From 27600805e62f800bacf990354632eae4e487d34c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yazen Ghannam Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2026 10:43:25 -0500 Subject: x86/amd_node: Fix PCI device reference counting in amd_smn_init() 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.

Commands are sent to the +kernel module by writing to the device, and any data received from the serio +driver is read as-is from the /dev/userio device. All of the structures and +macros you need to interact with the device are defined in and +. + +Command Structure +================= + +The struct used for sending commands to /dev/userio is as follows:: + + struct userio_cmd { + __u8 type; + __u8 data; + }; + +``type`` describes the type of command that is being sent. This can be any one +of the USERIO_CMD macros defined in . ``data`` is the argument +that goes along with the command. In the event that the command doesn't have an +argument, this field can be left untouched and will be ignored by the kernel. +Each command should be sent by writing the struct directly to the character +device. In the event that the command you send is invalid, an error will be +returned by the character device and a more descriptive error will be printed +to the kernel log. Only one command can be sent at a time, any additional data +written to the character device after the initial command will be ignored. + +To close the virtual serio port, just close /dev/userio. + +Commands +======== + +USERIO_CMD_REGISTER +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Registers the port with the serio driver and begins transmitting data back and +forth. Registration can only be performed once a port type is set with +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_TYPE. Has no argument. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_TYPE +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the type of port we're emulating, where ``data`` is the port type being +set. Can be any of the serio type macros from . For example: +SERIO_8042 would set the port type to be a normal PS/2 port. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_PROTO +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the protocol of port we're emulating, where ``data`` is the protocol being +set. Can be any of the serio proto macros from . For example: +SERIO_IFORCE would set the port type to be an I-Force serial joystick. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_ID +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the ``id`` value on the identification of port we're emulating, where +``data`` is the value being set. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_EXTRA +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the ``extra`` value on the identification of port we're emulating, where +``data`` is the value being set. + +USERIO_CMD_SEND_INTERRUPT +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sends an interrupt through the virtual serio port to the serio driver, where +``data`` is the interrupt data being sent. + +Userspace tools +=============== + +The userio userspace tools are able to record PS/2 devices using some of the +debugging information from i8042, and play back the devices on /dev/userio.
