Subject: net: pch_gbe: handle TX skb allocation failure
X-Git-Tag: v7.2-rc1~29^2~99
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a0aa6bf985aa5f22f7d398ddfff3aa0754892aea;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

net: pch_gbe: handle TX skb allocation failure

pch_gbe_alloc_tx_buffers() allocates an skb for each TX descriptor and
then passes the returned pointer to skb_reserve(). If netdev_alloc_skb()
fails, skb_reserve() dereferences NULL.

Make pch_gbe_alloc_tx_buffers() return an error when an skb allocation
fails. On failure, let pch_gbe_alloc_tx_buffers() clean the partially
allocated TX ring before returning the error. While bringing the device
up, release the RX buffer pool through a shared cleanup helper before
unwinding the IRQ setup.
