From dcf4ff7a48e7598e6b10126cc02177abb8ae4f3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Marek=20Marczykowski-G=C3=B3recki?= marmarek@invisiblethingslab.com Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2022 22:19:54 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] xen/netfront: destroy queues before real_num_tx_queues is zeroed MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
xennet_destroy_queues() relies on info->netdev->real_num_tx_queues to delete queues. Since d7dac083414eb5bb99a6d2ed53dc2c1b405224e5 ("net-sysfs: update the queue counts in the unregistration path"), unregister_netdev() indirectly sets real_num_tx_queues to 0. Those two facts together means, that xennet_destroy_queues() called from xennet_remove() cannot do its job, because it's called after unregister_netdev(). This results in kfree-ing queues that are still linked in napi, which ultimately crashes:

Fix this by calling xennet_destroy_queues() from xennet_uninit(), when real_num_tx_queues is still available. This ensures that queues are destroyed when real_num_tx_queues is set to 0, regardless of how unregister_netdev() was called.
