for_each_child_of_node performs an of_node_get on each iteration, so of_node_put is required on break out of the loop. This is done using Coccinelle. And semantic patch used for this is as follows: @@ expression root,e; local idexpression child; @@ for_each_child_of_node(root, child) { ... when != of_node_put(child) when != e = child ( return child; | + of_node_put(child); ? return ...; ) ... } Signed-off-by: Vaishali Thakkar <vthakkar1994@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/pinctrl/freescale/pinctrl-imx1-core.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/pinctrl/freescale/pinctrl-imx1-core.c b/drivers/pinctrl/freescale/pinctrl-imx1-core.c index 88a7fac..acaf84c 100644 --- a/drivers/pinctrl/freescale/pinctrl-imx1-core.c +++ b/drivers/pinctrl/freescale/pinctrl-imx1-core.c @@ -538,8 +538,10 @@ static int imx1_pinctrl_parse_functions(struct device_node *np, func->groups[i] = child->name; grp = &info->groups[grp_index++]; ret = imx1_pinctrl_parse_groups(child, grp, info, i++); - if (ret == -ENOMEM) + if (ret == -ENOMEM) { + of_node_put(child); return ret; + } } return 0; @@ -582,8 +584,10 @@ static int imx1_pinctrl_parse_dt(struct platform_device *pdev, for_each_child_of_node(np, child) { ret = imx1_pinctrl_parse_functions(child, info, ifunc++); - if (ret == -ENOMEM) + if (ret == -ENOMEM) { + of_node_put(child); return -ENOMEM; + } } return 0; -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-gpio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
