This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/mlx5: Always stop health timer during driver removal to the 6.6-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: net-mlx5-always-stop-health-timer-during-driver-remo.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 19a8d0c667bfb8613b3ba9953f573b5329ef8832 Author: Shay Drory <shayd@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jun 4 00:04:43 2024 +0300 net/mlx5: Always stop health timer during driver removal [ Upstream commit c8b3f38d2dae0397944814d691a419c451f9906f ] Currently, if teardown_hca fails to execute during driver removal, mlx5 does not stop the health timer. Afterwards, mlx5 continue with driver teardown. This may lead to a UAF bug, which results in page fault Oops[1], since the health timer invokes after resources were freed. Hence, stop the health monitor even if teardown_hca fails.
