[PATCH] wifi: mac80211: sdata can be NULL during AMPDU start

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



ieee80211_tx_ba_session_handle_start() may get NULL for sdata when a
deauthentication is ongoing.

Here a trace triggering the race with the hostapd test
multi_ap_fronthaul_on_ap:

(gdb) list *drv_ampdu_action+0x46
0x8b16 is in drv_ampdu_action (net/mac80211/driver-ops.c:396).
391             int ret = -EOPNOTSUPP;
392
393             might_sleep();
394
395             sdata = get_bss_sdata(sdata);
396             if (!check_sdata_in_driver(sdata))
397                     return -EIO;
398
399             trace_drv_ampdu_action(local, sdata, params);

The fix is not perfect, we still dereference sdata and use it without
any strong guarantee that it's still valid. But I don't see another
solution here without fundamental changes. With the patch I'm unable to
trigger the issue any longer. Other attempts to fix it failed in that
regard...
