devlink: rate: Unset parent pointer in devl_rate_nodes_destroy

2025-12-01T10:43:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit f94c1a114ac209977bdf5ca841b98424295ab1f0 ] The function devl_rate_nodes_destroy is documented to "Unset parent for all rate objects". However, it was only calling the driver-specific `rate_leaf_parent_set` or `rate_node_parent_set` ops and decrementing the parent's refcount, without actually setting the `devlink_rate->parent` pointer to NULL. This leaves a dangling pointer in the `devlink_rate` struct, which cause refcount error in netdevsim[1] and mlx5[2]. In addition, this is inconsistent with the behavior of `devlink_nl_rate_parent_node_set`, where the parent pointer is correctly cleared. This patch fixes the issue by explicitly setting `devlink_rate->parent` to NULL after notifying the driver, thus fulfilling the function's documented behavior for all rate objects.

devlink: fix xa_alloc_cyclic() error handling

[ Upstream commit f3b97b7d4bf316c3991e5634c9f4847c2df35478 ] In case of returning 1 from xa_alloc_cyclic() (wrapping) ERR_PTR(1) will be returned, which will cause IS_ERR() to be false. Which can lead to dereference not allocated pointer (rel). Fix it by checking if err is lower than zero. This wasn't found in real usecase, only noticed. Credit to Pierre.

devlink: Constify the 'table_ops' parameter of devl_dpipe_table_register()

2024-06-05T09:24:57+00:00

"struct devlink_dpipe_table_ops" only contains some function pointers. Update "struct devlink_dpipe_table" and the 'table_ops' parameter of devl_dpipe_table_register() so that structures in drivers can be constified. Constifying these structures will move some data to a read-only section, so increase overall security.

netlink: add nlmsg_consume() and use it in devlink compat

2024-04-06T17:20:14+00:00

devlink_compat_running_version() sticks out when running netdevsim tests and watching dropped skbs. Add nlmsg_consume() for cases were we want to free a netlink skb but it is expected, rather than a drop. af_netlink code uses consume_skb() directly, which is fine, but some may prefer the symmetry of nlmsg_new() / nlmsg_consume().

netlink: introduce type-checking attribute iteration

2024-03-29T22:06:02+00:00

Also convert many instances using this spatch: @@ iterator nla_for_each_attr; iterator name nla_for_each_attr_type; identifier nla; expression head, len, rem; expression ATTR; type T; identifier x; @@ -nla_for_each_attr(nla, head, len, rem) +nla_for_each_attr_type(nla, ATTR, head, len, rem) { <...

devlink: Fix devlink parallel commands processing

2024-03-13T08:31:40+00:00

Commit 870c7ad4a52b ("devlink: protect devlink->dev by the instance lock") added devlink instance locking inside a loop that iterates over all the registered devlink instances on the machine in the pre-doit phase. This can lead to serialization of devlink commands over different devlink instances. For example: While the first devlink instance is executing firmware flash, all commands to other devlink instances on the machine are forced to wait until the first devlink finishes. Therefore, in the pre-doit phase, take the devlink instance lock only for the devlink instance the command is targeting. Devlink layer is taking a reference on the devlink instance, ensuring the devlink->dev pointer is valid. This reference taking was introduced by commit a380687200e0 ("devlink: take device reference for devlink object"). Without this commit, it would not be safe to access devlink->dev lockless.
