Subject: [PATCH v11 10/10] PCI: of: Avoid np->data usage for the node changeset
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 10:01:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260909080114.591938-11-herve.codina@bootlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260909080114.591938-1-herve.codina@bootlin.com>
of_pci_remove_node() and of_pci_remove_host_bridge_node() check
whether the node is dynamic but not whether it has valid private data.
During the node creation, an OF changeset is used and this changeset is
stored in np->data to be available for removal functions.
If, for instance, a PCI host bridge is created using a device-tree
overlay, the related node will have the dynamic flag set but np->data
will be NULL. This leads to NULL pointer dereferences.
Checking for a non-NULL np->data pointer to determine if the node has
been created by the PCI node creation process is not enough. Indeed,
on some platforms like PowerPC, the OF_RECONFIG_ATTACH_NODE notifier
(e.g., in the pci_dn_reconfig_notifier() function) intercepts node
additions and populates np->data with its own structure, such as a
struct pci_dn. In that case, np->data is not NULL but it is not related
to our changeset stored during the PCI node process creation.
Avoid the usage of np->data to store the changeset used during the PCI
node creation. Store our changeset in a more relevant structure: either
struct pci_dev when the node is created for a PCI device or struct
pci_host_bridge when the node is created for the PCI host bridge.
With that done, no ambiguity remains on removal. Indeed, this changeset,
if non-NULL, is the one used during PCI node creation. Check and use
this changeset on the removal process.
Fixes: 407d1a51921e ("PCI: Create device tree node for bridge")
Fixes: 1f340724419e ("PCI: of: Create device tree PCI host bridge node")
