[PATCH 1/2] powerpc/pseries: fix "OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /cpus" during DLPAR

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

 



Commit 215ee763f8cb ("powerpc: pseries: remove dlpar_attach_node dependency on
full path") reworked dlpar_attach_node() to no longer look up the parent
node "/cpus", but instead to have the parent node passed by the caller in the
function parameter list. As a result dlpar_attach_node() is no longer
responsible for freeing the reference to the parent node. However,
commit 215ee763f8cb failed to remove the of_node_put(parent) call in
dlpar_attach_node(), or to take into account that the reference to the
parent in the caller dlpar_cpu_add() needs to be held until after
dlpar_attach_node() returns. As a result doing repeated cpu add/remove dlpar
operations will eventually result in the following error:

OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /cpus

Fix the issue by removing the of_node_put(parent) call from
dlpar_attach_node(), and ensuring that the reference to the parent node
is properly held and released by the caller dlpar_cpu_add().
