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

 



3.16.81-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit cad46039e4c99812db067c8ac22a864960e7acc4 upstream.

ql_alloc_large_buffers() has the usual RX buffer allocation
loop where it allocates skbs and maps them for DMA.  It also
treats failure as a fatal error.

There are (at least) three bugs in the error paths:

1. ql_free_large_buffers() assumes that the lrg_buf[] entry for the
first buffer that couldn't be allocated will have .skb == NULL.
But the qla_buf[] array is not zero-initialised.

2. ql_free_large_buffers() DMA-unmaps all skbs in lrg_buf[].  This is
incorrect for the last allocated skb, if DMA mapping failed.

3. Commit 1acb8f2a7a9f ("net: qlogic: Fix memory leak in
ql_alloc_large_buffers") added a direct call to dev_kfree_skb_any()
after the skb is recorded in lrg_buf[], so ql_free_large_buffers()
will double-free it.

The bugs are somewhat inter-twined, so fix them all at once:

* Clear each entry in qla_buf[] before attempting to allocate
  an skb for it.  This goes half-way to fixing bug 1.
* Set the .skb field only after the skb is DMA-mapped.  This
  fixes the rest.

Fixes: 1357bfcf7106 ("qla3xxx: Dynamically size the rx buffer queue ...")
Fixes: 0f8ab89e825f ("qla3xxx: Check return code from pci_map_single() ...")
Fixes: 1acb8f2a7a9f ("net: qlogic: Fix memory leak in ql_alloc_large_buffers")
