bnxt_en: Fix NULL pointer dereference

2026-07-04T11:38:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit d930276f2cddd0b7294cac7a8fe7b877f6d9e08d ] PCIe errors detected by a Root Port or Downstream Port cause error recovery services to run on all subordinate devices regardless of administrative state. The .error_detected() callback, bnxt_io_error_detected(), disables and synchronizes IRQs via bnxt_disable_int_sync(), which calls bnxt_cp_num_to_irq_num() to map completion rings to IRQs using bp->bnapi. Since bp->bnapi is allocated on NIC open and freed on NIC close, PCIe error recovery on a closed NIC can dereference a NULL pointer. Check if bp->bnapi is NULL before disabling and synchronizing IRQs. Fixes: e5811b8c09df ("bnxt_en: Add IRQ remapping logic.")

net: cpsw_new: Fix potential unregister of netdev that has not been registered yet

2026-07-04T11:38:39+00:00

commit 9d724b34fbe13b71865ad0906a4be97571f19cf5 upstream. If an error occurs during register_netdev() for the first MAC in cpsw_register_ports(), even though cpsw->slaves[0].ndev is set to NULL, cpsw->slaves[1].ndev would remain unchanged. This could later cause cpsw_unregister_ports() to attempt unregistering the second MAC. To address this, add a check for ndev->reg_state before calling unregister_netdev(). With this change, setting cpsw->slaves[i].ndev to NULL becomes unnecessary and can be removed accordingly.

net: qualcomm: rmnet: fix endpoint use-after-free in rmnet_dellink()

2026-07-04T11:38:37+00:00

commit d00c953a8f69921f484b629801766da68f27f658 upstream. rmnet_dellink() removes the endpoint from the hash table with hlist_del_init_rcu() and then immediately frees it with kfree(). However, RCU readers on the receive path (rmnet_rx_handler -> __rmnet_map_ingress_handler) may still hold a reference to the endpoint and dereference ep->egress_dev after the memory has been freed. The endpoint is a kmalloc-32 object, and the stale read at offset 8 corresponds to the egress_dev pointer.

octeontx2-af: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy

2026-06-19T11:21:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 473f8f2d1bfe1103f20140fdc80cad406b4d68c0 ] `strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We can see that linfo->lmac_type is expected to be NUL-terminated based on the `... - 1`'s present in the current code. Presumably making room for a NUL-byte at the end of the buffer. Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding. Let's also prefer the more idiomatic strscpy usage of (dest, src, sizeof(dest)) rather than (dest, src, SOME_LEN).

octeontx2-pf: avoid double free of pool->stack on AQ init failure

2026-06-19T11:21:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9b244c242bec48b37e82b89787afd6a4c43457e1 ] otx2_pool_aq_init() frees pool->stack when mailbox sync or retry allocation fails, but leaves the pointer unchanged. Later, otx2_sq_aura_pool_init() unwinds the partial setup through otx2_aura_pool_free(), which frees pool->stack again. The CN20K-specific cn20k_pool_aq_init() implementation has the same bug in its corresponding error path. Set pool->stack to NULL immediately after the local free so the shared cleanup path does not free the same stack again while cleaning up partially initialized pool state. The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1-rc3. Runtime validation was not performed because reproducing this path requires OcteonTX2/CN20K hardware.

ice: fix VF queue configuration with low MTU values

2026-06-19T11:21:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3ba4dd024d26372733d1c02e13e076c6016e3320 ] The ice driver's VF queue configuration validation rejects databuffer_size values below 1024 bytes, which prevents VFs from using MTU values below 871 bytes. The iavf driver calculates databuffer_size based on the MTU using: databuffer_size = ALIGN(MTU + LIBETH_RX_LL_LEN, 128) where LIBETH_RX_LL_LEN = 26 (ETH_HLEN + 2*VLAN_HLEN + ETH_FCS_LEN). For MTU values below 871: MTU 870: 870 + 26 = 896, aligned to 128 = 896 (< 1024, rejected) MTU 871: 871 + 26 = 897, aligned to 128 = 1024 (>= 1024, accepted) The 1024-byte minimum seems unnecessarily restrictive, because the hardware supports databuffer_size as low as 128 bytes (the alignment boundary), which should allow MTU values down to the standard minimum of 68 bytes. I haven't found the reason why the limit was configured in the commit 9c7dd7566d18 ("ice: add validation in OP_CONFIG_VSI_QUEUES VF message"), so with no more information and since it is working, change the minimum databuffer_size validation from 1024 to 128 bytes to allow standard low MTU values while still preventing invalid configurations.

qed: fix double free in qed_cxt_tables_alloc()

2026-06-19T11:21:44+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2bccfb8476ca5f3548afbd623dc7a6980d4e77de ] If one of the later PF or VF CID bitmap allocations fails, qed_cid_map_alloc() jumps to cid_map_fail and frees the previously allocated CID bitmaps before returning an error. qed_cxt_tables_alloc() then calls qed_cxt_mngr_free(), which invokes qed_cid_map_free() again. Fix this by setting each CID bitmap pointer to NULL after bitmap_free() to avoid double free. The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1-rc3.
