Hi Guenter,

Moving in the right direction, but some comments below.

On systems with OF_IMAP_OLDWORLD_MAC set in of_irq_workarounds, the
devicetree interrupt parsing code is different, causing unit tests of
devicetree interrupt nodes to fail. Due to a bug in unittest code, which
tries to dereference an uninitialized pointer, this results in a crash.

The problem was observed when running a qemu test for the g3beige machine
with devicetree unittests enabled.

Disable interrupt node tests on affected systems to avoid both false
unittest failures and the crash.

The changes in of_unittest_platform_populate() are kept at the minimum;
I wanted to avoid changing the intendation.
An alternative fix might be to move the interrupt tests to a separate
function.

The previous patch had fixes for of_unittest_parse_phandle_with_args() and
of_unittest_parse_phandle_with_args_map(). Do those two functions need to
have the test for OF_IMAP_OLDWORLD_MAC and return that this patch adds to
the other functions?


No. The reason for adding those locations was that they accessed args.np
after an error. As mentioned before, the primary idea of the original patch
was to address the problem of accessing args.np, not to address the
unnecessarily failing test. Sorry for the confusion.

This does not follow the normal use of goto. Just put the skipped over code
into an indented if block.

The code being skipped over already has some unittest() lines that are over
80 characters, and the indentation will make them worse. Please clean up those
unittest() lines up when you add the indentation.

Sure, NP.

Thanks,
Guenter
