device property: Make modifications of fwnode "flags" thread safe

2026-03-26T21:00:59+00:00

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

of: Add of_machine_get_match() helper

2026-03-13T22:00:04+00:00

Currently, there are two helpers to match the root compatible value
against an of_device_id array:
  - of_machine_device_match() returns true if a match is found,
  - of_machine_get_match_data() returns the match data if a match is
    found.
However, there is no helper that returns the actual of_device_id
structure corresponding to the match, leading to code duplication in
various drivers.

Fix this by reworking of_machine_device_match() to return the actual
match structure, and renaming it to of_machine_get_match().
Retain the old of_machine_device_match() functionality using a cheap
static inline wrapper around the new of_machine_get_match() helper.

of: fix reference count leak in of_alias_scan()

2026-01-17T16:20:43+00:00

of_find_node_by_path() returns a device_node with its refcount
incremented. When kstrtoint() fails or dt_alloc() fails, the function
continues to the next iteration without calling of_node_put(), causing
a reference count leak.

Add of_node_put(np) before continue on both error paths to properly
release the device_node reference.

of: Add wrappers to match root node with OF device ID tables

2025-11-27T01:38:24+00:00

Several drivers duplicate same code for getting reference to the root
node, matching it against 'struct of_device_id' table and getting out
the match data from the table entry.

There is a of_machine_compatible_match() wrapper but it takes array of
strings, which is not suitable for many drivers since they want the
driver data associated with each compatible.

Add two wrappers, similar to existing of_device_get_match_data():
1. of_machine_device_match() doing only matching against 'struct
   of_device_id' and returning bool.
2. of_machine_get_match_data() doing the matching and returning
   associated driver data for found compatible.
