This leaks references to the looked up nodes.

Both these nodes are defined in PAPR (our hypervisor spec), and both of
them must have a device_type, either "ibm,platform-facilities" or
"vdevice".

Looking at the commit that added the code I don't see any particular
reason it used the comparison against full_name, rather than using the
device_type.

So I'm inclined to do this instead:

diff --git a/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c b/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c
index 8a47f168476b..f26f906e6021 100644

@@ -1357,9 +1357,9 @@ struct vio_dev *vio_register_device_node(struct device_node *of_node)
 	 */
 	parent_node = of_get_parent(of_node);
 	if (parent_node) {
-		if (!strcmp(parent_node->full_name, "/ibm,platform-facilities"))
+		if (!strcmp(parent_node->type, "ibm,platform-facilities"))
 			family = PFO;
-		else if (!strcmp(parent_node->full_name, "/vdevice"))
+		else if (!strcmp(parent_node->type, "vdevice"))
 			family = VDEVICE;
 		else {
 			pr_warn("%s: parent(%s) of %s not recognized.\n",


I've checked both Qemu and kvmtool add the device_type, and I'm fairly
confident that PowerVM does too. Anyway I'll test it on all the machines
I can find.

cheers
