In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: Drop the lock in skb_may_tx_timestamp()
skb_may_tx_timestamp() may acquire sock::sk_callback_lock. The lock must
not be taken in IRQ context, only softirq is okay. A few drivers receive
the timestamp via a dedicated interrupt and complete the TX timestamp
from that handler. This will lead to a deadlock if the lock is already
write-locked on the same CPU.
Taking the lock can be avoided. The socket (pointed by the skb) will
remain valid until the skb is released. The ->sk_socket and ->file
member will be set to NULL once the user closes the socket which may
happen before the timestamp arrives.
If we happen to observe the pointer while the socket is closing but
before the pointer is set to NULL then we may use it because both
pointer (and the file's cred member) are RCU freed.
Drop the lock. Use READ_ONCE() to obtain the individual pointer. Add a
matching WRITE_ONCE() where the pointer are cleared.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix locking usage for tcon fields
We used to use the cifs_tcp_ses_lock to protect a lot of objects
that are not just the server, ses or tcon lists. We later introduced
srv_lock, ses_lock and tc_lock to protect fields within the
corresponding structs. This was done to provide a more granular
protection and avoid unnecessary serialization.
There were still a couple of uses of cifs_tcp_ses_lock to provide
tcon fields. In this patch, I've replaced them with tc_lock.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Add SRCU protection for reading PDPTRs in __get_sregs2()

PCI: Fix pci_slot_trylock() error handling
Commit a4e772898f8b ("PCI: Add missing bridge lock to pci_bus_lock()")
delegates the bridge device's pci_dev_trylock() to pci_bus_trylock() in
pci_slot_trylock(), but it forgets to remove the corresponding
pci_dev_unlock() when pci_bus_trylock() fails.
Before a4e772898f8b, the code did:
if (!pci_dev_trylock(dev)) /* <- lock bridge device */
goto unlock;
if (dev->subordinate) {
if (!pci_bus_trylock(dev->subordinate)) {
pci_dev_unlock(dev); /* <- unlock bridge device */
goto unlock;
}
}
After a4e772898f8b the bridge-device lock is no longer taken, but the
pci_dev_unlock(dev) on the failure path was left in place, leading to the
bug.
This yields one of two errors:
1. A warning that the lock is being unlocked when no one holds it.
2. An incorrect unlock of a lock that belongs to another thread.
Fix it by removing the now-redundant pci_dev_unlock(dev) on the failure
path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: ring-buffer: Fix to check event length before using
Check the event length before adding it for accessing next index in
rb_read_data_buffer(). Since this function is used for validating
possibly broken ring buffers, the length of the event could be broken.
In that case, the new event (e + len) can point a wrong address.
To avoid invalid memory access at boot, check whether the length of
each event is in the possible range before using it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
minix: Add required sanity checking to minix_check_superblock()
The fs/minix implementation of the minix filesystem does not currently
support any other value for s_log_zone_size than 0. This is also the
only value supported in util-linux; see mkfs.minix.c line 511. In
addition, this patch adds some sanity checking for the other minix
superblock fields, and moves the minix_blocks_needed() checks for the
zmap and imap also to minix_check_super_block().
This also closes a related syzbot bug report.

drm/amdkfd: Fix out-of-bounds write in kfd_event_page_set()
The kfd_event_page_set() function writes KFD_SIGNAL_EVENT_LIMIT * 8
bytes via memset without checking the buffer size parameter. This allows
unprivileged userspace to trigger an out-of bounds kernel memory write
by passing a small buffer, leading to potential privilege
escalation.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dpaa2-switch: validate num_ifs to prevent out-of-bounds write
The driver obtains sw_attr.num_ifs from firmware via dpsw_get_attributes()
but never validates it against DPSW_MAX_IF (64). This value controls
iteration in dpaa2_switch_fdb_get_flood_cfg(), which writes port indices
into the fixed-size cfg->if_id[DPSW_MAX_IF] array. When firmware reports
num_ifs >= 64, the loop can write past the array bounds.
Add a bound check for num_ifs in dpaa2_switch_init().
dpaa2_switch_fdb_get_flood_cfg() appends the control interface (port
num_ifs) after all matched ports. When num_ifs == DPSW_MAX_IF and all
ports match the flood filter, the loop fills all 64 slots and the control
interface write overflows by one entry.
The check uses >= because num_ifs == DPSW_MAX_IF is also functionally
broken.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
atm: fore200e: fix use-after-free in tasklets during device removal
When the PCA-200E or SBA-200E adapter is being detached, the fore200e
is deallocated. However, the tx_tasklet or rx_tasklet may still be running
or pending, leading to use-after-free bug when the already freed fore200e
is accessed again in fore200e_tx_tasklet() or fore200e_rx_tasklet().
One of the race conditions can occur as follows:
CPU 0 (cleanup) | CPU 1 (tasklet)
fore200e_pca_remove_one() | fore200e_interrupt()
fore200e_shutdown() | tasklet_schedule()
kfree(fore200e) | fore200e_tx_tasklet()
| fore200e-> // UAF
Fix this by ensuring tx_tasklet or rx_tasklet is properly canceled before
the fore200e is released. Add tasklet_kill() in fore200e_shutdown() to
synchronize with any pending or running tasklets. Moreover, since
fore200e_reset() could prevent further interrupts or data transfers,
the tasklet_kill() should be placed after fore200e_reset() to prevent
the tasklet from being rescheduled in fore200e_interrupt(). Finally,
it only needs to do tasklet_kill() when the fore200e state is greater
than or equal to FORE200E_STATE_IRQ, since tasklets are uninitialized
in earlier states. In a word, the tasklet_kill() should be placed in
the FORE200E_STATE_IRQ branch within the switch...case structure.
This bug was identified through static analysis.

net/mlx5e: Fix "scheduling while atomic" in IPsec MAC address query
Fix a "scheduling while atomic" bug in mlx5e_ipsec_init_macs() by
replacing mlx5_query_mac_address() with ether_addr_copy() to get the
local MAC address directly from netdev->dev_addr.
The issue occurs because mlx5_query_mac_address() queries the hardware
which involves mlx5_cmd_exec() that can sleep, but it is called from
the mlx5e_ipsec_handle_event workqueue which runs in atomic context.
The MAC address is already available in netdev->dev_addr, so no need
to query hardware. This avoids the sleeping call and resolves the bug.

tcp: fix potential race in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
Code in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() after the call to tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock()

After tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(), the child socket is already visible
from TCP ehash table and other cpus might use it.
Since newinet->pinet6 is still pointing to the listener ipv6_pinfo
bad things can happen as syzbot found.
Move the problematic code in tcp_v6_mapped_child_init()

the ehash insertion.
This allows the removal of one tcp_sync_mss(), since

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: consume xmit errors of GSO frames
udpgro_frglist.sh and udpgro_bench.sh are the flakiest tests
currently in NIPA. They fail in the same exact way, TCP GRO
test stalls occasionally and the test gets killed after 10min.
These tests use veth to simulate GRO. They attach a trivial
("return XDP_PASS;") XDP program to the veth to force TSO off
and NAPI on.
Digging into the failure mode we can see that the connection
is completely stuck after a burst of drops. The sender's snd_nxt
is at sequence number N [1], but the receiver claims to have
received (rcv_nxt) up to N + 3 * MSS [2]. Last piece of the puzzle
is that senders rtx queue is not empty (let's say the block in
the rtx queue is at sequence number N - 4 * MSS [3]).
In this state, sender sends a retransmission from the rtx queue
with a single segment, and sequence numbers N-4*MSS:N-3*MSS [3].
Receiver sees it and responds with an ACK all the way up to
N + 3 * MSS [2]. But sender will reject this ack as TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATA
because it has no recollection of ever sending data that far out [1].
And we are stuck.
The root cause is the mess of the xmit return codes. veth returns
an error when it can't xmit a frame. We end up with a loss event
like this:
-------------------------------------------------
| GSO super frame 1 | GSO super frame 2 |
|-----------------------------------------------|
| seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
-------------------------------------------------
x ok ok <ok>| ok ok ok <x>
\\
snd_nxt
"x" means packet lost by veth, and "ok" means it went thru.
Since veth has TSO disabled in this test it sees individual segments.
Segment 1 is on the retransmit queue and will be resent.
So why did the sender not advance snd_nxt even tho it clearly did
send up to seg 8? tcp_write_xmit() interprets the return code
from the core to mean that data has not been sent at all. Since
TCP deals with GSO super frames, not individual segment the crux
of the problem is that loss of a single segment can be interpreted
as loss of all. TCP only sees the last return code for the last
segment of the GSO frame (in <> brackets in the diagram above).
Of course for the problem to occur we need a setup or a device
without a Qdisc. Otherwise Qdisc layer disconnects the protocol
layer from the device errors completely.
We have multiple ways to fix this.
1) make veth not return an error when it lost a packet.
While this is what I think we did in the past, the issue keeps
reappearing and it's annoying to debug. The game of whack
a mole is not great.
2) fix the damn return codes
We only talk about NETDEV_TX_OK and NETDEV_TX_BUSY in the
documentation, so maybe we should make the return code from
ndo_start_xmit() a boolean. I like that the most, but perhaps
some ancient, not-really-networking protocol would suffer.
3) make TCP ignore the errors
It is not entirely clear to me what benefit TCP gets from
interpreting the result of ip_queue_xmit()? Specifically once
the connection is established and we're pushing data - packet
loss is just packet loss?
4) this fix
Ignore the rc in the Qdisc-less+GSO case, since it's unreliable.
We already always return OK in the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS case.
In the Qdisc-less case let's be a bit more conservative and only
mask the GSO errors. This path is taken by non-IP-"networks"
like CAN, MCTP etc, so we could regress some ancient thing.
This is the simplest, but also maybe the hackiest fix?
Similar fix has been proposed by Eric in the past but never committed
because original reporter was working with an OOT driver and wasn't
providing feedback (see Link).

drm/amd/display: Adjust PHY FSM transition to TX_EN-to-PLL_ON for TMDS on DCN35
[Why]
A backport of the change made for DCN401 that addresses an issue where
we turn off the PHY PLL when disabling TMDS output, which causes the
OTG to remain stuck.
The OTG being stuck can lead to a hang in the DCHVM's ability to ACK
invalidations when it thinks the HUBP is still on but it's not receiving
global sync.
The transition to PLL_ON needs to be atomic as there's no guarantee
that the thread isn't pre-empted or is able to complete before the
IOMMU watchdog times out.
[How]
Backport the implementation from dcn401 back to dcn35.
There's a functional difference in when the eDP output is disabled in
dcn401 code so we don't want to utilize it directly.

netfilter: xt_tcpmss: check remaining length before reading optlen
Quoting reporter:
In net/netfilter/xt_tcpmss.c (lines 53-68), the TCP option parser reads
op[i+1] directly without validating the remaining option length.
If the last byte of the option field is not EOL/NOP (0/1), the code attempts
to index op[i+1]. In the case where i + 1 == optlen, this causes an
out-of-bounds read, accessing memory past the optlen boundary
(either reading beyond the stack buffer _opt or the
following payload).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: v4l2-async: Fix error handling on steps after finding a match
Once an async connection is found to be matching with an fwnode, a
sub-device may be registered (in case it wasn't already), its bound
operation is called, ancillary links are created, the async connection
is added to the sub-device's list of connections and removed from the
global waiting connection list. Further on, the sub-device's possible own
notifier is searched for possible additional matches.
Fix these specific issues:
- If v4l2_async_match_notify() failed before the sub-notifier handling,
the async connection was unbound and its entry removed from the
sub-device's async connection list. The latter part was also done in
v4l2_async_match_notify().
- The async connection's sd field was only set after creating ancillary
links in v4l2_async_match_notify(). It was however dereferenced in
v4l2_async_unbind_subdev_one(), which was called on error path of
v4l2_async_match_notify() failure.

buffer with GFP_NOWAIT. Failures are common (and expected) under this
allocation mode; they should flush (not abort) the batch.
However, ceph_process_folio_batch() uses the same `rc` variable for its
own return code and for capturing the return codes of its routine calls;
failing to reset `rc` back to 0 results in the error being propagated
out to the main writeback loop, which cannot actually tolerate any
errors here: once `ceph_wbc.pages` is allocated, it must be passed to
ceph_submit_write() to be freed. If it survives until the next iteration
(e.g. due to the goto being followed), ceph_allocate_page_array()'s
BUG_ON() will oops the worker.
Note that this failure mode is currently masked due to another bug
(addressed next in this series) that prevents multiple encrypted folios
from being selected for the same write.
For now, just reset `rc` when redirtying the folio to prevent errors in
move_dirty_folio_in_page_array() from propagating. Note that
move_dirty_folio_in_page_array() is careful never to return errors on
the first folio, so there is no need to check for that. After this
change, ceph_process_folio_batch() no longer returns errors; its only
remaining failure indicator is `locked_pages == 0`, which the caller
already handles correctly.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: delete attr leaf freemap entries when empty
Back in commit 2a2b5932db6758 ("xfs: fix attr leaf header freemap.size
underflow"), Brian Foster observed that it's possible for a small
freemap at the end of the end of the xattr entries array to experience
a size underflow when subtracting the space consumed by an expansion of
the entries array. There are only three freemap entries, which means
that it is not a complete index of all free space in the leaf block.
This code can leave behind a zero-length freemap entry with a nonzero
base. Subsequent setxattr operations can increase the base up to the
point that it overlaps with another freemap entry. This isn't in and of
itself a problem because the code in _leaf_add that finds free space
ignores any freemap entry with zero size.
However, there's another bug in the freemap update code in _leaf_add,
which is that it fails to update a freemap entry that begins midway
through the xattr entry that was just appended to the array. That can
result in the freemap containing two entries with the same base but
different sizes (0 for the "pushed-up" entry, nonzero for the entry
that's actually tracking free space). A subsequent _leaf_add can then
allocate xattr namevalue entries on top of the entries array, leading to
data loss. But fixing that is for later.
For now, eliminate the possibility of confusion by zeroing out the base
of any freemap entry that has zero size. Because the freemap is not
intended to be a complete index of free space, a subsequent failure to
find any free space for a new xattr will trigger block compaction, which
regenerates the freemap.
It looks like this bug has been in the codebase for quite a long time.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: ioam: fix heap buffer overflow in __ioam6_fill_trace_data()
On the receive path, __ioam6_fill_trace_data() uses trace->nodelen
to decide how much data to write for each node. It trusts this field
as-is from the incoming packet, with no consistency check against
trace->type (the 24-bit field that tells which data items are
present). A crafted packet can set nodelen=0 while setting type bits
0-21, causing the function to write ~100 bytes past the allocated
region (into skb_shared_info), which corrupts adjacent heap memory
and leads to a kernel panic.
Add a shared helper ioam6_trace_compute_nodelen() in ioam6.c to
derive the expected nodelen from the type field, and use it:
- in ioam6_iptunnel.c (send path, existing validation) to replace
the open-coded computation;
- in exthdrs.c (receive path, ipv6_hop_ioam) to drop packets whose
nodelen is inconsistent with the type field, before any data is
written.
Per RFC 9197, bits 12-21 are each short (4-octet) fields, so they
are included in IOAM6_MASK_SHORT_FIELDS (changed from 0xff100000 to
0xff1ffc00).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix signededness bug in smb_direct_prepare_negotiation()
smb_direct_prepare_negotiation() casts an unsigned __u32 value
from sp->max_recv_size and req->preferred_send_size to a signed
int before computing min_t(int, ...). A maliciously provided
preferred_send_size of 0x80000000 will return as smaller than
max_recv_size, and then be used to set the maximum allowed
alowed receive size for the next message.
By sending a second message with a large value (>1420 bytes)
the attacker can then achieve a heap buffer overflow.
This fix replaces min_t(int, ...) with min_t(u32)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rnbd-srv: Zero the rsp buffer before using it
Before using the data buffer to send back the response message, zero it
completely. This prevents any stray bytes to be picked up by the client
side when there the message is exchanged between different protocol
versions.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: cx25821: Fix a resource leak in cx25821_dev_setup()
Add release_mem_region() if ioremap() fails to release the memory
region obtained by cx25821_get_resources().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: ccs: Avoid possible division by zero
Calculating maximum M for scaler configuration involves dividing by
MIN_X_OUTPUT_SIZE limit register's value. Albeit the value is presumably
non-zero, the driver was missing the check it in fact was. Fix this.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: sysfs: fix chip removal with GPIOs exported over sysfs
Currently if we export a GPIO over sysfs and unbind the parent GPIO
controller, the exported attribute will remain under /sys/class/gpio
because once we remove the parent device, we can no longer associate the
descriptor with it in gpiod_unexport() and never drop the final
reference.
Rework the teardown code: provide an unlocked variant of
gpiod_unexport() and remove all exported GPIOs with the sysfs_lock taken
before unregistering the parent device itself. This is done to prevent
any new exports happening before we unregister the device completely.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: kaweth: remove TX queue manipulation in kaweth_set_rx_mode
kaweth_set_rx_mode(), the ndo_set_rx_mode callback, calls
netif_stop_queue() and netif_wake_queue(). These are TX queue flow
control functions unrelated to RX multicast configuration.
The premature netif_wake_queue() can re-enable TX while tx_urb is still
in-flight, leading to a double usb_submit_urb() on the same URB:
kaweth_start_xmit() {
netif_stop_queue();
usb_submit_urb(kaweth->tx_urb);
}
kaweth_set_rx_mode() {
netif_stop_queue();
netif_wake_queue(); // wakes TX queue before URB is done
}
kaweth_start_xmit() {
netif_stop_queue();
usb_submit_urb(kaweth->tx_urb); // URB submitted while active
}
This triggers the WARN in usb_submit_urb():
"URB submitted while active"
This is a similar class of bug fixed in rtl8150 by
- commit 958baf5eaee3 ("net: usb: Remove disruptive netif_wake_queue in rtl8150_set_multicast").
Also kaweth_set_rx_mode() is already functionally broken, the
real set_rx_mode action is performed by kaweth_async_set_rx_mode(),
which in turn is not a no-op only at ndo_open() time.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix incorrect early exits for invalid metabox-enabled images
Crafted EROFS images with metadata compression enabled can trigger
incorrect early returns, leading to folio reference leaks.
However, this does not cause system crashes or other severe issues.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
procfs: fix possible double mmput() in do_procmap_query()
When user provides incorrectly sized buffer for build ID for PROCMAP_QUERY
we return with -ENAMETOOLONG error. After recent changes this condition
happens later, after we unlocked mmap_lock/per-VMA lock and did mmput(),
so original goto out is now wrong and will double-mmput() mm_struct. Fix
by jumping further to clean up only vm_file and name_buf.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: ipu6: Fix RPM reference leak in probe error paths
Several error paths in ipu6_pci_probe() were jumping directly to
out_ipu6_bus_del_devices without releasing the runtime PM reference.
Add pm_runtime_put_sync() before cleaning up other resources.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: pci: validate release report content before using for RTL8922DE
The commit 957eda596c76
("wifi: rtw89: pci: validate sequence number of TX release report")
does validation on existing chips, which somehow a release report of SKB
becomes malformed. As no clear cause found, add rules ahead for RTL8922DE
to avoid crash if it happens.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: rs9: Reserve 8 struct clk_hw slots for for 9FGV0841
The 9FGV0841 has 8 outputs and registers 8 struct clk_hw, make sure
there are 8 slots for those newly registered clk_hw pointers, else
there is going to be out of bounds write when pointers 4..7 are set
into struct rs9_driver_data .clk_dif[4..7] field.
Since there are other structure members past this struct clk_hw
pointer array, writing to .clk_dif[4..7] fields corrupts both
the struct rs9_driver_data content and data around it, sometimes
without crashing the kernel. However, the kernel does surely
crash when the driver is unbound or during suspend.
Fix this, increase the struct clk_hw pointer array size to the
maximum output count of 9FGV0841, which is the biggest chip that
is supported by this driver.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/zcrx: fix post open error handling
Closing a queue doesn't guarantee that all associated page pools are
terminated right away, let the refcounting do the work instead of
releasing the zcrx ctx directly.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

returns -ENODEV.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: fix 22000 series SMEM parsing
If the firmware were to report three LMACs (which doesn't
exist in hardware) then using "fwrt->smem_cfg.lmac[2]" is
an overrun of the array. Reject such and use IWL_FW_CHECK
instead of WARN_ON in this function.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EFI/CPER: don't dump the entire memory region
The current logic at cper_print_fw_err() doesn't check if the
error record length is big enough to handle offset. On a bad firmware,
if the ofset is above the actual record, length -= offset will
underflow, making it dump the entire memory.
The end result can be:
- the logic taking a lot of time dumping large regions of memory;
- data disclosure due to the memory dumps;
- an OOPS, if it tries to dump an unmapped memory region.
Fix it by checking if the section length is too small before doing
a hex dump.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc3: gadget: Move vbus draw to workqueue context
Currently dwc3_gadget_vbus_draw() can be called from atomic
context, which in turn invokes power-supply-core APIs. And
some these PMIC APIs have operations that may sleep, leading
to kernel panic.
Fix this by moving the vbus_draw into a workqueue context.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/buddy: Prevent BUG_ON by validating rounded allocation
When DRM_BUDDY_CONTIGUOUS_ALLOCATION is set, the requested size is
rounded up to the next power-of-two via roundup_pow_of_two().
Similarly, for non-contiguous allocations with large min_block_size,
the size is aligned up via round_up(). Both operations can produce a
rounded size that exceeds mm->size, which later triggers
BUG_ON(order > mm->max_order).
Example scenarios:
- 9G CONTIGUOUS allocation on 10G VRAM memory:
roundup_pow_of_two(9G) = 16G > 10G
- 9G allocation with 8G min_block_size on 10G VRAM memory:
round_up(9G, 8G) = 16G > 10G
Fix this by checking the rounded size against mm->size. For
non-contiguous or range allocations where size > mm->size is invalid,
return -EINVAL immediately. For contiguous allocations without range
restrictions, allow the request to fall through to the existing
__alloc_contig_try_harder() fallback.
This ensures invalid user input returns an error or uses the fallback
path instead of hitting BUG_ON.

ocfs2: fix reflink preserve cleanup issue
commit c06c303832ec ("ocfs2: fix xattr array entry __counted_by error")
doesn't handle all cases and the cleanup job for preserved xattr entries
still has bug:
- the 'last' pointer should be shifted by one unit after cleanup
an array entry.
- current code logic doesn't cleanup the first entry when xh_count is 1.
Note, commit c06c303832ec is also a bug fix for 0fe9b66c65f3.

This is because commit d77e38e612a0 ("xfrm: Add an IPsec hardware
offloading API") implemented xfrm_dev_unregister() as no-op despite
xfrm_dev_state_add() from xfrm_state_construct() acquires a reference
to "struct net_device".
I guess that that commit expected that NETDEV_DOWN event is fired before
NETDEV_UNREGISTER event fires, and also assumed that xfrm_dev_state_add()
is called only if (dev->features & NETIF_F_HW_ESP) != 0.
Sabrina Dubroca identified steps to reproduce the same symptoms as below.
echo 0 > /sys/bus/netdevsim/new_device
dev=$(ls -1 /sys/bus/netdevsim/devices/netdevsim0/net/)
ip xfrm state add src 192.168.13.1 dst 192.168.13.2 proto esp \
spi 0x1000 mode tunnel aead 'rfc4106(gcm(aes))' $key 128 \
offload crypto dev $dev dir out
ethtool -K $dev esp-hw-offload off
echo 0 > /sys/bus/netdevsim/del_device
Like these steps indicate, the NETIF_F_HW_ESP bit can be cleared after
xfrm_dev_state_add() acquired a reference to "struct net_device".
Also, xfrm_dev_state_add() does not check for the NETIF_F_HW_ESP bit
when acquiring a reference to "struct net_device".
Commit 03891f820c21 ("xfrm: handle NETDEV_UNREGISTER for xfrm device")
re-introduced the NETDEV_UNREGISTER event to xfrm_dev_event(), but that
commit for unknown reason chose to share xfrm_dev_down() between the
NETDEV_DOWN event and the NETDEV_UNREGISTER event.
I guess that that commit missed the behavior in the previous paragraph.
Therefore, we need to re-introduce xfrm_dev_unregister() in order to
release the reference to "struct net_device" by unconditionally flushing
state and policy.
