Subject: [PATCH 0/3] of: reserved_mem: fix a few reserved memory issues
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2026 16:14:40 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260814081443.1061046-1-chenwandun1@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Wandun Chen <chenwandun@lixiang.com>
This series fixes a few issues in the reserved-memory handling:
1. A region whose early reservation failed was still counted and
initialized by the late scan, handing unprotected memory to a
device. (patch 1)
2. A statically placed region overlapping an existing reservation was
accepted, so the overlap could be used by two regions concurrently
and freed on init failure. (patch 2)
3. A dynamically allocated no-map region was never returned to the
buddy allocator when its driver init failed: only
memblock_clear_nomap() was called, leaving the entry in
memblock.reserved. (patch 3)
Sashiko reported the original issue in [1].
This is sent for review now; given the v7.2 release is closing, there
is no expectation to merge it this cycle.
