The driver allocates domain generic chips using
irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips() during probe. However, on driver
remove, the generic chips are not automatically freed when the IRQ
domain is removed because the domain flags do not include
IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC.
This causes both the domain generic chips structure and the associated
generic chips to be leaked. Additionally, the generic chips remain on
the global gc_list and may later be visited by generic IRQ chip suspend,
resume, or shutdown callbacks after the driver has been removed,
potentially resulting in a use-after-free and kernel crash.
Fix the resource leak by explicitly calling
irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() before removing the IRQ domain in
both irqc_remove() and the probe error path.

While I had expected a new label, this is indeed not needed, as
irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() is a no-op if irq_domain.gc
is NULL, which is the case if irq_domain_alloc_generic_chips() fails.

Thanks for your careful review and correction.
Changes in v2:
- Corrected Fixes commit hash to 99c221df33fbfa1b, the commit that introduced nested generic chip allocation.
- Code remains unchanged; calling irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() unconditionally in the error path is safe per your feedback.

Hi Geert,
Thanks a lot for your review and Reviewed-by tag.
I sent v2 patch one month ago, which corrected the wrong Fixes commit id as you suggested.
The patch adds missing irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() cleanup path in probe error handling, no functional breakage.
Could you help merge it when you have time?
v2 patch archive link:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260612082537.1212357-1-fffsqian@163.com/

How about pinging the maintainer or resending the patch with [RESEND] in
the subject line?
That patch never made it into my inbox for whatever reasons, so it's not
a surprise that it is not merged.

That can be simplified by doing:

The driver allocates domain generic chips using
irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips() during probe. However, on driver
remove, the generic chips are not automatically freed when the interrupt
domain is removed because the domain flags do not include
IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC.
This causes both the domain generic chips structure and the associated
generic chips to be leaked. Additionally, the generic chips remain on
the global gc_list and may later be visited by generic interrupt chip
suspend, resume, or shutdown callbacks after the driver has been removed,
potentially resulting in a use-after-free and kernel crash.
Fix the resource leak by setting IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC on the
interrupt domain; this lets the interrupt domain core automatically
release all generic chips when irq_domain_remove() is called, removing
the need for manual cleanup calls in error paths and remove callback.

LGTM, but you may want to do this right after creating p->irq_domain,

The driver allocates domain generic chips using
irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips() during probe. However, on driver
remove, the generic chips are not automatically freed when the interrupt
domain is removed because the domain flags do not include
IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC.
This causes both the domain generic chips structure and the associated
generic chips to be leaked. Additionally, the generic chips remain on
the global gc_list and may later be visited by generic interrupt chip
suspend, resume, or shutdown callbacks after the driver has been removed,
potentially resulting in a use-after-free and kernel crash.
Fix the resource leak by setting IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC on the
interrupt domain; this lets the interrupt domain core automatically
release all generic chips when irq_domain_remove() is called, removing
the need for manual cleanup calls in error paths and remove callback.

Changes from v1 to v2:
- Corrected wrong Fixes commit ID per Geert's review
Changes from v2 to v3:
- Reword commit prose to use full "interrupt" instead of shorthand "IRQ"
- Add manual irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() cleanup in probe error path and remove callback to fix leak
Changes from v3 to v4:
- Adopt tglx's suggestion: set IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC instead of manual
irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() cleanup calls
Changes from v4 to v5:
1. Move IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC assignment right after irq_domain creation
to align with similar drivers like pdc_intc_probe()
2. Drop redundant comment for flag assignment
3. Remove old Reviewed-by tag since the implementation logic was fully changed

Hi Geert,
Thanks for your review. I've updated the patch to v5 as your suggestions:
1. Added full version changelog under split line.
2. Moved IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC assignment right after irq_domain creation.
3. Removed redundant comment and dropped old Reviewed-by tag as implementation fully changed.
v5 patch attached.
