This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: moxa: fix TX overrun memory leak to the 4.9-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-moxa-fix-tx-overrun-memory-leak.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Thu Dec 21 09:02:40 CET 2017 From: Jonas Jensen <jonas.jensen@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2017 12:12:38 +0200 Subject: net: moxa: fix TX overrun memory leak From: Jonas Jensen <jonas.jensen@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c2b341a620018d4eaeb0e85c16274ac4e5f153d4 ] moxart_mac_start_xmit() doesn't care where tx_tail is, tx_head can catch and pass tx_tail, which is bad because moxart_tx_finished() isn't guaranteed to catch up on freeing resources from tx_tail. Add a check in moxart_mac_start_xmit() stopping the queue at the end of the circular buffer. Also add a check in moxart_tx_finished() waking the queue if the buffer has TX_WAKE_THRESHOLD or more free descriptors. While we're at it, move spin_lock_irq() to happen before our descriptor pointer is assigned in moxart_mac_start_xmit().
