[PATCH v2 0/8] coresight: Fix device registration and unregistration

[PATCH v2 0/8] coresight: Fix device registration and unregistration

[Leo Yan]

This series is to fix and refactor CoreSight device registration and
unregistration, it can be divided into three small parts:

  Patches 01-03: Three fixes for memory leak, device reference and mutex
                 protection.
  Patches 04-05: Move connection cleanup operations into
                 coresight_remove_conns().
  Patches 06-08: Refactor error handling in coresight_register().

This series is verified on Juno board with kmemleak detector.

For kmemleak verifying:

  echo clear > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
  insmod coresight modules
  rmmod coresight modules
  echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak

The result shows no memory leak during a cycle of device registration
and unregistration.

Changes in v2:
- Refined the commit log in patch 06 (Suzuki).
- Unified to call coresight_unregister() for error handling (Suzuki).
- Refactor connection and sysfs group release.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20250512154108.23920-1-leo.yan@arm.com/

This is wrong. This would mean, the array gets released when the "dev" 
goes away and thats not good. This is a per-driver list, not a 
per-device list. Also, please remember that, we need to keep that node alive
when the device goes away, to make sure to allocate the same device name
when if/it comes back.  May be, you could release the  list and array, 
when the "driver" goes away.


Kind regards

Indeed.  In next spin, I will to fix the leak in module exit.

Thanks for pointing this out.

[PATCH v2 2/8] coresight: Get parent device reference after sink ID map allocation

[Leo Yan]

The parent device's reference count is incremented before allocating the
sink ID map.  If the allocation fails, the reference count is not
decremented, preventing proper cleanup.

Fix this by incrementing the reference count only after the sink ID map
is successfully allocated.

[PATCH v2 3/8] coresight: Protect unregistration with mutex

[Leo Yan]

The device registration is protected by CoreSight mutex to ensure the
atomic operations when adding a device onto bus.  One the other hand,
the locking is absent when unregister a device.

Use mutex to ensure atomicity on device unregistration.  During
unregistration, unbinding the associated CTI device is not included in
the locking region, as CTI has its own locking mechanism.

[PATCH v2 5/8] coresight: Refactor sysfs connection group cleanup

[PATCH v2 6/8] coresight: Move sink validation into etm_perf_add_symlink_sink()

[Leo Yan]

Move the sink device type checks into etm_perf_add_symlink_sink(), and
return -EOPNOTSUPP for unsupported devices.  This simplifies the
registration flow to invoke etm_perf_add_symlink_sink() unconditionally.

[PATCH v2 7/8] coresight: Do not mix success path with failure handling

[Leo Yan]

Separate the failure handling path from the successful case.  Use the
'out_unlock' label only for failure handling.

[PATCH v2 8/8] coresight: Unify error handling in coresight_register()

[Leo Yan]

Unify error handling during registration:

1) Failures before device registration are handled by err_out, which
   releases platform data.

2) Jump to the out_unlock label on failures after device registration
   to unwind the flow via coresight_unregister().

The "registered" variable is no longer used, remove it.
