Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] qla2xxx: Warn if done() or free() are called on an already freed srb
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2020 18:18:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200831161854.70879-2-dwagner@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200831161854.70879-1-dwagner@suse.de>

Emit a warning when ->done or ->free are called on an already freed
srb. There is a hidden use-after-free bug in the driver which corrupts
the srb memory pool which originates from the cleanup callbacks. By
explicitly resetting the callbacks to NULL, we workaround the memory
corruption.

An extensive search didn't bring any lights on the real problem. The
initial idea was to set both pointers to NULL and try to catch invalid
accesses. But instead the memory corruption was gone and the driver
didn't crash.
