commit 07fd339b2c253205794bea5d9b4b7548a4546c56 upstream.

The function testdrv_probe() retrieves the device_node from the PCI
device, applies an overlay, and then immediately calls of_node_put(dn).
This releases the reference held by the PCI core, potentially freeing
the node if the reference count drops to zero. Later, the same freed
pointer 'dn' is passed to of_platform_default_populate(), leading to a
use-after-free.

The reference to pdev-&gt;dev.of_node is owned by the device model and
should not be released by the driver. Remove the erroneous of_node_put()
to prevent premature freeing.

commit faecdd423c27f0d6090156a435ba9dbbac0eaddb upstream.

The variable 'parent' is assigned the value of 'nchangeset' earlier in the
function, meaning both point to the same struct device_node. The call to
of_node_put(nchangeset) can decrement the reference count to zero and
free the node if there are no other holders. After that, the code still
uses 'parent' to check for the presence of a property and to read a
string property, leading to a use-after-free.

Fix this by moving the of_node_put() call after the last access to
'parent', avoiding the UAF.

<title>device property: Make modifications of fwnode "flags" thread safe</title>

commit f72e77c33e4b5657af35125e75bab249256030f3 upstream.

In various places in the kernel, we modify the fwnode "flags" member
by doing either:
  fwnode-&gt;flags |= SOME_FLAG;
  fwnode-&gt;flags &amp;= ~SOME_FLAG;

This type of modification is not thread-safe. If two threads are both
mucking with the flags at the same time then one can clobber the
other.

While flags are often modified while under the "fwnode_link_lock",
this is not universally true.

Create some accessor functions for setting, clearing, and testing the
FWNODE flags and move all users to these accessor functions. New
accessor functions use set_bit() and clear_bit(), which are
thread-safe.

commit 48e6a9c4a20870e09f85ff1a3628275d6bce31c0 upstream.

Calling of_platform_populate() without a match table will only populate
the immediate child nodes under /firmware. This is usually fine, but in
the case of something like a "simple-mfd" node such as
"raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware", those child nodes will not be populated.
And subsequent calls won't work either because the /firmware node is
marked as processed already.

Switch the call to of_platform_default_populate() to solve this problem.
It should be a nop for existing cases.

of_find_node_by_path() returns a device_node with its refcount

continues to the next iteration without calling of_node_put(), causing
a reference count leak.

[ Upstream commit 3e8ade58b71b48913d21b647b2089e03e81f117e ]

Commit 8a6e02d0c00e ("of: reserved_mem: Restructure how the reserved
memory regions are processed") changed the processing order of reserved
memory regions, causing elfcorehdr to overlap with dynamically allocated
reserved memory regions during kdump kernel boot.

The issue occurs because:
1. kexec-tools allocates elfcorehdr in the last crashkernel reserved
   memory region and passes it to the second kernel
2. The problematic commit moved dynamic reserved memory allocation
   (like bman-fbpr) to occur during fdt_scan_reserved_mem(), before
   elfcorehdr reservation in fdt_reserve_elfcorehdr()
3. bman-fbpr with 16MB alignment requirement can get allocated at
   addresses that overlap with the elfcorehdr location
4. When fdt_reserve_elfcorehdr() tries to reserve elfcorehdr memory,
   overlap detection identifies the conflict and skips reservation
5. kdump kernel fails with "Unable to handle kernel paging request"
   because elfcorehdr memory is not properly reserved

The boot log:
Before 8a6e02d0c00e:
  OF: fdt: Reserving 1 KiB of memory at 0xf4fff000 for elfcorehdr
  OF: reserved mem: 0xf3000000..0xf3ffffff bman-fbpr

After 8a6e02d0c00e:
  OF: reserved mem: 0xf4000000..0xf4ffffff bman-fbpr
  OF: fdt: elfcorehdr is overlapped

Fix this by ensuring elfcorehdr reservation occurs before dynamic
reserved memory allocation.

<title>of: Skip devicetree kunit tests when RISCV+ACPI doesn't populate root node</title>

[ Upstream commit 546dbb0223102813ffb5bbcb9443a47c3183f195 ]

Starting with commit 69a8b62a7aa1 ("riscv: acpi: avoid errors caused by
probing DT devices when ACPI is used"), riscv images no longer populate
devicetree if ACPI is enabled. This causes unit tests to fail which require
the root node to be set.

  # Subtest: of_dtb
  # module: of_test
  1..2
  # of_dtb_root_node_found_by_path: EXPECTATION FAILED at drivers/of/of_test.c:21
  Expected np is not null, but is
  # of_dtb_root_node_found_by_path: pass:0 fail:1 skip:0 total:1
  not ok 1 of_dtb_root_node_found_by_path
  # of_dtb_root_node_populates_of_root: EXPECTATION FAILED at drivers/of/of_test.c:31

  # of_dtb_root_node_populates_of_root: pass:0 fail:1 skip:0 total:1

Skip those tests for RISCV if the root node is not populated.

<title>of: unittest: Fix device reference count leak in of_unittest_pci_node_verify</title>

commit a8de554774ae48efbe48ace79f8badae2daa2bf1 upstream.

In of_unittest_pci_node_verify(), when the add parameter is false,
device_find_any_child() obtains a reference to a child device. This
function implicitly calls get_device() to increment the device's
reference count before returning the pointer. However, the caller
fails to properly release this reference by calling put_device(),
leading to a device reference count leak. Add put_device() in the else
branch immediately after child_dev is no longer needed.

As the comment of device_find_any_child states: "NOTE: you will need
to drop the reference with put_device() after use".
