Subject: [PATCH 5.4.y] pmdomain: arm: scmi: Fix genpd leak on provider registration failure
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2025 12:16:05 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251121171605.2611489-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2025112055-muzzle-swimwear-7693@gregkh>
From: Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@arm.com>
[ Upstream commit 7458f72cc28f9eb0de811effcb5376d0ec19094a ]
If of_genpd_add_provider_onecell() fails during probe, the previously
created generic power domains are not removed, leading to a memory leak
and potential kernel crash later in genpd_debug_add().
Add proper error handling to unwind the initialized domains before
returning from probe to ensure all resources are correctly released on
failure.
Example crash trace observed without this fix:
