Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] device property: fix infinite loop in fwnode_for_each_child_node()
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 22:31:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260611203537.1786399-2-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260611203537.1786399-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>

From: Xu Yang <xu.yang_2@nxp.com>

When iterate over children of a fwnode that has a secondary fwnode,
fwnode_get_next_child_node() can enter an infinite loop if the secondary
fwnode has more than one child.

                       Parent        Child
      (Primary fwnode)   FWa:   {FWa1, FWa2, FWa3}
    (Secondary fwnode)   FWb:   {FWb1, FWb2}

In this case:

 ┌─> fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWa1)
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWa1) returns FWa2
 │
 │   ...
 │
 │   fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWa3)
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWa3) returns NULL
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWb, get_next_child_node, FWa3) returns FWb1
 │
 │   fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWb1)
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWb1) returns FWa1
 └────┘

This cause fwnode_for_each_child_node() to loop indefinitely, reapeatedly
output {FWa1, FWa2, FWa3, FWb1, FWa1, ...}.

The root cause is that when the current child (FWb1) belongs to the
secondary fwnode, calling get_next_child_node() on the parimary fwnode
incorrectly returns the first child (FWa1) again instead of NULL.

Fix this by dynamically checking the parent fwnode of the current child
before calling get_next_child_node(). This approach follows the pattern
established in commit b5b41ab6b0c1 ("device property: Check
fwnode->secondary in fwnode_graph_get_next_endpoint()").

Fixes: 2692c614f8f0 ("device property: Allow secondary lookup in fwnode_get_next_child_node()")
