Hi all, This v2 series addresses the feedback from the previous irq_ready flag approach (v1) and the separate UAF fix patch (v3). It replaces both with a single root-cause fix: moving IRQ registration after driver initialization is complete. Issues fixed in this series: 1. Pre-init NULL dereference (crash on shared IRQ): is_init_done(NULL) returns true, so the guard in fman_irq()/fman_err_irq() is bypassed when fman->cfg is NULL before fman_config() allocates it. Moving devm_request_irq() to after fman_init() eliminates this window. 2. Use-after-free on probe failure (UAF): kfree(fman) was called in read_dts_node() error paths while devm IRQ handlers were still registered. Moving IRQ registration later eliminates this window. 3. Interrupt storm risk on shared IRQ line: deferred enable() to after IRQ registration, so the hardware is never active without a handler. 4. Memory leaks on probe failure: added fman_free_resources() and fman_muram_finish() to properly release all sub-resources on error paths after fman_config() succeeds. 5. Double-free in free_init_resources(): cleared fifo_offset and cam_offset after each call in fman_init() error paths, and added IS_ERR_VALUE() guards to prevent -ENOMEM from being treated as a valid offset. Pre-existing issues NOT addressed in this series (suggested as follow-up patches): - Missing .remove callback: the driver has no remove/unbind path, causing all kzalloc'd resources to leak on device removal. This is a larger issue affecting the entire driver lifecycle. - Child device probe ordering: of_platform_populate() is called before dev_set_drvdata(), so MAC drivers probing synchronously will find no parent driver data. This is a pre-existing design issue in the probe sequence. - Hardware not disabled on cleanup: if enable() or devm_request_irq() fails after fman_init() completes, the hardware remains active while all software structures are freed. The driver lacks a disable/stop function. - fman_muram_alloc() failure stores -ENOMEM in fifo_offset: this is a pre-existing issue that is now mitigated by the IS_ERR_VALUE() guard in free_init_resources(), but the root cause (error code stored in an unsigned long field) remains. v2 changes: - Move devm_request_irq() to fman_probe() after init (replaces irq_ready + READ_ONCE approach from v1) - Defer enable() to after IRQ registration to prevent interrupt storm - Add proper error cleanup with fman_free_resources() - Add fman_muram_finish() for complete MURAM teardown - Clear fifo_offset/cam_offset after free_init_resources() to prevent double-free - Add IS_ERR_VALUE() guards in free_init_resources() - Supersede the separate UAF fix patch (v3) v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260629084529.3709393-1-zhaojinming@uniontech.com/ (local) Signed-off-by: ZhaoJinming <redacted>
