[PATCH 2/2] soc: qcom: smem_state: Add refcounting for the 'state->of_node'

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

 



In qcom_smem_state_register() and qcom_smem_state_release(), we
should better use of_node_get() and of_node_put() for the reference
creation and destruction of 'device_node'.

Fixes: 9460ae2ff308 ("soc: qcom: Introduce common SMEM state machine code")

I have learned that the 'state->of_node' is used to match client
lookups. But I do not know if there will be a premature free or UAF
if we do not refcount this new reference created in to 'state->of_node'.
Please check it carefully.
