Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] interconnect: debugfs: replace writable string helper
Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 16:48:52 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806084854.1019789-2-chenyichong@uniontech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260806084854.1019789-1-chenyichong@uniontech.com>
debugfs_create_str() is being made read-only because its generic write path
is hard to make safe without adding more locking to the helper.
Convert the interconnect debugfs client src_node and dst_node entries to
local file operations before removing writable string support from
debugfs_create_str(). Protect the string replacement and path lookup with
the existing debugfs_lock.
