This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled bnx2x: fix potential memory leak in bnx2x_tpa_stop() to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: bnx2x-fix-potential-memory-leak-in-bnx2x_tpa_stop.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 05d00512b14842fc30407776c0e36085e0e5a5f6 Author: Jianglei Nie <niejianglei2021@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri Sep 30 14:28:43 2022 +0800 bnx2x: fix potential memory leak in bnx2x_tpa_stop() [ Upstream commit b43f9acbb8942b05252be83ac25a81cec70cc192 ] bnx2x_tpa_stop() allocates a memory chunk from new_data with bnx2x_frag_alloc(). The new_data should be freed when gets some error. But when "pad + len > fp->rx_buf_size" is true, bnx2x_tpa_stop() returns without releasing the new_data, which will lead to a memory leak. We should free the new_data with bnx2x_frag_free() when "pad + len > fp->rx_buf_size" is true.
