Hmm. Not that I know of.
Those don't look related to OF flattening/unflattening. That's just
sysfs setup based on the unflattened device tree.
The allocations are happening in safe_name() AFAICS.
int __of_add_property_sysfs(struct device_node *np, struct property *pp)
{
...
pp->attr.attr.name = safe_name(&np->kobj, pp->name);
And the free is in __of_sysfs_remove_bin_file():
void __of_sysfs_remove_bin_file(struct device_node *np, struct property *prop)
{
if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SYSFS))
return;
sysfs_remove_bin_file(&np->kobj, &prop->attr);
kfree(prop->attr.attr.name);
There is this check which could be failing leading to us not calling the
free at all:
void __of_remove_property_sysfs(struct device_node *np, struct property *prop)
{
/* at early boot, bail here and defer setup to of_init() */
if (of_kset && of_node_is_attached(np))
__of_sysfs_remove_bin_file(np, prop);
}
So maybe stick a printk() in there to see if you're hitting that
condition, eg something like:
if (of_kset && of_node_is_attached(np))
__of_sysfs_remove_bin_file(np, prop);
else
printk("%s: leaking prop %s on node %pOF\n", __func__,
prop->attr.attr.name, np);
