[PATCH] net: fman: fix clock and device node leak in probe error paths
From: ZhaoJinming
Date: Thu Jun 18 2026 - 03:56:25 EST
In read_dts_node(), fm_node is acquired via of_node_get() and clk is
acquired via of_clk_get(). After a successful of_clk_get() call, the
error paths for clk_get_rate failure and of_property_read_u32_array
failure correctly goto fman_node_put (releasing fm_node) but miss
clk_put(clk).
Worse, all error paths from the MURAM node lookup onward goto
fman_free directly, skipping both fman_node_put and clk_put, leaking
both the fm_node and clk references.
of_clk_get() eventually calls __of_clk_get() -> clk_hw_create_clk() ->
alloc_clk() -> kzalloc_obj() to allocate the clk struct, so clk_put()
must be called to release this memory. Without it, the allocated clk
struct is leaked on every probe failure after of_clk_get() succeeds.
Introduce a clk_put label between the success return and fman_node_put
in the unwind chain, and redirect all error paths after of_clk_get()
to this new label. Since no goto target remains for fman_free, fold
it into fman_node_put and remove the now-unused label.
