for_each_available_child_of_node performs an of_node_get on each iteration, so a return from the middle of the loop requires an of_node_put. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr): // <smpl> @@ expression root,e; local idexpression child; @@ for_each_available_child_of_node(root, child) { ... when != of_node_put(child) when != e = child ( return child; | * return ...; ) ... } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/phy/phy-berlin-sata.c | 20 ++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/phy/phy-berlin-sata.c b/drivers/phy/phy-berlin-sata.c index 77a2e05..f84a33a 100644 --- a/drivers/phy/phy-berlin-sata.c +++ b/drivers/phy/phy-berlin-sata.c @@ -195,7 +195,7 @@ static int phy_berlin_sata_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) struct phy_provider *phy_provider; struct phy_berlin_priv *priv; struct resource *res; - int i = 0; + int ret, i = 0; u32 phy_id; priv = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*priv), GFP_KERNEL); @@ -237,22 +237,27 @@ static int phy_berlin_sata_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) if (of_property_read_u32(child, "reg", &phy_id)) { dev_err(dev, "missing reg property in node %s\n", child->name); - return -EINVAL; + ret = -EINVAL; + goto put_child; } if (phy_id >= ARRAY_SIZE(phy_berlin_power_down_bits)) { dev_err(dev, "invalid reg in node %s\n", child->name); - return -EINVAL; + ret = -EINVAL; + goto put_child; } phy_desc = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*phy_desc), GFP_KERNEL); - if (!phy_desc) - return -ENOMEM; + if (!phy_desc) { + ret = -ENOMEM; + goto put_child; + } phy = devm_phy_create(dev, NULL, &phy_berlin_sata_ops); if (IS_ERR(phy)) { dev_err(dev, "failed to create PHY %d\n", phy_id); - return PTR_ERR(phy); + ret = PTR_ERR(phy); + goto put_child; } phy_desc->phy = phy; @@ -269,6 +274,9 @@ static int phy_berlin_sata_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) phy_provider = devm_of_phy_provider_register(dev, phy_berlin_sata_phy_xlate); return PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(phy_provider); +put_child: + of_node_put(child); + return ret; } static const struct of_device_id phy_berlin_sata_of_match[] = { -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
