Subject: [PATCH v2] RDMA/rxe: Fix double free in rxe_srq_from_init
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 01:54:12 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260112015412.29458-1-jiashengjiangcool@gmail.com> (raw)
In rxe_srq_from_init(), the queue pointer 'q' is assigned to
'srq->rq.queue' before copying the SRQ number to user space.
If copy_to_user() fails, the function calls rxe_queue_cleanup()
to free the queue, but leaves the now-invalid pointer in
'srq->rq.queue'.
The caller of rxe_srq_from_init() (rxe_create_srq) eventually
calls rxe_srq_cleanup() upon receiving the error, which triggers
a second rxe_queue_cleanup() on the same memory, leading to a
double free.
The call trace looks like this:
kmem_cache_free+0x.../0x...
rxe_queue_cleanup+0x1a/0x30 [rdma_rxe]
rxe_srq_cleanup+0x42/0x60 [rdma_rxe]
rxe_elem_release+0x31/0x70 [rdma_rxe]
rxe_create_srq+0x12b/0x1a0 [rdma_rxe]
ib_create_srq_user+0x9a/0x150 [ib_core]
Fix this by moving 'srq->rq.queue = q' after copy_to_user.
Fixes: aae0484e15f0 ("IB/rxe: avoid srq memory leak")

Changelog:
v1 -> v2:
1. Move both 'srq->rq.queue = q' and 'init->attr.max_wr = srq->rq.max_wr'
after copy_to_user().
2. Add call trace for better understanding of the issue.
