Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] net/mlx5e: Avoid unregistering PSP twice
Date: Mon, 1 Dec 2025 17:13:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1764602008-1334866-3-git-send-email-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1764602008-1334866-1-git-send-email-tariqt@nvidia.com>

From: Cosmin Ratiu <cratiu@nvidia.com>

PSP is unregistered twice in:
_mlx5e_remove -> mlx5e_psp_unregister
mlx5e_nic_cleanup -> mlx5e_psp_unregister

This leads to a refcount underflow in some conditions:
------------[ cut here ]------------
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1694 at lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0xd8/0xe0
[...]
 mlx5e_psp_unregister+0x26/0x50 [mlx5_core]
 mlx5e_nic_cleanup+0x26/0x90 [mlx5_core]
 mlx5e_remove+0xe6/0x1f0 [mlx5_core]

 bus_remove_device+0xc6/0x130
 device_del+0x159/0x3c0
 mlx5_rescan_drivers_locked+0xbc/0x2a0 [mlx5_core]
[...]

Do not directly remove psp from the _mlx5e_remove path, the PSP cleanup
happens as part of profile cleanup.
