[PATCH 5.4 74/90] net: ll_temac: Make sure to free skb when it is completely used

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

 



From: Esben Haabendal <esben@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6aa32217a9a446275440ee8724b1ecaf1838df47 upstream.

With the skb pointer piggy-backed on the TX BD, we have a simple and
efficient way to free the skb buffer when the frame has been transmitted.
But in order to avoid freeing the skb while there are still fragments from
the skb in use, we need to piggy-back on the TX BD of the skb, not the
first.

Without this, we are doing use-after-free on the DMA side, when the first
BD of a multi TX BD packet is seen as completed in xmit_done, and the
remaining BDs are still being processed.
