x86/amd_node: Fix PCI device reference counting in amd_smn_init()grafted
The local "root" pointer is a temporary variable used during the device search. Therefore, refcount related to the search iterators should be cleaned up after the search is complete. Use the __free() cleanup macro to ensure the refcount is decremented when the temporary pointer goes out of scope. Additionally, increment the refcount when caching a root pointer. This ensures the in-use refcount is separate from the temporary search refcounting. Finally, drop the redundant "root = NULL" before the second search loop. The pci_get_class() iterator always decrements the refcount of its "from" argument, so the first loop can only fall through with "root" already NULL. Fixes: 0a4b61d9c2e4 ("x86/amd_node: Fix AMD root device caching") Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260806160159.230453-1-jason.andryuk%40amd.com Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org> Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Yazen Ghannam <yazen.ghannam@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Reviewed-by: Mario Limonciello (AMD) <superm1@kernel.org> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260903154325.74343-1-yazen.ghannam@amd.com

+This file describes how to run the tcp_*_kern.o tcp_bpf (or socket_ops)
+programs. These programs attach to a cgroupv2. The following commands create
+a cgroupv2 and attach a bash shell to the group.
+
+ mkdir -p /tmp/cgroupv2
+ mount -t cgroup2 none /tmp/cgroupv2
+ mkdir -p /tmp/cgroupv2/foo
+ bash
+ echo $$ >> /tmp/cgroupv2/foo/cgroup.procs
+
+Anything that runs under this shell belongs to the foo cgroupv2. To load
+(attach) one of the tcp_*_kern.o programs:
+
+ bpftool prog load tcp_basertt_kern.o /sys/fs/bpf/tcp_prog
+ bpftool cgroup attach /tmp/cgroupv2/foo sock_ops pinned /sys/fs/bpf/tcp_prog
+ bpftool prog tracelog
+
+"bpftool prog tracelog" will continue to run printing the BPF log buffer.
+The tcp_*_kern.o programs use special print functions to print logging
+information (if enabled by the ifdef).
+
+If using netperf/netserver to create traffic, you need to run them under the
+cgroupv2 to which the BPF programs are attached (i.e. under bash shell
+attached to the cgroupv2).
+
+To remove (unattach) a socket_ops BPF program from a cgroupv2:
+
+ bpftool cgroup detach /tmp/cgroupv2/foo sock_ops pinned /sys/fs/bpf/tcp_prog
