45 hourswifi: mt76: mt7925: ensure tx headroom in usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skbDevin Wittmayer1-0/+4
commit ef3e34874d2332d0f63e72c2c35ce5c93568c125 upstream. mt7925_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb() pushes a TX descriptor and a USB header onto every skb and assumes the headroom for them is already there. That holds for locally generated traffic, where mac80211 reserves hw->extra_tx_headroom, but forwarded frames are sent through ieee80211_8023_xmit(), which does not reserve it. Bridge a wired interface to an mt7925u AP and the first forwarded frame that arrives short panics the kernel: skbuff: skb_under_panic: len:415 put:4 tail:0x19b end:0x640 dev:wlan1 kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:212!

Reproduced on a Raspberry Pi 5 bridging onboard ethernet to a Netgear A9000; originally reported on an MT7986 router running OpenWrt. Nick Morrow's testing on a Pi 4 (bcmgenet), which leaves more headroom, helped narrow the trigger to the ingress path. The same bug was fixed on mt7921 by commit 98c4d0abf5c4 ("mt76: mt7921: don't assume adequate headroom for SDIO headers"), but mt7925 was copied from mt7921 without the fix. Add the same guard here.

45 hoursvxlan: keep the last remote linked during FDB flushKyle Zeng1-4/+5
commit d5d4a7b538b52db63927773a8905fcd9f78a42e2 upstream. A non-nexthop FDB entry is expected to have at least one remote while it remains reachable through the FDB hash table. A filtered bulk flush violates this invariant when every remote matches: It unlinks the last remote in vxlan_fdb_dst_destroy() and only afterwards tells vxlan_flush() to destroy the parent FDB entry. An RCU reader can find the parent during this interval. first_remote_rcu() then applies list_entry_rcu() to the empty list head, producing an invalid remote pointer that the receive learning path can read from and write to. When a matching remote is the sole remaining remote, leave it linked and ask the caller to destroy the entire FDB entry. vxlan_fdb_destroy() keeps the remote attached while sending the deletion notification and removing the parent from the lookup structures.

45 hoursgtp: serialize PDP context updatesQing Ming1-4/+17
commit 498386b6d402737db1e2eeed4c385acbf0ef9e34 upstream. PDP contexts can be deleted through GTP_CMD_DELPDP or while the GTP network device is being unregistered. The latter is serialized by RTNL, but the generic-netlink delete path only holds RCU. Running both paths concurrently can therefore make both paths delete the same PDP context. The issue was found through static analysis and reproduced on a KASAN-enabled kernel by a simple two-thread program racing GTP_CMD_DELPDP against RTM_DELLINK: Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xdead000000000120-0xdead000000000127] RIP: gtp_genl_del_pdp+0x1c1/0x420 [gtp] RBP: dead000000000122 The second deletion dereferenced the poisoned hlist pprev pointer. Serialize gtp_pdp_add(), gtp_genl_del_pdp(), and gtp_dellink() with a shared mutex. Keep the mutex held until the final use of a PDP context in the NEWPDP path, and keep the RCU read-side section around the complete PDP context use in the DELPDP path.

8 daysnet/ionic: avoid OOB TX partner lookup for hwstamp RXQAnand Khoje2-3/+21
commit d92255b405fb6f5acca408239ccd742e0a42c9cb upstream. The dedicated hardware timestamp RX queue is allocated with q->index equal to lif->ionic->nrxqs_per_lif. The normal txqcqs array only contains the regular queue pairs, so using that index to set rxq->partner can read one entry past txqcqs[] and then write through the derived pointer. Only link RX/TX partners for normal queue-pair indexes. Leave the hwstamp RX queue unpaired, and make the XDP_TX path abort cleanly if an RX queue has no TX partner.

2026-08-16wifi: mt76: mt7921: refactor regd update to fix recursive mutex deadlockCharlie-cy Wu3-12/+22
Split mt7921_mcu_regd_update() into two functions to prevent recursive mutex acquisition. Introduce __mt7921_mcu_regd_update() as the internal implementation that assumes the mutex is already held by the caller, while mt7921_mcu_regd_update() remains as the external interface that handles mutex acquisition and release. This fixes a deadlock issue when mt7921_regd_set_6ghz_power_type() is called with the device mutex already held. Without this change, calling mt7921_mcu_regd_update() would attempt to acquire the same mutex again, causing a recursive lock deadlock. The __mt7921_mcu_regd_update() function can be safely called when the caller has already acquired the device mutex, avoiding the deadlock while maintaining proper synchronization for regulatory domain updates.

2026-08-13Revert "wifi: mt76: Disable napi when removing device"Mikhail Gavrilov1-4/+1
This reverts commit 13b7e6a96a005c656d38f3da51581deaf9866375. That commit made mt76_dma_cleanup() disable every RX NAPI instance before deleting it, to silence WARNs in __netif_napi_del_locked() and page_pool_disable_direct_recycling() seen when unloading mt7915e with an MT7916. On mt7921e and mt7925e the same instances are already disabled earlier, in mt7921e_unregister_device() and mt7925e_unregister_device(), which only afterwards call mt792x_dma_cleanup() -> mt76_dma_cleanup(). Each instance is therefore disabled twice, and napi_disable() is not idempotent: on return it leaves NAPIF_STATE_SCHED and NAPIF_STATE_NPSVC set, so the second call spins in usleep_range() forever, waiting for bits that nobody will clear. mt7921_pci_shutdown() and mt7925_pci_shutdown() reuse the remove path, so this is hit on every reboot, poweroff and module unload. It is silent: the stuck task keeps sleeping and rescheduling, so neither the hung task detector nor the lockup detectors fire, and the last line on the console is "systemd-shutdown[1]: Rebooting." task:modprobe state:D stack:25720 pid:7954 tgid:7954 Call Trace: <TASK> __schedule+0x11b8/0x26d0 schedule+0xe7/0x2f0 schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock+0x218/0x330 usleep_range_state+0x133/0x1b0 napi_disable_locked+0x37d/0x5f0 napi_disable+0x43/0x80 mt76_dma_cleanup+0x2b4/0x860 [mt76] mt7921_pci_remove+0x17f/0x350 [mt7921e] pci_device_remove+0xb6/0x1e0 device_release_driver_internal+0x38d/0x540 driver_detach+0xd0/0x1b0 bus_remove_driver+0x127/0x2d0 pci_unregister_driver+0x2a/0x280 __do_sys_delete_module+0x36a/0x5b0 do_syscall_64+0x11c/0x6d0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e </TASK> Dropping the two driver-side loops instead was tried and rejected: with them gone, the RX poll can reach mt76_token_release() via PKT_TYPE_TXRX_NOTIFY and mt7921_mac_tx_free() while mt76_connac2_tx_token_put() is running idr_destroy(&dev->token) outside token_lock, which is a use-after-free rather than a hang [1]. Revert for now, so that reboot, poweroff and module unload work again. The WARNs on mt7915e are a less severe problem than an unbootable machine, and fixing them belongs in the drivers that delete the NAPI instances, where each one can pick a point that is safe for its own teardown order, rather than in the shared mt76_dma_cleanup().

2026-08-13net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix port_id extraction from SRC TAGSiddharth Vadapalli1-0/+2
On the packet reception path, the ID of the MAC Port on which the packet was received, is embedded in the RX DMA Descriptor's metadata. The ID is extracted using the helper function cppi5_desc_get_tags_ids() which fills in the 16-bit Source Tag into the 'port_id' variable. However, it is only the lower 8-bits of the 16-bit Source Tag that represent the MAC Port ID, while the upper 8-bits are Hardware-Reserved and carry an arbitrary value. With the existing logic, sporadic kernel crash is observed due to the subsequent driver code accessing out-of-bound memory because of an invalid port_id. Hence, fix the port_id extraction logic to use only the lower 8-bits of the Source Tag as the MAC Port ID.

2026-08-11net: ngbe: fix NULL pointer dereference in non-MSI-X interrupt enablingJiawen Wu1-1/+3
In non-MSI-X mode (such as legacy INTx or single MSI), wx->msix_entry is not allocated or initialized. Calling NGBE_INTR_MISC(wx) dereferences wx->msix_entry->entry, leading to a NULL pointer dereference crash. This issue was introduced by fixing the IRQ vector when the number of VFs is 7. Fix the issue by explicitly checking `pdev->msix_enabled` to determine the correct vector index. Additionally, as a side fix, set the interrupt mask to BIT(0) for the non-MSI-X fallback. In MSI/INTx mode, the MISC and queue interrupts share vector 0, and the WX_PX_MISC_IVAR register is only valid in the MSI-X case. Thus, BIT(0) is the correct mask for the miscellaneous cause when MSI-X is disabled.

2026-08-11net: tap: fix wrong transport_header when sending VLAN-tagged frameWei Fang1-1/+2
In tap_get_user_xdp(), when processing a VLAN-tagged frame (e.g. ETH_P_8021Q), skb_set_network_header() is called first to advance network_header past the VLAN tag to the inner protocol header. skb_probe_transport_header() is then called with skb->protocol still set to ETH_P_8021Q, while nhoff (derived from skb_network_offset()) already points past the VLAN tag to the inner protocol header. In __skb_flow_dissect(), proto is initialized to ETH_P_8021Q and nhoff points past the VLAN tag. When the dissector hits case ETH_P_8021Q, it reads a struct vlan_hdr at the current nhoff via __skb_header_pointer(), but that offset contains the inner protocol header (e.g. an IP header). The bytes are misinterpreted as a VLAN header, yielding a garbage encapsulated EtherType that matches no known protocol. The dissector returns false, so skb_probe_transport_header() never calls skb_set_transport_header(), leaving transport_header at its uninitialized sentinel value (~0U). Move skb_set_network_header() to after skb_probe_transport_header(). At the time skb_probe_transport_header() is called, network_header still points to the VLAN header (offset ETH_HLEN), so nhoff is correct and the flow dissector can parse the VLAN header, extract the inner EtherType, and advance nhoff to the inner protocol header, allowing transport_header to be set correctly.

2026-08-11vxlan: do not arm the ageing timer on a device that is downBaul Lee1-1/+1
vxlan_changelink() arms vxlan->age_timer whenever the requested ageing interval differs from the configured one: if (conf.age_interval != vxlan->cfg.age_interval) mod_timer(&vxlan->age_timer, jiffies); There is no netif_running() test, so the timer is armed even on a device that was never brought up. The only synchronous cancel in the driver is the timer_delete_sync() in vxlan_stop(), which is .ndo_stop. netif_close_many() drops devices without IFF_UP before __dev_close_many() runs, so that cancel is skipped for such a device. vxlan_setup() sets dev->needs_free_netdev = true and age_timer is a member of struct vxlan_dev, so free_netdev() releases the allocation the timer lives in while it is still queued on a timer_base. expire_timers() unlinks the entry before it loads timer->function, so the timer core writes through the freed object's list pointers: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __run_timers+0x208/0x654 Write of size 8 at addr ffff00001adace68 by task true/192 __asan_store8+0x84/0xac __run_timers+0x208/0x654 run_timer_softirq+0x154/0x18c Allocated by task 189: alloc_netdev_mqs+0x64/0x720 rtnl_create_link+0x4ac/0x520 rtnl_newlink+0x758/0xd00 Freed by task 191: netdev_release+0x40/0x58 netdev_run_todo+0x4a4/0x8c0 rtnl_dellink+0x200/0x4e8 The rtnl operations involved are netns-scoped, so an unprivileged user can perform them in a new user and network namespace.

ntb_netdev_rx_handler() hands the received skb to the network stack before allocating its replacement. If the allocation fails, nothing is reposted. Every failure therefore takes one buffer out of the RX queue while the interface remains up, and enough failures eventually stall reception. A retry path could refill the queue later, but ntb_netdev has none. Allocate the replacement first instead. If that fails, drop the packet and repost the same skb.

2026-08-11veth: fix queue index used to wake the peer txq in veth_pollJonas Köppeler1-1/+1
veth_poll() derives the index of the peer TX queue to wake from rq->xdp_rxq.queue_index. That field is only initialized by xdp_rxq_info_reg() in veth_enable_xdp_range(), which runs only when an XDP program is attached. On the plain GRO/NAPI path (veth_napi_enable_range()) xdp_rxq_info_reg() is never called, so queue_index stays 0 for every queue, as priv->rq is zero-allocated. So in a multi-queue setup with GRO enabled and no XDP program attached, every NAPI instance looks at the peer's TX queue 0. If veth_xmit() stops peer TX queue 1 because the ptr_ring is full (NETDEV_TX_BUSY), nothing ever wakes it again: the poller draining queue 1 wakes queue 0 instead. veth implements no ndo_tx_timeout, so the netdev watchdog does not kick in either, and the queue stays stopped indefinitely. Derive the index from the position of the rq within priv->rq instead, which is correct regardless of whether XDP was ever enabled.

2026-08-11macvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from lowerdevEric Dumazet1-0/+4
macvlan devices inherit hard_header_len from lowerdev during macvlan_init(), but leave needed_headroom and needed_tailroom set to 0. When the underlying lowerdev requires extra headroom or tailroom for headers/trailers (e.g. macsec, ipsec, wireguard, tunnels, or veth with rx headroom), upper layers calculating packet headroom and tailroom fail to reserve sufficient space. This can result in reallocation overhead, skb headroom underflows, or KASAN slab-use-after-free crashes when dev_hard_header() / macvlan_hard_header() prepends header data or when lower devices append tailroom. Fix this by: 1. Inheriting needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from lowerdev in macvlan_init(). 2.

2026-08-11eth: bnxt: avoid deadlock when canceling IRQ affinity notifierJakub Kicinski2-25/+64
Unregistering IRQ affinity notifiers waits for the callback synchronously. bnxt takes the netdev instance lock in the notifier (to restart the queue) and cancels the work under the same lock. This may obviously deadlock. Move the restart to the async service task. The queue restart isn't super time sensitive. Store the new TPH tag, schedule the task. Safely canceling the service task is already ironed out. In bnxt_request_irq() the order of registering notifier, affinity and initial TPH programming has to be inverted. I think it was racy previously since user may trigger an update as soon as notifier is installed. There's a small known gap - if pcie_tph_get_cpu_st() fails at init and the target tag is 0 we may miss programming the entry. This does not seem worth fixing, the code has skip-on-failure all over the place, anyway.

2026-08-09ovpn: defer key slot crypto freeing to workqueueRalf Lici4-16/+18
Key slots are released through a kref and the existing release path frees the AEAD transforms from an RCU callback. That is not safe for all crypto implementations: crypto_free_aead can sleep, for example when an async or hardware implementation has teardown work to complete. Use queue_rcu_work for key-slot release. This keeps the RCU grace period needed by lockless key-slot readers, but runs the actual crypto teardown from workqueue context where sleeping is allowed. Once the rcu_work callback runs, pre-existing RCU readers are gone, and the final kref put already proves that no transform user remains, so the worker can release the AEAD transforms and free the slot directly. The previous patch drains ovpn_wq during module exit, so queued key-slot teardown work cannot outlive module text.

2026-08-09ovpn: run deferred work on a module-owned workqueueRalf Lici4-10/+30
ovpn queues several work items whose callbacks execute module text. These works currently run on the global system workqueues, so module exit has no driver-owned drain point that guarantees the callbacks have fully returned before the module text can be freed. Object references protect the objects used by the callbacks, but they do not prove that a workqueue function has returned. In particular, a worker can drop the final reference that unblocks device teardown while it is still executing ovpn code. Add a module-owned workqueue and queue all ovpn work items on it. During module exit, unregister rtnl and netlink first, flush the workqueue so ordinary ovpn workers finish, run the final RCU barrier, and destroy the workqueue last. This keeps the workqueue available for cleanup work queued from RCU callbacks, while ensuring no ovpn work item can outlive the module text. The per-device delayed keepalive work remains explicitly disabled during netdev teardown (disable_delayed_work_sync in ndo_uninit), since flush_workqueue does not flush delayed work that is still only pending on its timer.

2026-08-08veth: fix skb length accounting after XDP frag adjustmentSun Jian1-8/+14
veth exposes non-linear skb fragments through an xdp_buff. If an XDP program adjusts the fragment area, veth_xdp_rcv_skb() copies xdp_frags_size back to skb->data_len but leaves skb->len containing the old fragment contribution. After a fragment shrink, this makes skb_headlen() larger than the actual linear area. In the reproduced UDP receive path, __skb_datagram_iter() copied 1024 bytes past the actual linear tail to userspace, starting at struct skb_shared_info. The copied bytes included the affected skb's nr_frags, xdp_frags_size, and a kernel pointer from skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[0]. Real packet data was displaced by the same amount and truncated at the end. Subtract the old data_len before replacing it and add the new data_len afterwards, keeping skb->len and skb->data_len synchronized. Additionally, bpf_xdp_pull_data() can advance data_end while leaving frags present. The skb is then still non-linear, so the old __skb_put(skb, off) triggers SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT(). Use skb_set_tail_pointer() and update skb->len explicitly instead, following bpf_prog_run_generic_xdp(). Unlike __skb_put(), skb_set_tail_pointer() does not require a linear skb. A 60000-byte UDP datagram on a veth pair with MTU 64000 was shortened by 1024 bytes from its fragment area. Before the fix, all 10 runs produced corrupted payloads. After the fix, all 10 runs matched the expected payload exactly. A forced-tailroom reproducer also exercises bpf_xdp_pull_data() with frags still present; the old code triggers SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT(), while this fix passes 10/10 runs.

2026-08-07ovpn: finish crypto callback cleanup before peer releaseRalf Lici1-5/+5

Do not release that peer reference before the callback has finished its own cleanup. If ovpn_crypto_key_slot_put runs after ovpn_peer_put, it can schedule an RCU callback backed by module text after ovpn_cleanup rcu_barrier has already run.

2026-08-06igc: fix netdev not re-attached after resume if interface is downPhilipp David1-3/+5
__igc_resume() calls netif_device_attach() only inside the netif_running() branch, so an interface that was down during suspend is never re-attached on resume. It then stays in the not-present state that __igc_shutdown() set via netif_device_detach(): ethtool reports ENODEV and every attempt to bring the interface up fails the netif_device_present() check in __dev_open() with -ENODEV, silently, since __igc_resume() returns 0. Only reloading the driver recovers the device. This is easy to hit in practice because NetworkManager brings managed interfaces down before sleep unless Wake-on-LAN is configured, making the adapter unusable after every suspend/resume cycle with WoL disabled.

2026-08-06net: usb: ipheth: fix carrier_work UAF on disconnectDoruk Tan Ozturk1-1/+10
ipheth_sndbulk_callback() re-arms the carrier-check work on any non-zero URB status: else schedule_delayed_work(&dev->carrier_work, 0); Nothing ties that to the interface being up, so the work can be armed again after ipheth_close() has already drained it, and stay armed until the netdev whose private area embeds it is freed. On unplug with a TX URB in flight, ipheth_disconnect() drains the work through unregister_netdev() -> ipheth_close() -> cancel_delayed_work_sync() and only then calls ipheth_kill_urbs(). usb_kill_urb() completes the in-flight TX URB with -ENOENT, so ipheth_sndbulk_callback() runs after the drain and re-arms carrier_work. The same completion also re-arms the work if the interface is only brought down while a TX URB is in flight, and ipheth_carrier_check_work() then keeps re-queueing itself once a second. unregister_netdev() does not call ipheth_close() for an already-down interface, so nothing drains it on the later unplug either. In both cases free_netdev() frees the netdev while carrier_work is still pending, and ipheth_carrier_check_work() dereferences freed memory. Tie the work to the interface state instead of chasing the completion: disable it in ipheth_close() and enable it in ipheth_open(), so a schedule_delayed_work() from the URB completion is a no-op whenever the interface is not up. disable_delayed_work_sync() also waits for a running instance, so it fully replaces the cancel_delayed_work_sync() it takes the place of. The work starts out disabled in ipheth_probe() so the enable/disable counts balance from the first open. Reproduced under KASAN on linux-next (next-20260731) with dummy_hcd and raw-gadget standing in for the device, driving the second path above (the interface is already down, so unregister_netdev() does not call ipheth_close()): 15 of 15 unpatched boots report a slab-use-after-free in __run_timers(), freed by ipheth_disconnect() and re-armed from ipheth_sndbulk_callback() via queue_delayed_work_on(). The same trigger on a kernel differing only by this patch reports 0 of 15, and the carrier check still functions across open/close cycles. The reproducer needs an attached USB device that stops draining bulk OUT, plus a link down and unplug, driven as root. It is not a privilege boundary crossing and no exploit primitive was developed.

2026-08-06net: thunderbolt: Tear down DMA paths before stopping the ringsFan XinRan1-5/+15
tbnet_tear_down() stops both rings and frees their frame buffers before calling tb_xdomain_disable_paths(). tb_ring_stop() zeroes the ring's descriptor base and tbnet_free_buffers() unmaps and frees the pages the frames sit in, so by the time __tb_path_deactivate_hop() polls the hop's 'pending' bit, anything still in flight has nowhere to drain to. The teardown sequence has been in this order since the driver was added. The setup path has not: commit ff7cd07f3064 ("net: thunderbolt: Enable DMA paths only after rings are enabled") moved the path enable to the end of tbnet_connected_work() and documented why: /* Both logins successful so enable the rings, high-speed DMA * paths and start the network device queue. * * Note we enable the DMA paths last to make sure we have primed * the Rx ring before any incoming packets are allowed to * arrive. */ Teardown was never updated to match, so the rings and the paths now come down in the same order they go up instead of in reverse. On an ASMedia ASM4242 host router the 'pending' bit then never clears: every teardown burns the full 500 ms timeout and __tb_path_deactivate_hop() returns -ETIMEDOUT. Raising the timeout to 5 s does not help, so the hop is not slow to drain, it never drains at all. The failure is invisible above the thunderbolt core. __tb_path_deactivate_hops() is void and only calls tb_port_warn(); tb_path_deactivate(), tb_tunnel_deactivate() and __tb_disconnect_xdomain_paths() are void as well, and tb_disconnect_xdomain_paths() ends in an unconditional "return 0". So tb_xdomain_disable_paths() reports success and the netdev_warn() below it never fires. Repeated teardowns eventually take the XDomain control channel down, after which the peer node is gone and only a power cycle brings the controller back. Deactivating the paths first fixes it. Measured with kretprobes on a stock v6.17 tree with no other patches applied, on a link that was up and had just carried traffic: before: __tb_path_deactivate_hop() returns 0 for the first hop, then -ETIMEDOUT for the second 500335 us later after: 0 for both, 525 us apart Alternating the two orderings ABBA over three load levels, four teardowns per arm: every teardown failed before the change (21 of 21 that ran), none failed after (0 of 24). The before arms ran short because the link died partway through. The same split shows up when the interface is enslaved to a bond instead of just brought down, which is how I ran into this in the first place. Throughput and latency after the change are unchanged. Hosts whose routers drain the hop despite the stale descriptor base see no functional difference, since the paths end up deactivated either way.

In function otx2_get_egress_burst_cfg, when the parameter `burst` is 255 and the max mantissa is 255 (0xFFULL), `burst_exp` is set to `ilog2(255) - 1`, which equals 6. This results in an unsigned wrap-around when calculating `(1ULL << (*burst_exp - 7))`, since `*burst_exp - 7` becomes -1, which makes the shift operand 0xFFFFFFFF. This value is greater than the width of the left operand. According to standard 6.5.7 p.3: "The type of the result is that of the promoted left operand. If the value of the right operand is negative or is greater than or equal to the width of the promoted left operand, the behavior is undefined." Fix the off-by-one boundary condition. Add a WARN_ON(*burst_exp < 7) before the else branch as an explicit safeguard. This ensures that if max_mantissa ever changes in a way that reintroduces this condition, it will be immediately caught at runtime rather than silently triggering UB.

A TX trigger selected without a link trigger therefore programs the RX blink bits, and the LED blinks on received traffic. The masks are also used to decode the blink register in mtk_phy_led_hw_ctrl_get(), which as a result cannot tell the two triggers apart: an RX-only configuration reads back as RX and TX, and a TX-only configuration reads back as neither.

The commit 4f61f133f354 ("net: tap: NULL pointer derefence in dev_parse_header_protocol when skb->dev is null") fixed a crash in tap_get_user() by assigning skb->dev before calling tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb(). This is required because virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() may invoke dev_parse_header_protocol(), which dereferences skb->dev. Without the assignment, a NULL pointer dereference can occur. However, tap_get_user_xdp() still parses the virtio-net header before assigning skb->dev. When the vhost TX path passes an XDP buffer containing a GSO virtio-net header but the protocol is set to zero on purpose, tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb() can reach dev_parse_header_protocol() while skb->dev is still NULL, resulting in a crash.

2026-08-05bnxt_en: Disable EOP for TPA on all chips to prevent data corruptionMichael Chan1-4/+7
EOP (End of frame padding) on the AGG ring may cause overlapping of zero padding at the end of one segment with the next segment's data. If Relaxed Ordering (RO) is enabled, the zero padding may overwrite valid data in the next segment and corrupt the data. Older chips (P5 and older) do not automatically disable RO when EOP is enabled. On some ARM systems, data corruption was reported on 57508 (P5) chips with RO enabled. Always disable EOP on all chips on the AGG rings when TPA is enabled to fix the data corruption. Fixes: bfcd8d791ec1 ("bnxt_en: Add fast path logic for TPA on 57500 chips.")

2026-08-05bnxt_en: Determine and store default RX ring in vnic structureShravya KN2-11/+23
Each VNIC has a default RX ring. The purpose of the default RX ring is to provide a destination for any packets that cannot be parsed by the RSS logic. Up until now, the default RX ring is always Ring 0. We neglected to take care of this default RX ring when adding the queue restart feature. If ring 0 (default ring) is re-started, it may now have a new FW ring ID after freeing the old one and allocating a new one. The VNIC now may have a stale default ring and it may generate an internal exception. This exception may appear in dmesg: FW reported unknown error type 10 The best way to resolve this issue is to use a more appropriate ring for the default ring instead of always ring 0. Ring 0 may not even be in the RSS table, especially on a new RSS context. This patch adds the logic to determine and store the proper default RX ring for a VNIC. For an RSS VNIC, the default ring is the lowest ring number in the RSS table. The next patch will add proper logic to update the VNIC if the default ring changes after queue restart.

2026-08-05usbnet: cap max_mtu for drivers without bind callbackLaurent Vivier1-1/+2
usbnet_probe() initializes max_mtu to ETH_MAX_MTU and only caps it inside the if (info->bind) block. Drivers without a bind callback never enter this block, so max_mtu stays at ETH_MAX_MTU. QEMU's usb-net device (0x0525/0xa4a2) is claimed by the cdc_subset driver which has no bind callback. The guest accepts any MTU from DHCP (e.g. 65520 from passt), leading to TCP segments that exceed the device's 2048-byte receive buffer and are silently dropped. Initialize max_mtu to net->mtu at probe time and update it inside the bind block.

2026-08-05net: atlantic: free RX pages of consumed but not refilled buffersYangyu Chen1-4/+18
aq_ring_rx_deinit() only walks [sw_head, sw_tail), the region posted to hardware. Since the page reuse strategy was added, a cleaned RX buffer keeps its page (and its DMA mapping) in the ring for reuse, and refill is batched: aq_ring_rx_fill() returns early until AQ_CFG_RX_REFILL_THRES slots are free. Slots that were consumed but not yet reposted therefore sit in the complementary [sw_tail, sw_head) gap with a live page, and the deinit walk never visits them: up to a refill batch worth of pages and DMA mappings leak on every interface down. Walk the whole ring instead and release whatever is still there. Also bail out if the buffer ring is already gone: a partial aq_ptp_ring_alloc() failure frees the ring but leaves aq_nic set, so aq_ptp_ring_deinit() still gets here on the unwind path.

2026-08-05net: atlantic: free stranded TX buffers on ring deinitYangyu Chen3-1/+31
aq_vec_deinit() drains the TX rings with a single aq_ring_tx_clean() call, which frees at most AQ_CFG_TX_CLEAN_BUDGET (256) descriptors and stops at hw_head, which no longer moves once aq_vec_stop() has stopped the hardware and NAPI. Completed descriptors beyond the budget and everything still posted in [hw_head, sw_tail) keep their skb or xdp_frame when the interface goes down: aq_vec_ring_free() then frees the buffer ring and the references are lost for good. Today this is a silent memory leak on every interface down under TX/XDP_TX load. With the conversion of the RX path to page_pool posted for net-next it becomes much more visible: XDP_TX frames carry fragment references on the RX ring's page_pool, so a single stranded frame keeps the pool's inflight count above zero forever. page_pool_destroy() then never completes, the pool is leaked together with its pages, and "page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown" is warned every 60 seconds from that point on, on every ifdown, XDP detach or ring resize under XDP_TX load. Bring back aq_ring_tx_deinit() as it was before the removal and use it for teardown again, with one extension: TX rings can hold xdp_frames nowadays, so release those too. They are returned with xdp_return_frame() since this runs in process context.

2026-08-05net: stmmac: resume PHY before hardware setup when opening the interfaceStefan Agner1-0/+9
Since the referenced commit, changing the MTU on a running interface no longer disconnects and reconnects the PHY; __stmmac_release() merely stops phylink, which also suspends the PHY (BMCR power-down) when WoL is not enabled. __stmmac_open() then performs the DMA software reset in stmmac_hw_setup() before phylink_start() resumes the PHY again. IEEE 802.3 22.2.4.1.5 allows a PHY to stop its receive clock while powered down, and stmmac requires a running receive clock for the DMA software reset to complete (the phylink config sets mac_requires_rxc). On such setups, e.g. the RK3566-based Home Assistant Green with an RTL8211F-VD PHY in RGMII mode, any runtime MTU change now times out and leaves the interface dead: rk_gmac-dwmac fe010000.ethernet end0: Failed to reset the dma rk_gmac-dwmac fe010000.ethernet end0: stmmac_hw_setup: DMA engine initialization failed rk_gmac-dwmac fe010000.ethernet end0: __stmmac_open: Hw setup failed rk_gmac-dwmac fe010000.ethernet end0: failed reopening the interface after MTU change In the field this is triggered by NetworkManager applying an MTU while activating the connection, breaking networking entirely. The same regression has also been reported on i.MX8MP and reproduced on SoCFPGA based systems. Resume the PHY in __stmmac_open() before the hardware setup, making it the counterpart of the phylink_stop() in __stmmac_release(), like stmmac_resume() already does for the same reason. phylink_start() also resumes the PHY, but only after stmmac_hw_setup(), and it cannot be moved before the hardware setup since it may bring the link up immediately from a workqueue, racing with the initialization (see the comment in stmmac_resume()). For the regular ndo_open path the PHY has just been attached and is not suspended, in which case phylink_prepare_resume() does nothing.

The release callback unconditionally dereferences aux_priv->auxr_dev->pdev to retrieve the parent bnge_dev. Since auxr_dev has not yet been allocated on this failure path, the dereference results in a NULL pointer exception Retrieve the parent bnge_dev from the auxiliary device's parent instead of auxr_dev, and free auxr_dev only when it was successfully allocated.

When the interface has NETIF_F_SG enabled and skb_linearize() fails in ax88179_tx_fixup(), the function returns NULL without freeing the skb. usbnet_start_xmit() treats a NULL return from tx_fixup() as a drop (info->flags does not set FLAG_MULTI_PACKET for this driver), jumping to the "drop" label where it does `if (skb) dev_kfree_skb_any(skb)`. Because tx_fixup() returned NULL, the local skb variable in usbnet_start_xmit() is NULL, so the original skb is never freed — a memory leak on every TX frame whose linearization fails (i.e. under memory pressure). Free the skb before returning, matching the error handling already used for the pskb_expand_head() failure path in the same function.
