From: Yunjian Wang <wangyunjian@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 38318f23a7ef86a8b1862e5e8078c4de121960c3 ] Currently the call to i40e_client_del_instance frees the object pf->cinst, however pf->cinst->lan_info is being accessed after the free. Fix this by adding the missing return. Addresses-Coverity: ("Read from pointer after free") Fixes: 7b0b1a6d0ac9 ("i40e: Disable iWARP VSI PETCP_ENA flag on netdev down events") Signed-off-by: Yunjian Wang <wangyunjian@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_client.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_client.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_client.c index a2dba32383f6..32f3facbed1a 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_client.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_client.c @@ -375,6 +375,7 @@ void i40e_client_subtask(struct i40e_pf *pf) clear_bit(__I40E_CLIENT_INSTANCE_OPENED, &cdev->state); i40e_client_del_instance(pf); + return; } } } -- 2.30.2
