Subject: [PATCH v2] PCI: imx6: Avoid dereferencing a NULL clock name
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 12:35:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aqfqE4OLhnN4a1lW@b65e9c1eb12f> (raw)
of_clk_bulk_get() leaves clk_bulk_data::id as NULL for every clock that
has no matching entry in "clock-names", which is legal: a node may list
more "clocks" phandles than it names. Both scans of the bulk array
dereference that id unconditionally, so such a node oopses during probe.
The loop in imx_pcie_probe() has been wrong since it was written. The
loop in imx_setup_phy_mpll() was not: it read a fixed clks[] whose ids
came from the driver's own clk_names[] and were never NULL, and only
became wrong when the driver moved to the bulk array.
Check clk_bulk_data::id before dereferencing it in both.
Fixes: f6a1fdfc78e2 ("PCI: imx6: Use devm_clk_bulk_get_all() to fetch clocks")
Fixes: d8574ce57d76 ("PCI: imx6: Add external reference clock input mode support")

Changes in v2:
- Also guard the identical unchecked dereference in imx_setup_phy_mpll(),
reported by Sashiko and requested by Manivannan Sadhasivam.
- Add the Fixes: tag for that site.
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/am8iBwJSEhYhWTqk@6cfee64030a6/
