Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] drivers/of: validate status properties in reconfig state changes
Date: Thu,  7 May 2026 16:18:11 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507081812.91838-2-pengpeng@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260507081812.91838-1-pengpeng@iscas.ac.cn>

Live-tree reconfiguration properties also carry raw values plus explicit
lengths. `of_reconfig_get_state_change()` currently treats `status`
property values as NUL-terminated strings and feeds them straight into
`strcmp()`.

Factor the `"okay"` / `"ok"` check out into a helper that first verifies
that the property contains a bounded C string within `prop->length`.
Malformed `status` updates should be treated as not enabling the node.

Changes since v1:
