Subject: [PATCH v2 01/10] regmap: fix reinit cache failure handling
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 23:31:49 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113-regmap-improve-v2-1-5dfd6a89078f@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113-regmap-improve-v2-0-5dfd6a89078f@nxp.com>
From: Peng Fan <peng.fan@nxp.com>
regmap_reinit_cache() tears down the existing cache and then updates the
map configuration. regcache_exit() frees reg_defaults_raw when cache_free
is set but does not clear cache_free or the pointer, and neither
regmap_set_name() nor regcache_init() resets map->cache_type on failure.
The old cache_ops pointer also remains set when reinitialising to
REGCACHE_NONE.
If the reinitialisation then fails, a later regmap_exit() calls
regcache_exit() again. It frees reg_defaults_raw a second time and runs
cache_ops->exit() on the already torn-down cache. A stale cache_ops can
also make regmap_volatile() treat registers as cacheable on a map that
has no cache.
Clear cache_free and reg_defaults_raw in regcache_hw_exit(), and clear
the old cache_ops right after regcache_exit() so a reinitialisation to
REGCACHE_NONE cannot leave stale ops behind. Mark the map as having no
cache when regmap_reinit_cache() fails after tearing down the old one.
Assign the new cache type only after regmap_set_name() has succeeded so
the failure paths cannot leave a type without cache ops.

Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/bug/linux-5693609c-7965-4f36-ae8f-30c610e10a33
Fixes: bf315173359b ("regmap: Allow drivers to reinitialise the register cache at runtime")
