[PATCH v2 02/13] of: overlay: Call of_changeset_init() early

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When of_overlay_fdt_apply() fails, the changeset may be partially
applied, and the caller is still expected to call of_overlay_remove() to
clean up this partial state.

However, of_overlay_apply() calls of_resolve_phandles() before
init_overlay_changeset().  Hence if the overlay fails to apply due to an
unresolved symbol, the overlay_changeset.cset.entries list is still
uninitialized, and cleanup will crash with a NULL-pointer dereference in
overlay_removal_is_ok().

Fix this by moving the call to of_changeset_init() from
init_overlay_changeset() to of_overlay_fdt_apply(), where all other
early initialization is done.

Fixes: f948d6d8b792bb90 ("of: overlay: avoid race condition between applying multiple overlays")
