From: Cristian Dumitrescu <cristian.dumitrescu@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7128c834d30e6b2cf649f14d8fc274941786d0e1 ] Currently, the function i40e_construct_skb_zc only frees the input xdp buffer when the output skb is successfully built. On error, the function i40e_clean_rx_irq_zc does not commit anything for the current packet descriptor and simply exits the packet descriptor processing loop, with the plan to restart the processing of this descriptor on the next invocation. Therefore, on error the ring next-to-clean pointer should not advance, the xdp i.e. *bi buffer should not be freed and the current buffer info should not be invalidated by setting *bi to NULL. Therefore, the *bi should only be set to NULL when the function i40e_construct_skb_zc is successful, otherwise a NULL *bi will be dereferenced when the work for the current descriptor is eventually restarted.
