Subject: [PATCH 2/6] dmaengine: idxd: fix duplicate memory frees on initialization error path
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2026 14:38:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261012-wt-idxd-fixes-v1-2-30a35a445077@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261012-wt-idxd-fixes-v1-0-30a35a445077@intel.com>

From: Steve Wahl <steve.wahl@hpe.com>

Error paths within idxd_pci_probe_alloc and related functions end up
attempting to free memory already freed from idxd_conf_device_release
via put_device.

This was encountered running in a kexec'd kdump kernel with reduced
resources, causing the "Device is HALTED!" branch in
idxd_device_init_reset to be taken.

In idxd_free and idxd_alloc, do not attempt to free allocations that
will already have been freed.
