ice: Fix memory leak in ice_set_ringparam()
In ice_set_ringparam, tx_rings and xdp_rings are allocated before
rx_rings. If the allocation of rx_rings fails, the code jumps to
the done label leaking both tx_rings and xdp_rings. Furthermore, if
the setup of an individual Rx ring fails during the loop, the code jumps
to the free_tx label which releases tx_rings but leaks xdp_rings.
Fix this by introducing a free_xdp label and updating the error paths to
ensure both xdp_rings and tx_rings are properly freed if rx_rings
allocation or setup fails.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review.

rcu_softirq_qs_periodic inside napi_threaded_poll_loop to report its

because napi_threaded_poll_loop rarely iterates in threaded busypoll,
and each time napi_threaded_poll_loop is called last_qs is reset to
latest jiffies.
This patch changes so that in threaded busypoll, last_qs is saved
in the outer napi_threaded_poll, and whether busy_poll_last_qs
is NULL indicates whether napi_threaded_poll_loop is called for
busypoll. This way last_qs would not reset to latest jiffies on

bonding: fix missing XDP compat check on xmit_hash_policy change
syzkaller reported a bug https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=5a287bcdc08104bc3132
When a bond device is in 802.3ad or balance-xor mode, XDP is supported
only when xmit_hash_policy != vlan+srcmac. This constraint is enforced
in bond_option_mode_set() via bond_xdp_check(), which prevents switching
to an XDP-incompatible mode while a program is loaded. However, the
symmetric path -- changing xmit_hash_policy while XDP is loaded -- had
no such guard in bond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set().
This means the following sequence silently creates an inconsistent state:
1. Create a bond in 802.3ad mode with xmit_hash_policy=layer2+3.
2. Attach a native XDP program to the bond.
3. Change xmit_hash_policy to vlan+srcmac (no error, not checked).
Now bond->xdp_prog is set but bond_xdp_check() returns false for the
same device. When the bond is later torn down (e.g. netns deletion),
dev_xdp_uninstall() calls bond_xdp_set(dev, NULL) to remove the
program, which hits the bond_xdp_check() guard and returns -EOPNOTSUPP,
triggering a kernel WARNING:
Beyond the WARNING itself, when dev_xdp_install() fails during
dev_xdp_uninstall(), bond_xdp_set() returns early without calling
bpf_prog_put() on the old program. dev_xdp_uninstall() then releases
only the reference held by dev->xdp_state[], while the reference held
by bond->xdp_prog is never dropped, leaking the struct bpf_prog.
The fix refactors the core logic of bond_xdp_check() into a new helper
__bond_xdp_check_mode(mode, xmit_policy) that takes both parameters
explicitly, avoiding the need to read them from the bond struct.
bond_xdp_check() becomes a thin wrapper around it.
bond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set() then uses __bond_xdp_check_mode()
directly, passing the candidate xmit_policy before it is committed,
mirroring exactly what bond_option_mode_set() already does for mode
changes.
Patch 1 adds the kernel fix.
Patch 2 adds a selftest that reproduces the WARNING by attaching native
XDP to a bond in 802.3ad mode, then attempting to change xmit_hash_policy
to vlan+srcmac -- verifying the change is rejected with the fix applied.

succeeds silently, creating an inconsistent state that triggers a kernel

The test attaches native XDP to a bond0 (802.3ad, layer2+3), then

bpf/bonding: reject vlan+srcmac xmit_hash_policy change when XDP is loaded
bond_option_mode_set() already rejects mode changes that would make a
loaded XDP program incompatible via bond_xdp_check(). However,
bond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set() has no such guard.
For 802.3ad and balance-xor modes, bond_xdp_check() returns false when
xmit_hash_policy is vlan+srcmac, because the 802.1q payload is usually
absent due to hardware offload. This means a user can:
1. Attach a native XDP program to a bond in 802.3ad/balance-xor mode
with a compatible xmit_hash_policy (e.g. layer2+3).
2. Change xmit_hash_policy to vlan+srcmac while XDP remains loaded.
This leaves bond->xdp_prog set but bond_xdp_check() now returning false
for the same device. When the bond is later destroyed, dev_xdp_uninstall()
calls bond_xdp_set(dev, NULL, NULL) to remove the program, which hits
the bond_xdp_check() guard and returns -EOPNOTSUPP, triggering:
Fix this by rejecting xmit_hash_policy changes to vlan+srcmac when an
XDP program is loaded on a bond in 802.3ad or balance-xor mode.
commit 39a0876d595b ("net, bonding: Disallow vlan+srcmac with XDP")
introduced bond_xdp_check() which returns false for 802.3ad/balance-xor
modes when xmit_hash_policy is vlan+srcmac. The check was wired into
bond_xdp_set() to reject XDP attachment with an incompatible policy, but
the symmetric path -- preventing xmit_hash_policy from being changed to an
incompatible value after XDP is already loaded -- was left unguarded in
bond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set().
Note:
commit 094ee6017ea0 ("bonding: check xdp prog when set bond mode")
later added a similar guard to bond_option_mode_set(), but
bond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set() remained unprotected.
Commit 1cc93c48b5d7 ("selftests/net: packetdrill: remove tests for
tcp_rcv_*big") removed the test for the reverted commit 1d2fbaad7cd8
("tcp: stronger sk_rcvbuf checks") but also the one for commit 9ca48d616ed7 ("tcp: do not accept packets beyond window").

instead of an immediate one, since tcp_can_ingest() does not fail
anymore for the last data packet.

net: ti: icssg-prueth: Fix ping failure after offload mode setup when link speed is not 1G
When both eth interfaces with links up are added to a bridge or hsr
interface, ping fails if the link speed is not 1Gbps (e.g., 100Mbps).
The issue is seen because when switching to offload (bridge/hsr) mode,
prueth_emac_restart() restarts the firmware and clears DRAM with
memset_io(), setting all memory to 0. This includes PORT_LINK_SPEED_OFFSET
which firmware reads for link speed. The value 0 corresponds to
FW_LINK_SPEED_1G (0x00), so for 1Gbps links the default value is correct
and ping works. For 100Mbps links, the firmware needs FW_LINK_SPEED_100M
(0x01) but gets 0 instead, causing ping to fail. The function
emac_adjust_link() is called to reconfigure, but it detects no state change
(emac->link is still 1, speed/duplex match PHY) so new_state remains false
and icssg_config_set_speed() is never called to correct the firmware speed
value.
The fix resets emac->link to 0 before calling emac_adjust_link() in
prueth_emac_common_start(). This forces new_state=true, ensuring
icssg_config_set_speed() is called to write the correct speed value to
firmware memory.

atm: lec: fix null-ptr-deref in lec_arp_clear_vccs
syzkaller reported a null-ptr-deref in lec_arp_clear_vccs().
This issue can be easily reproduced using the syzkaller reproducer.
In the ATM LANE (LAN Emulation) module, the same atm_vcc can be shared by
multiple lec_arp_table entries (e.g., via entry->vcc or entry->recv_vcc).
When the underlying VCC is closed, lec_vcc_close() iterates over all
ARP entries and calls lec_arp_clear_vccs() for each matched entry.
For example, when lec_vcc_close() iterates through the hlists in
priv->lec_arp_empty_ones or other ARP tables:
1. In the first iteration, for the first matched ARP entry sharing the VCC,
lec_arp_clear_vccs() frees the associated vpriv (which is vcc->user_back)
and sets vcc->user_back to NULL.
2. In the second iteration, for the next matched ARP entry sharing the same
VCC, lec_arp_clear_vccs() is called again. It obtains a NULL vpriv from
vcc->user_back (via LEC_VCC_PRIV(vcc)) and then attempts to dereference it
via `vcc->pop = vpriv->old_pop`, leading to a null-ptr-deref crash.
Fix this by adding a null check for vpriv before dereferencing
it. If vpriv is already NULL, it means the VCC has been cleared
by a previous call, so we can safely skip the cleanup and just
clear the entry's vcc/recv_vcc pointers.
The entire cleanup block (including vcc_release_async()) is placed inside
the vpriv guard because a NULL vpriv indicates the VCC has already been
fully released by a prior iteration — repeating the teardown would
redundantly set flags and trigger callbacks on an already-closing socket.
The Fixes tag points to the initial commit because the entry->vcc path has
been vulnerable since the original code. The entry->recv_vcc path was later
added by commit 8d9f73c0ad2f ("atm: fix a memory leak of vcc->user_back")
with the same pattern, and both paths are fixed here.

This series fixes two issues in AF_XDP zero-copy fragment handling:
Patch 1 fixes a buffer leak caused by incorrect list node handling after
commit b692bf9a7543. The list_node field is now reused for both the xskb

list_del_init() causes list_empty() checks in xp_free() to fail, preventing
buffers from being added to the free list.
Patch 2 fixes partial packet delivery to userspace. In the zero-copy path,
if the Rx queue fills up while enqueuing fragments, the remaining fragments
are dropped, causing the application to receive incomplete packets. The fix
ensures the Rx queue has sufficient space for all fragments before starting
to enqueue them.

After commit b692bf9a7543 ("xsk: Get rid of xdp_buff_xsk::xskb_list_node"),
the list_node field is reused for both the xskb pool list and the buffer
free list, this causes a buffer leak as described below.
xp_free() checks if a buffer is already on the free list using
list_empty(&xskb->list_node). When list_del() is used to remove a node
from the xskb pool list, it doesn't reinitialize the node pointers.
This means list_empty() will return false even after the node has been
removed, causing xp_free() to incorrectly skip adding the buffer to the
free list.
Fix this by using list_del_init() instead of list_del() in all fragment
handling paths, this ensures the list node is reinitialized after removal,

tcp: give up on stronger sk_rcvbuf checks (for now)
We hit another corner case which leads to TcpExtTCPRcvQDrop
Connections which send RPCs in the 20-80kB range over loopback
experience spurious drops. The exact conditions for most of
the drops I investigated are that:
- socket exchanged >1MB of data so its not completely fresh
- rcvbuf is around 128kB (default, hasn't grown)
- there is ~60kB of data in rcvq
- skb > 64kB arrives
The sum of skb->len (!) of both of the skbs (the one already
in rcvq and the arriving one) is larger than rwnd.
My suspicion is that this happens because __tcp_select_window()
rounds the rwnd up to (1 << wscale) if less than half of
the rwnd has been consumed.
Eric suggests that given the number of Fixes we already have
pointing to 1d2fbaad7cd8 it's probably time to give up on it,
until a bigger revamp of rmem management.
Also while we could risk tweaking the rwnd math, there are other
drops on workloads I investigated, after the commit in question,
not explained by this phenomenon.
udp: Unhash auto-bound connected sk from 4-tuple hash table when disconnected.
Let's say we bind() an UDP socket to the wildcard address with a
non-zero port, connect() it to an address, and disconnect it from
the address.
bind() sets SOCK_BINDPORT_LOCK on sk->sk_userlocks (but not
SOCK_BINDADDR_LOCK), and connect() calls udp_lib_hash4() to put
the socket into the 4-tuple hash table.
It computes a new hash based on the wildcard address and moves
the socket to a new slot in the 4-tuple hash table, leaving a
garbage in the chain that no packet hits.
Let's remove such a socket from 4-tuple hash table when disconnected.
Note that udp_sk(sk)->udp_portaddr_hash needs to be udpated after
udp_hash4_dec(hslot2) in udp_unhash4().

net: mana: Ring doorbell at 4 CQ wraparounds
MANA hardware requires at least one doorbell ring every 8 wraparounds
of the CQ. The driver rings the doorbell as a form of flow control to
inform hardware that CQEs have been consumed.
The NAPI poll functions mana_poll_tx_cq() and mana_poll_rx_cq() can
poll up to CQE_POLLING_BUFFER (512) completions per call. If the CQ
has fewer than 512 entries, a single poll call can process more than
4 wraparounds without ringing the doorbell. The doorbell threshold
check also uses ">" instead of ">=", delaying the ring by one extra
CQE beyond 4 wraparounds. Combined, these issues can cause the driver
to exceed the 8-wraparound hardware limit, leading to missed
completions and stalled queues.
Fix this by capping the number of CQEs polled per call to 4 wraparounds
of the CQ in both TX and RX paths. Also change the doorbell threshold
from ">" to ">=" so the doorbell is rung as soon as 4 wraparounds are
reached.

selftests: netfilter: nft_queue.sh: avoid flakes on debug kernels
Jakub reports test flakes on debug kernels:
FAIL: test_udp_gro_ct: Expected software segmentation to occur, had 23 and 17
This test assumes that the kernels nfnetlink_queue module sees N GSO
packets, segments them into M skbs and queues them to userspace for
reinjection.
Hence, if M >= N, no segmentation occurred.
However, its possible that this happens:
- nfnetlink_queue gets GSO packet
- segments that into n skbs
- userspace buffer is full, kernel drops the segmented skbs
-> "toqueue" counter incremented by 1, "fromqueue" is unchanged.
If this happens often enough in a single run, M >= N check triggers
incorrectly.
To solve this, allow the nf_queue.c test program to set the FAIL_OPEN
flag so that the segmented skbs bypass the queueing step in the kernel
if the receive buffer is full.
Also, reduce number of sending socat instances, decrease their priority
and increase nice value for the nf_queue program itself to reduce the
probability of overruns happening in the first place.

netfilter: nf_conntrack_h323: fix OOB read in decode_choice()
In decode_choice(), the boundary check before get_len() uses the
variable `len`, which is still 0 from its initialization at the top of
the function:
unsigned int type, ext, len = 0;
...
if (ext || (son->attr & OPEN)) {
BYTE_ALIGN(bs);
if (nf_h323_error_boundary(bs, len, 0)) /* len is 0 here */
return H323_ERROR_BOUND;
len = get_len(bs); /* OOB read */
When the bitstream is exactly consumed (bs->cur == bs->end), the check
nf_h323_error_boundary(bs, 0, 0) evaluates to (bs->cur + 0 > bs->end),
which is false. The subsequent get_len() call then dereferences
*bs->cur++, reading 1 byte past the end of the buffer. If that byte
has bit 7 set, get_len() reads a second byte as well.
This can be triggered remotely by sending a crafted Q.931 SETUP message
with a User-User Information Element containing exactly 2 bytes of
PER-encoded data ({0x08, 0x00}) to port 1720 through a firewall with
the nf_conntrack_h323 helper active. The decoder fully consumes the
PER buffer before reaching this code path, resulting in a 1-2 byte
heap-buffer-overflow read confirmed by AddressSanitizer.
Fix this by checking for 2 bytes (the maximum that get_len() may read)
instead of the uninitialized `len`. This matches the pattern used at
every other get_len() call site in the same file, where the caller
checks for 2 bytes of available data before calling get_len().

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).

The child_ns_mode sysctl parameter becomes write-once in a future patch

Add "global-parent" and "local-parent" namespaces as intermediaries to
spawn namespaces in the given modes. This avoids the need to change
"child_ns_mode" in the init_ns. nsenter must be used because ip netns
unshares the mount namespace so nested "ip netns add" breaks exec calls
from the init ns. Adds nsenter to the deps check.

The issue occurs because mlx5_query_mac_address() queries the hardware

team: Fix reference count leak when changing port netns
Patch #1 fixes a reference count leak that was reported by syzkaller.
The leak happens when a net device that is member in a team is changing
netns. The fix is to align the team driver with the bond driver and have
it suppress NETDEV_CHANGEMTU events for a net device that is being
unregistered.
Without this change, the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event causes inetdev_event()
to recreate an inet device for this net device in its original netns,
after it was previously destroyed upon NETDEV_UNREGISTER. Later on, when
inetdev_event() receives a NETDEV_REGISTER event for this net device in
the new nents, it simply leaks the reference:
case NETDEV_REGISTER:
pr_debug("%s: bug\n", __func__);
RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->ip_ptr, NULL);
break;
addrconf_notify() handles this differently and reuses the existing inet6
device if one exists when a NETDEV_REGISTER event is received. This
creates a different problem where it is possible for a net device to
reference an inet6 device that was created in a previous netns.
A more generic fix that we can try in net-next is to revert the changes
in the bond and team drivers and instead have IPv4 and IPv6 destroy and
recreate an inet device if one already exists upon NETDEV_REGISTER.
Patch #2 adds a selftest that passes with the fix and hangs without it.

net: mana: Fix double destroy_workqueue on service rescan PCI path
While testing corner cases in the driver, a use-after-free crash
was found on the service rescan PCI path.
When mana_serv_reset() calls mana_gd_suspend(), mana_gd_cleanup()
destroys gc->service_wq. If the subsequent mana_gd_resume() fails
with -ETIMEDOUT or -EPROTO, the code falls through to
mana_serv_rescan() which triggers pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device().
This invokes the PCI .remove callback (mana_gd_remove), which calls
mana_gd_cleanup() a second time, attempting to destroy the already-
freed workqueue. Fix this by NULL-checking gc->service_wq in
mana_gd_cleanup() and setting it to NULL after destruction.

tcp: re-enable acceptance of FIN packets when RWIN is 0
Commit 2bd99aef1b19 ("tcp: accept bare FIN packets under memory
pressure") allowed accepting FIN packets in tcp_data_queue() even when
the receive window was closed, to prevent ACK/FIN loops with broken
clients.
Such a FIN packet is in sequence, but because the FIN consumes a
sequence number, it extends beyond the window. Before commit 9ca48d616ed7 ("tcp: do not accept packets beyond window"),
tcp_sequence() only required the seq to be within the window. After
that change, the entire packet (including the FIN) must fit within the
window. As a result, such FIN packets are now dropped and the handling
path is no longer reached.
Be more lenient by not counting the sequence number consumed by the
FIN when calling tcp_sequence(), restoring the previous behavior for
cases where only the FIN extends beyond the window.

In that case VF asks PF to provide link data but as PF doesn't support
it, returns -EOPNOTSUPP what leads to early bail from link configuration
sequence.
Avoid such situation by using legacy VFLINKS approach whenever negotiated
API version is less than 1.6.
To reproduce the issue just create VF and set its link up - adapter must

idpf: change IRQ naming to match netdev and ethtool queue numbering
The code uses the vidx for the IRQ name but that doesn't match ethtool
reporting nor netdev naming, this makes it hard to tune the device and
associate queues with IRQs. Sequentially requesting irqs starting from
'0' makes the output consistent.
This commit changes the interrupt numbering but preserves the name
format, maintaining ABI compatibility. Existing tools relying on the old
numbering are already non-functional, as they lack a useful correlation
to the interrupts.

media: dvb-core: fix wrong reinitialization of ringbuffer on reopen
dvb_dvr_open() calls dvb_ringbuffer_init() when a new reader opens the
DVR device. dvb_ringbuffer_init() calls init_waitqueue_head(), which
reinitializes the waitqueue list head to empty.
Since dmxdev->dvr_buffer.queue is a shared waitqueue (all opens of the
same DVR device share it), this orphans any existing waitqueue entries
from io_uring poll or epoll, leaving them with stale prev/next pointers
while the list head is reset to {self, self}.
The waitqueue and spinlock in dvr_buffer are already properly
initialized once in dvb_dmxdev_init(). The open path only needs to
reset the buffer data pointer, size, and read/write positions.
Replace the dvb_ringbuffer_init() call in dvb_dvr_open() with direct
assignment of data/size and a call to dvb_ringbuffer_reset(), which
properly resets pread, pwrite, and error with correct memory ordering
without touching the waitqueue or spinlock.

phy_led_triggers_registers() does not require the RTNL, it does not
make any calls into the network stack which require protection. There
is also no requirement the PHY has been attached to a MAC, the
triggers only make use of phydev state. This allows the call to
phy_led_triggers_registers() to be placed elsewhere. PHY probe() and
release() don't hold RTNL, so solving the AB-BA deadlock.

net: usb: pegasus: enable basic endpoint checking
pegasus_probe() fills URBs with hardcoded endpoint pipes without
verifying the endpoint descriptors:
- usb_rcvbulkpipe(dev, 1) for RX data
- usb_sndbulkpipe(dev, 2) for TX data
- usb_rcvintpipe(dev, 3) for status interrupts
A malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types
that differ from what the driver assumes.
Add a pegasus_usb_ep enum for endpoint numbers, replacing magic
constants throughout. Add usb_check_bulk_endpoints() and
usb_check_int_endpoints() calls before any resource allocation to
verify endpoint types before use, rejecting devices with mismatched
descriptors at probe time, and avoid triggering assertion.
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.
