONFIG_PHY_QCOM_USB_HS, registers a ulpi_driver but this driver does not provide an 'id_table', so when ulpi_match() is called on the Tegra20 Ventana platform, it crashes when attempting to deference the id_table pointer which is not valid. The Qualcomm USB HS PHY driver uses device-tree for matching the ULPI driver with the device and so fix this crash by using device-tree for matching if the id_table is not valid.

USB: ulpi: fix bus-node lookup

2017-11-28T14:17:48+00:00

Fix bus-node lookup during registration, which ended up searching the whole device tree depth-first starting at the parent (or grand parent) rather than just matching on its children. To make things worse, the parent (or grand-parent) node could end being prematurely freed as well.
