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.

"FDSTORE=1\nFDNAME=foo")``. + +Services may also create their own LUO sessions (via ``/dev/liveupdate``) and +push the resulting session fds into their file descriptor store like any other +fd. systemd detects such session fds and handles them accordingly, and +hands the re-retrieved session fd back to the service after kexec, using the +existing file descriptor store service interface. + +For details, see: + +- `File Descriptor Store `_ +- `systemd.service(5) FileDescriptorStorePreserve= + `_ +- `sd_pid_notify_with_fds(3) + `_ + +See Also +======== + +- :doc:`Live Update Orchestrator ` -- cgit v1.3.1
