This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iavf: use internal state to free traffic IRQs to the 6.1-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: iavf-use-internal-state-to-free-traffic-irqs.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 7af6ff049c18a0c4e3e4a80b523c331617b48a6f Author: Ahmed Zaki <ahmed.zaki@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri May 19 15:46:02 2023 -0600 iavf: use internal state to free traffic IRQs [ Upstream commit a77ed5c5b768e9649be240a2d864e5cd9c6a2015 ] If the system tries to close the netdev while iavf_reset_task() is running, __LINK_STATE_START will be cleared and netif_running() will return false in iavf_reinit_interrupt_scheme(). This will result in iavf_free_traffic_irqs() not being called and a leak as follows: [7632.489326] remove_proc_entry: removing non-empty directory 'irq/999', leaking at least 'iavf-enp24s0f0v0-TxRx-0' [7632.490214] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 10 at fs/proc/generic.c:718 remove_proc_entry+0x19b/0x1b0 is shown when pci_disable_msix() is later called. Fix by using the internal adapter state. The traffic IRQs will always exist if state == __IAVF_RUNNING.
