[ Upstream commit 91957b89da995607cb654b1f9a3c126ddbaee10f ]

wanxl_pci_init_one() stores the freshly allocated card in driver data
before the PLX BAR is mapped.  Several early probe failures then unwind
through wanxl_pci_remove_one(), including failure to allocate the coherent
status area or to restore the DMA mask.

wanxl_pci_remove_one() unconditionally calls wanxl_reset(), and
wanxl_reset() dereferences card-&gt;plx.  On those early failures card-&gt;plx
is still NULL, so the error path can dereference a NULL MMIO pointer.

Only issue the hardware reset once the BAR mapping exists.  The remaining
cleanup in wanxl_pci_remove_one() already checks whether later resources
were allocated.

This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by
manual source review.

<title>net: ixp4xx_hss: fix duplicate HDLC netdev allocation</title>

<id>urn:sha1:91850f582783098415a334f8bd0a84c87ff15a8c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit db818b0e8af7bac16860116a19c341a63d6677b4 upstream.

ixp4xx_hss_probe() allocates two HDLC netdevs. The first one is stored
in ndev, initialized, and registered with register_hdlc_device(). The
second one is stored in port-&gt;netdev and later used by the remove path
for unregister_hdlc_device() and free_netdev().

This means that the registered netdev is not the same object that is
unregistered and freed on remove. It also leaks the first allocation if
the second alloc_hdlcdev() call fails, and the first allocation is not
checked before ndev is used.

Older code allocated the HDLC netdev only once and stored the same object
in both the local variable and port-&gt;netdev. The buggy conversion split
this into two alloc_hdlcdev() calls. A later rename changed the local
variable name to ndev, but the underlying mismatch remained.

Fix this by allocating the HDLC netdev only once and assigning the same
object to port-&gt;netdev.

<title>hdlc_ppp: sync per-proto timers before freeing hdlc state</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a594debfd4e7ec39413647458907f689ef57fd2f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit c78a4e41ab5ead6193ad8a2dd92e8906bae659fa upstream.

Each PPP control protocol (LCP/IPCP/IPV6CP) embedded in struct ppp
registers a timer via timer_setup(). That struct ppp is the
hdlc-&gt;state allocation, which detach_hdlc_protocol() frees with kfree()
in both teardown paths: unregister_hdlc_device() and the re-attach inside
attach_hdlc_protocol().

The ppp proto never registered a .detach callback, so
detach_hdlc_protocol() performs no timer synchronization before the
kfree(). The only cancel, timer_delete(&amp;proto-&gt;timer) in ppp_cp_event(),
is partial (it does not wait for a running callback) and only runs on the
-&gt;CLOSED transition; ppp_stop()/ppp_close() do not sync either. A
ppp_timer callback already executing (blocked on ppp-&gt;lock) survives the
kfree and then dereferences proto-&gt;state / ppp-&gt;lock in freed memory,
leading to a use-after-free.

Fix this by adding a .detach helper that calls timer_shutdown_sync() on
every per-proto timer. detach_hdlc_protocol() invokes proto-&gt;detach(dev)
before kfree(hdlc-&gt;state), so timer_shutdown_sync()
now runs on both free paths.
timer_shutdown_sync() is used instead of timer_delete_sync() because the
keepalive path re-arms the timer through add_timer()/mod_timer() and
shutdown blocks any re-activation during teardown.

Initialize the per-protocol timers in ppp_ioctl() when the protocol is
attached, and remove the now-redundant timer_setup() from ppp_start(), so
that the timers are initialized exactly once at attach time and
ppp_timer_release() never operates on uninitialized timer_list
structures. attach_hdlc_protocol() uses kmalloc() (not kzalloc), so
struct ppp's protos[i].timer is uninitialized garbage until the first
timer_setup(); without this init-at-attach, attaching the PPP protocol
without ever bringing the device up would leave timer_shutdown_sync()
operating on uninitialized memory in .detach. Moving the init out of
ppp_start() (which only runs on NETDEV_UP) into the attach path makes the
initialization unconditional and avoids initializing the same timer_list
twice.

This bug was found by static analysis.

<content type='text'>
When the device is removed all allocated resources should be freed.
In uhdlc_memclean the netdev transmit queue was already stopped. But at
this point we may have pending skb in the transmit queue which must be
freed. Therefore iterate over the tx_skbuff pointers and free all
pending skb. The issue was discovered by sashiko.
Tested on a ls1043a board running HDLC in bus mode on kernel 6.12.
