Subject: [PATCH] net: prestera: return error on hash table init failure
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 14:20:26 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260914112026.2822222-1-enachman@marvell.com> (raw)
From: Elad Nachman <enachman@marvell.com>
prestera_router_hw_init() calls rhashtable_destroy() on error but then
still returns success. This causes prestera_router_init() to continue
without error, going through line 1623, and call
prestera_router_hw_fini(sw), which will cause dereferencing of freed memory
'sw->router->nexthop_group_ht.tbl' at line 1560.
Fixes: 0a23ae237171 ("net: marvell: prestera: Add router nexthops ABI")
